    Well, I rented this DVD yesterday and attempted to back up a single copy for myself and what happened next is what we'll be discussing. After using Shrink to analyze and encode or compress this film I moved to back-up the movie to my hard drive and got a pop-up that said the disc was still encrypted with DVD43 active through the process? Well, I use some of the alternative tactics I've learned here and created an ISO image file using NERO Burning-Rom which allowed me to create a copy to DVD disc. Now the strange thing is this ISO image to DVD media copy is also encrypted? Now what initially seemed to be a successful alternative in the ISO image file, turns out may not be the answer. I'm here to tell everyone that this process fed me a couple coasters which I attribute again to the tricky encryption found on this DVD. I ask that no one here remind me that I'm a newbie with regards to what I have experienced. I am inviting any and all to rent or purchase this film and witness 1st hand this trouble I have discribed as opposed to assumimg you already know. Keep in mind this is a new DVD release and it is very possible that I have encountered a new form of encryption used to keep us all from making copies of anykind for any reason. Chime in people, let me know what you think. The movie was produce by 1st Look.

    can't help you as you're talking in a public forum about renting a movie and having trouble copying it....that's not overly wise...

    I think you let the DVD title "CONVICTED":) scare you away from the post. My topic is about encryption, I'm not asking for help just some dialog relative to the topic. The same feedback anyone gets here at this forum. Whoa, easy man. Check your own post links, don't be hypocrite?

    I think he meant to say he purchased the DVD from a rental store that was selling off excess stock.

    Creaky, ya kidding me. "Rent" Not met in the alley for brown bag transaction before the street date. Just look around, there are countlesss topics going on right now involving discussions about backing up a single copy of a movie. They also have made mention of the movie rental outlets that they aquire these movies from. Have you seriously viewed your links. I'm just a regular member here having a discussion....That's all. Let's get back to the topic.

    i'm not gonna get into an argument here, but what do you mean "have i reviewed my links" and "Let's get back on topic here". if there's other threads with talk of renting films to copy then it needs reporting as this site, while very 'modern re it's topics, does NOT advocate piracy.

    And no, i'm not kidding. if there are other discussions re renting stuff and copying then they're only here cus no-one reported or noticed them. Discussion is fine, rent-to-copy is not

    there's no special protection on this dvd. dvd decryptor and dvd shrink handled it without any problems

    Yeah, I get it. A play on words or verbage...But I do seem to remember a recent discussion here where members "Openly" discussed movies being released early to movie rental outlet employees for view and guess what else................Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Come on let's move on quit the paranoya man. The fact that we all have a means of backing up movies if you get what I mean, could be seen as questionable (To put it lightly) amongst other things. Again let's loose the semantics, and just talk.

    Whoooooooooo (Sigh) If I can start all over. Please disregard the comments above that do not pertain directly to the topic below (Including mine).

    Well, I bought (Cough!) this DVD yesterday and attempted to back up a single copy for myself and what happened next is what we'll be discussing. After using Shrink to analyze and encode or compress this film I moved to back-up the movie to my hard drive and got a pop-up that said the disc was still encrypted with DVD43 active through the process? Well, I use some of the alternative tactics I've learned here and created an ISO image file using NERO Burning-Rom which allowed me to create a copy to DVD disc.

    Read two lines up from "enrage". He was able to copy it. Looks like you bought (cough) a disk with a bad pressing.

    @enrage...Please explain (Using what?). I have never came accross the trouble I described. Again using standard SHRINK to NERO method of backing up this DVD does not work. And ISO is an option, but it does with problems i.e. Likely coasters produced while attempting. Also as I mentioned the encryption remains on the copy (Now this I've seen before).

    @rocky999....SONY DVD-R as always as of late. I ask that you not piggyback, try it yourself. CONVICTED by the way is a good suspense drama, thriller worth watching. Oh might I add a new discovery. DVD43 does not even attempt to remove the encryption from the SONY dvd-r copy I have. The error reads as follows:

    NERO RECODE2 Encountered an error and cannot continue.

    This DVD is copy-protected!

    Copy protection error- The read failed because the sector is encrypted.


    I'm not dreaming this stuff people. Check it out for yourselves.

    @paradyme
    rip in file mode when using DVD Decryptor and then select Open Files in DVD Shrink

    dont even try to use dvd43 if your getting errors.

    if your still getting errors when using dvdd or shrink then its probably a bad press

    Thanx...enrage. This looks like it might work (I'm trying it now). But what do you make of this sort of encryption. I mean for me, your suggestion would be considered a back door or secondary option for me. I'm used to using my 3 favorites DVD43,SHRINK then NERO RECODE2. This encryption method on this disc is new to me. What's really smart is to encrypted the copy. Hmm that's genius. Somebody's on their job. I just might need to email Slysoft for a copy of AnyDVD that is, if it works.

    "SUCCESS"...............But Decrypter even found it strange as it indicated in the pop-up that gave me my decrypting options. Thanx again engage.

    well thats a bit late unless you had edited your post at the top.yOUR posts indicate you advocate piracy.Thats not what this site is about.Maybe you should consider thinking about how you post in future, and when something is pointed out to you politely cut the lip.

    Your comments have been referred to admin for verification, as to see if you are right or wrong

    have a nice day

    Again, Stop with the semantics. What are you using your DVD burner and decrypter software for? Home movies? I don't think so. Besides that was not my reason for starting the thread. I got the feedback I needed. That was all. Seems like we have a couple members who like to police paragraghs for attention. If your don't like my phrasing, don't reply. Happy burning.
