Thanks for this script KWS. I have been using it for 1 yr plus and has been working great. One thing that I just noticed is that I can't update cpu load for programs. I am using 10.7.4 and whether I open the main.scpt manually or through "Open RIP 10.7.x.app" when I make the change from example to add HandBrake to the list of Finder and Diskutility already present, the change stays till I reboot. On reboot, the program returns to its default values of Finder and Disk Utility only. My addition of Handbrake disappears. Do you have any idea as to why this is happening and what I can do to prevent it? Thanks.

I have no clue. I tried it here on 10.8 and it works ....

If you select in Finder go to Folder and paste

/Library/Scripts/RIP3Lion.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/

and doubleclick on main.scpt it should be possible to change the script and save it.
If not, try to copy RIP3Lion.app to your desktop, change main.scpt and copy it back (overwrite) to /Library/Scripts/.

Hi KWS, ive been using your rip3lion on 10.8 and i have to say it works really good, but i have one issue that i hope u can solve for me....
i use plex media server on the same mac as rip3lion , and it streams all my media to various iPads/iphones.
the only problem i have is that the second a movie stops playingon the iPad,,the mac sleeps,which is okay  but i have to keep waking via bluetooth mouse if i want to watch another movie or episode.
i have added the plex media server to the script, but i find uses almost zero cpu resources, while browsing the plex library...
ive tried modifying your code but with no positive results...
any help here would be appreciated

It is possible to ask if plex is running and stop the script ... questioning for plex playing needs applescript-support in the prog which (i think) is not given yet.
So you need to look in activity-monitor for the running prog's name and add these lines (changing PLEX to the real name in activity-monitor) somewhere behind DVD-Player-section:

tell application "System Events"
if exists process "PLEX" then
return
end if
end tell
