oneiric Also, I'm pretty sure I've done enough de-css stuff to allow me to rip my encrypted dvds. – John Baber-Lucero Jul 05 '12 at 01:00

The latest DVD copy protections aren't done with CSS but with bad sectors on the DVD that make ripping programs crash. – Béné Jul 05 '12 at 16:28

That might be a bug in the software. Have you tried using a different application? I use Handbrake and have only had good experiences so far. (They don't have a dev for 12.04 yet, but the 11.10 version works perfectly on 12.04.)
If your DVD is copy protected Handbrake will most likely also fail. To still make a copy of your DVD you could try this slightly more complicated method.

It would be nicer if you write the name of the app that you are using.
Anyway use Handbrake, this application is modern and supports a much more efficient and scalable codec, Handbrake also support the old AVI container for some legacy use like ripping a file for playing it in your video player that only accept AVI files.

The name of the app I'm using is dvdrip. Is dvd::rip something different? – John Baber-Lucero Jul 05 '12 at 01:00
