Since a couple fo weeks I'm using the PlayOn! HD Mini, and this thing works like a charm.
I'm now planning on storing all the DVD's I own on my workstation in the attic, and share them so that I can stream them to the PlayOn!.
However, the PlayOn! does not support CSS encrypted DVDs (both ISO as well as the VIDEO_TS folders).

What's the best tool to simply copy a DVD bit by bit to an ISO and remove the CSS encryption from it ?

I'm now trying out CloneDVD, but that one isn't capable of copying "P!nk - Live from Wembley Arena"....[oO] (Or my DVD player in the PC is broken...)

Any advice?

BTW ; there's no need to re-encode the video's (at this time) ; I'll just use 1:1 copies, except for the CSS crap...

Download DVD Decrypter (EOL) and RIP those dvd's with that program. It will remove the CSS for you.

I'll give it a try tonight.
I'm also going to try out Handbrake : http://handbrake.fr/details.php
As I have VLC Player installed, it should work:

Encrypted DVDs ¶

HandBrake does not include any code to decrypt commercial DVDs. Yes, we know, it used to, but it doesn't anymore.

However, we respect your right to take matters into your own hands.

In Mac OS X, if HandBrake detects you have installed the open source VLC media player in your root /Applications folder, it will ask you if you want to decrypt DVDs using that application's copy of the libdvdcss library. If you are using a 32-bit copy of HandBrake, it can only work with a 32-bit copy of VLC, and a 64-bit copy of HandBrake can only work with a 64-bit copy of VLC.

Similarly, in Linux, if you've chosen to install the open source libdvdcss library on your system, HandBrake will allow libdvdread to use it for decryption.

I use DVD Decrypter, sometimes it will popup saying it can't decrypt it, but has never seemed to prevent it from making the copy

\o/ DVD Decrypter works as a CHARM! [mylord]

Now I can finally empty those shelves and archive the DVDs.
Anyone interested in my current HDD-recorder/DVD recorder? In a couple of days I won't have any use for it. [;)]
