Creative Centrale won't let me rip DVDs

I just purchased a Zen X-Fi2, which came with the Creative Centrale software (I have even downloaded version.5.08)? Every time I attempt to rip, or even preview, a DVD with Creative Centrale I receive the message "Unable to rip/preview DVD.DVD decoder that is required is not found on your computer."? My OS is Windows XP and I have WMP , Windows Media Center, InterActual Player 2.0, RealPlayer, QuickTime Player on my computer.
I thought Creative Centrale was supposed to give me the ability to rip my DVDs for viewing on the Zen X-Fi2. It is not acting accordingly. Any ideas, other than purchasing additional software?
Thanks.

You can't rip protected DVDs with Creative Centrale. You'll have to rip the DVD iso image to your hard dri've first with something like DVD Decrypter, then use a virtual drive to mount that image.
Then use Creative Centrale to rip from the virtual dri've.

  • Hi, im tinkering with mpeg streamclip and its giving me problems because it won't open my ripped dvd files from my desktop. It keeps giving me the same message "no VOB files can be found". Can anyone help me, this doesn't make sense.

    hi, im tinkering with mpeg streamclip and its giving me problems because it won't open my ripped dvd files from my desktop. It keeps giving me the same message "no VOB files can be found". Can anyone help me, this doesn't make sense. I also found online that you need Apple Mpeg-2 playback component in order to use mpeg streamclip. Even though I have OS X Lion, should I download the add-on?

    You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    which is free, but you must also have the  Apple mpeg2 plugin :
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
    (unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
    which is a mere $20.
    Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
    http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
    which costs $25.
    For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
    Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
    And from the TOU of these forums:
    Keep within the Law
    No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
    Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
    If you are running Lion:
    From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
    The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
    To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
    The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

  • Creative Cloud won't let me reinstall Photoshop CC?

    I installed the free trial 7 days ago, so I still have 23 days left.
    I uninstalled it 4 days ago and I've been trying to install it again, but it doesn't let me install it when I click the 'Try' option next to Photoshop. Instead, it comes up with a message saying something about Creative Cloud and doesn't let me install it.

    Hi kirstymcinch,
    Sign out from the Creative Cloud app. Exit. Relaunch and try.
    In case you still face issues try solution 2 and 3 from the Kb : http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html

  • IPhoto 6.0.6 update won't let me burn DVDs correctly

    I was backing up my photos to DVD today via iPhoto. I burned one disc before I did the 10.4.9 update and it worked fine. After I downloaded and installed the 10.4.9 & iPhoto updates I go to burn a disc and it says the Burn Failed. So, I put in the disc again. Mac OS X saw it was a blank DVD so I tried again. Still! - it won't burn!
    So I try another blank DVD, and then another - each time the disc is inserted it's seen as a blank DVD. I don't understand it. It's the same brand I used before the 10.4.9 update & iPhoto and now suddenly Im having problems.
    I'm guessing one of the updates (or both of them) changed something. Because now I can't backup my photos to a DVD. I tried repairing permissions and even restarting my iMac. Is anybody else having the same problem?
    I am running Mac OS X 10.4.9 and iPhoto version: 6.0.6 (322)
    Here are screenshots of the different errors I get, first the one, then the other.

    http://www.stevenmatarazzo.com/images/iphoto-burn-error2.jpg
    Any help would be wonderful, I just need to burn the last disc to complete my iPhoto backup.

    Ok big update. I burned another album using iPhoto and it worked fine. Seems that this problem is not isolated to burning discs, it's isolated to copying these files all together. Something is fishy and I have no idea what's wrong.
    I attempted to copy all of the 4,000 (from the album I wanted to burn originally) or so photos to my external Hard Drive. It was about to copy them when I get an error message saying "IM000914_1.JPG" is busy. That's it - it doesn't give me any options, but "OK" I click OK and the process stops. So I remove the file in question. I go to copy the photos again, bam! Another problem with a different file name. I can't understand what's going on. So at this point I re-built the Library and Thumbnail caches again. I try it again - same problem.
    The similarities between the files are interesting. All were taken around 2004 and were transfered from my old iBook a while ago. They usually have a filter or were modified from the original. And all of the file names end with an underscore and a number, for example "_1.jpg" or "_2.jpg". There are no other programs that are using these file so this puzzles me why they would be in use.
    If I try and copy the individual file that's "busy" it will copy fine. But if I select it as a group and try and copy, it gives me an error message and fails to copy. I wish there was a way to locate which out of the 4,000 + files are bad, but the album I have is mixed with photos from 2004 to 2005. It would be impossible to locate all of them by hand. I'm thinking maybe if I can somehow copy the files from the select album via FireWire Target disk mode maybe the files wouldn't be "In use" - but I can't think of a way to select all of the photos in the album out of iPhoto.
    I'm confused and frustrated with this one, any help would be great.
    The exact error message reads "The selected items cannot all be put into the same location, because at least one of them named "<filename>" is busy. [OK]
    Thanks again!

  • Creative Cloud won't let me launch apps

    had In Design trial > it ended > bought membership for Creative Cloud > downloaded app manager > it says ID is installed but on launch it asks for license as if I never  bought membership >> what is going on?

    Does "I can't get it downloaded" mean that the Adobe Application Manager still shows InDesign as installed after uninstalling it?
    If so you can run the Adobe Cleaner Tool which you can get from here http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html.

  • Creative Cloud won't let me continue?

    I downloaded the free trial of creative cloud and used an email that I did not know was recently deactivated. Now, I am unable to even open the creative cloud without "confirming" this email, but cannot confirm because it no longer exists. I have tried to create a new account, uninstall and delete all files of creative cloud that previously existed on my laptop, and everything possible to be able to have a trial of creative cloud and other programs. I don't know how to
    detach this deactivated email from creative cloud on my computer. I also tried to reinstall creative cloud and when it popped up, it still told me to confirm that email. Please help!!

    Please provide the old Adobe ID which has been deactivated as well as the new one with which you tried to create Adobe ID by private messaging., I shall get it followed up certainly.

  • DVD Studio Pro 2 Won't let me burn DVDs

    I've finished my project and it looks good. I even ran it through the simulator and everything checks out. However, when I go to burn it to DVD (4.7 GB), I get a dialog box that says that I need to insert a DVD, even though one is already in. Then I get another dialog box that tells me that the disc could not be burned because the drive could not be located...? Each time I attempt to burn the DVD, the disc gets automatically ejected by my computer when these dialog boxes pop up
    How do I locate a drive that I can burn the disc in? What's the process for this? Is there another step that I must take before I can get to this process. I'm using DVD Studio Pro 2 and I have a mac mini with a superdrive. Please walk me through the process step-by-step. Thanks.

    Also is it -R or +R?

  • Creative Cloud isn't letting me re-install programs.

    I just got a new free trial for Creative Suite because I am a student, but I have had some free trials downloaded and installed on my computer before. When I tried to install programs like Premiere Pro or Photoshop with the Creative Cloud desktop app, it just tells me that I need to update them. Somehow the programs got deleted off of my computer, so I need to re-install all of them, but Creative Cloud won"t let me because it thinks I already have them installed. I dont know what to do because I cannot install them.

    This is what the log says:

    It means your file is too large to fit on a single layer disk.
    Recompress to keep the overall size (audio,video and menus) below 4.5GB
