Answer 1

Answer 2

dvdfab is just a ripper

try a program called dvdshrink....it's outdated but still pretty useful. Use the open files button at the top and point to your video_ts folder fab created.

Shrink is outdated so it doesn't handle the newer encryptions...dvdfab decrypter is just a ripper and the hope is that you'll pay for the upgrade to platinum edition. You can still just use it as a ripper and then load the files into shrink.

Also, shrink doesn't have it's own burning engine....it relies on nero for the actual writing stage so it's a good idea to have that installed as well.

Answer 3

I am using DVDFab Platinum so there may be some differences.

But when ripping the DVD finishes, I have a folder with the movie name which contains 2 folders: "AUDIO_TS" and "VIDEO_TS". "AUDIO_TS" is empty and not used (but must be included for DVD compliance).
In "VIDEO_TS" there are VIDEO_TS.IFO and VTS_01_0.IFO. These are the "control" files which tells your DVD player how to play the movie, indexing, etc. (The BUP files are backup duplicates of these files).

The movie is contained in the VOB files (usually VTS_01_1.VOB through VTS_01_5.VOB...if you have extras such as previews there will be VTS_02_1.VOB, etc). Depending on the length of the movie, there may be up to 5 of these VOB files (for a DVD-5 disc...more for a DVD-9).

I have been using "Intervideo WinDVD" to play my dumped movies. All I have to do with "WinDVD" is to load the "VIDEO_TS" file and it will automatically play the movie.

I'm not sure if you can do this with Windows Media Player. I don't care for Windows Media Player and so never use it.

Answer 4

Check the properties of the files by right-clicking and properties. T\Some of them will have a size of 1+ GB. These are the video files. Open these files in any player such as windows media player and the video will start playing.
