Damion,
There's a problem with the tutorial about using DVD Decrypter and AutoGK: you never specify that you need to switch DVD Decrypter's mode to IFO instead of File. It starts in File mode by default. I followed your directions (not switching to IFO mode) and of course did not end up with an IFO file, only one VOB file. I tried converting this to AVI anyway, and it worked, but it was only one segment of the movie. Being a complete and utter newbie at this, I had to search around online before I finally found a site that showed a screenshot of the Mode menu, from which I was able to guess that's what I needed to change. So I finally got it working, but you may want to amend your original tutorial if you can to add that very important step. Other than that, it was great. Thanks very much for showing a free way to rip DVDs. Is there any advantage of DVD Decrypter over DVD Shrink?
Unfortunately, I cannot get Windows Media Encoder to work. I follow all the steps exactly, but when I click Start Encoding it pops up a box saying it encountered errors and can't encode the file. If I look at the error log, all it tells me is that it encountered unsupported or corrupt data, which is not helpful at all. If I then try to click start encoding a second time, the program crashes. Do you have any idea why this might be and how I can fix it?
Thanks,
Zoe
