What is Mac the Ripper is there a way to download it?

im trying to copy a dvd to my hard drive and i need to have Mac the Ripper and i dont know what that is and how do i use it.

Try Google or one of the other excellent search engines. I agree with the other posting about 'ripping commercial DVDs', but it does have a legitimate use for backing up DVDs - for example those which might be damaged by children's sticky fingers.

  • Is there a version of Mac the Ripper for Os X Lion?

    I'm trying to rip some of my DVD's so that I can watch them on my IPhone.  I have heard that Mac the Ripper is the best for this, but I can't find a version that works with Os X Lion.  Does anyone know if there's a new version available, and if so, where I can find it?
    Thanks,
    Jaws

    Sorry, but discussions about ripping of copy-protected DVDs is prohibited here the Communities Terms of Use. You'll have to ask about this on some other discussions site.
    Regards.

  • G5 10.5.8 + Mac the Ripper + Popcorn 2

    I had Mac the Ripper and Popcorn 2 before I got my latest computer and hadn't tried to use it until now. I'm having trouble getting Popcorn to work for me.
    Mac the Ripper is working just fine and I'm able to use Mpeg Streamclip to export video into a format that can be added to my iTunes library but those same movies can't be seen by my apple TV and also can't be imported to my iPod video.
    When I try to export movies using Popcorn 2 so that they can be viewed on my iPod it just hangs there and does nothing.
    I'm just curious if anyone else has had success with upgrade versions of Popcorn? The newest version is 4 but I want to know it will work before buying it.
    Thanks for any help

    I prefer using Handbrake for compatibility with iTunes.

    Sorry ... I read but was unfortunately distracted from your original post.  You have a system that came with Lion.  The Lion that is on your system is only for your computer and cannot be downloaded from the app store again because you never purchased it officially through the App Store.
    Try this for making an external USB/DVD copy of Recovery on an external disk.  internet is still required for reinstall, though, I believe: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4848.  But at least you have a separate Recovery Partition if you ever need a fully new and empty internal disk.
    Your assumption is incorrect. Although he may not be able to download it from the App store he can download it directly for the Apple servers using the recovery partition on his original drive.
    All you have to do is start the install routine and then point the install to an external hard drive. Once the download is finished the computer will reboot to start the install. At that reboot disconnect the external drive so the install can not start. Boot the computer back into the OS on the internal hard drive, which is what will happen automatically once the external drive is disconnected. Then connect the external and copy the files from it that were downloaded. Right click on that downloaded package file and select Show contents. In the contents of that package is a file called InstallESD.DMG. Copy that file out of the package and burn it down to a DVD or USB thumb drive and you now have the Full Lion Installer. I have several of them laying around on different hard drives and 2 USB thumb drives which I have used to reinstall Lion on my 15" MBP.
    Sorry OP I should of just typed this out in my first post.

  • Converting Mac the Ripper files for editing in FCE

    Is there a way to convert a file that's been '"ripped" from a DVD, into video and audio that can be editied in FCE. I was told that it can be done, but can't find anyone who knows how in the DVD forum.
    Nothing illegal. I have programs of my own on DVD, and I'm trying to set-up a stock footage library that I can easily pull from and add to new videos.

    If Mac the Ripper has created a folder of "VOB" files you can use MPEG Streamclip or Handbrake to decode and demux them (they're MPEG-2 files) to a format that FCE can work with. Convert to Quicktime Movie using DV (DV, DVC/PRO-NTSC), Apple Intermediate, Animation, or Video as the codecs (and set quality to highest/best). Set the frame rate (29.97 for NTSC, 25 for PAL) - don't leave it set to "current", you'll likely have sync problems later.
    For anything other than DV, don't forget to convert the audio along with the video. AIFF, 16 bit, 48kHz if the destination is FCE (the original audio is more than likely 44.1kHz which FCE would have to render).

  • Importing Video into iMovie using Mac the Ripper

    How do I import video into iMovie using Mac the Ripper? I ripped the video content onto my computer but it was not converted into a file that I can import.

    I think it's trend for all users since we can get more funny from digital life. Also it's necessary sometimes for us to save our video or dvd files with other methods, i have no idea but use something like converters.To my experience, mactheripper is not what you want,maybe you can try this dvd ripper for mac.Maybe ripper is illegal, but i just get my oringinal files, and i want to do more with it, that's just it!

  • Playing DVDs created from Mac the Ripper...workflow?

    I've used Mac the Ripper to copy a DVD I have. What is the workflow on how to make that file folder that has Audio_TS and Video_TS (created from Mac the Ripper) onto another DVD AND make it self-play once it gets inserted into the player?
    Thanks!

    If you have rights/permission to copy the DVD, make a Disc Image then burn another copy from the Finder.

    Or, if the original disc isn't set for the track to be the "first play," you can use MPEG Streamclip to demux the audio and video, then use those files as assets in a new DVD-SP project for reauthoring.
    Either way, I would not recommend using Mac the Ripper.

  • VOB File Converting? Mac the Ripper & Youtube

    I have a audition running about 11 minutes on DVD. Broken up into 3 chapters. I am using Mac the Ripper. The file is a VOB?. Very large about 743.50mb. I want to load on computer and upload to Youtube. Problem is the file seems to big?. Also when i go into movie folder it devides into 6 seperate folders but the 743+ file is there. How do I make this smaller and than burn on to mac and upload to Youtube. Thanks

  • Why do my converters (dvd ripper & mac the ripper) only recognise 14mins?

    I have a dvd (50mins of footage) that i need to extract however both dvd ripper and mac the ripper only register 14mins of the 50mins worth of footage. The dvd plays fine however this problem occurs when trying to convert the (private) dvd (has no copy protection). Mac the ripper has just come up with a warning saying the dvd has been made with delibrate bad sectors.... what does this mean? What does padding the dvd mean?
    Thanks!

    Since you posted this in the FCE forum, should we assume you plan to edit the footage from the DVD? If so, use MPEG Streamclip or DVDxDV to convert the DVD's VOB files to an editable format that FCE works with natively.

  • Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

    Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

    To download your pages from MobileMe simply mount your iDisk.
    Then navigate to the Web > Sites folder where the pages are.
    You can't do anything with them however, since iWeb cannot import them. But it's nice to know that you can download them.
    You need the domain.sites2 files, iWeb uses to store its assets. Perhaps you have a backup?
    See this page for pictures and movies to learn how to use the domain file :

  • I accidentally put a passcode lock on my iPhone and I forgot what I set for it, is there a way to take it off without accessing the phone? I have restored my phone but it doesn't work, is there anybody that could help me please?

    I accidentally put a passcode lock on my iPhone and I forgot what I set for it, is there a way to take it off without accessing the phone? I have restored my phone but it doesn't work, is there anybody that could help me please?

    You can't "accidentally" put a passcode on any iPhone...its a multi-step process. Further, restoring an iPhone will remove the passcode, as the passcode is not included in an iPhone backup.
    Are you sure you're talking about the phone passcode & not something else...like the "Restrictions" passcode?
