mac the ripper dies for me after detecting the DVD and reading the title information. Probebly some issue with direct hardware access or something like that.

ok....

i am on the hunt for a dvd ripper and i can't find any....

since patchburn has something to do with iDVD 4, would it be feasible to download iDVD 4 and run the patch? would that work?

 

iDVD is not a DVD ripping app. I don't think anyone has gotten iDVD to work yet on the intel Macs, so I think that's a pointless venture.

 

Unfortunately, the author of MacTheRipper had to take his site down because he's in trouble with Macrovision. Don't expect any updates anytime soon... :(

MacTheRipper is back up and running with a new site:

 

It's at dubya dubya dubya dot releasethedogs dot com slash mtr

Have you guys tried Handbrake? There's a unibin availiable. The trick is to play your DVD in the Apple DVD player, hit pause and then rip.

I decided to use Handbrake to test the performance of my system, and I was a little disappointed.

 

On my Dual-Processor G4 (2x 533) it takes about 24 hours to rip with 2-pass (AAC 5-channel, de-interlace, MP4 quicktime).

 

On the P4 (2.6) it takes 12 hours. Both are running 0.7 natively. I would have expected the P4 setup to have been about 4x faster, considering the much faster clockspeed, the faster memory bus (133MHz vs. DDR333 [or 400?]), etc.

 

Interestingly enough, MacTheRipper is faster in Rosetta on the P4 than natively on my G4... go figure.

If anyone has a problem to find MacTheRipper ( the last version, 2.6.6 ) it still can be found at http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Utilities/MacTheRipper.shtml or on a torrent on Dem0n01d site.

 

Does anyone has the 3.0 developers version that was never publicly available?
