    Spiderman is known to give issues on audio...for example the directors commentary.
    There are at least 4 different actor/director commentaries on Spiderman - D'oh !

    My method:

    DVD Decrypter (Movie-only) in IFO Mode or Smartripper in FILE Mode
    DVD2One (take all audio if need be but I chose only top option which was AC3 6CH)
    Nero 5.5.10.20 [DVD-Video] in UDF Mode

    hope this helps

    No I dont stream , I rip / unencrypt VOB BUP IFO files mate.
    In Decrypter that is MODE tab then IFO read or alternatively you can run Smartripper and hit FILE button and choose the main movie IFO to go with the VOB's that are pre-selected.
    In Nero go to options/properties [cant remember which now] and selct UDF only to start & if you encounter playback problems on stand alone machine maybe try UDF/IFO

    Yup, Indecent Proposal......spent many a night banging head against wall over that one!!
    Found success when I ripped the guts out intact with dvd decrypter, then Using dvd shrink in reauthor mode, cropped the start and end to remove all the credits etc therefore allowing enough space for 6ch audio with a level 6 compressionon the video.
    Burnt the resulting file using nero.....np

    The 2ch on the main movie appears to relate to the directors commentry. That worked fine for me, i guess you could also get the same results using dvd2one....good luck, I hope this helps you.

    Cheers, Brento.
