i got one dvd to work, but when i tried another one, every 5-10 seconds the sound stops and then starts again, does this throughout the whole movie, any ideas to make it stop? i followed the tutorial exactly.
the error says "Sample not found or audio decoding error. It happens sometimes at beginning or end of movie select continue will fill audio buffer with blank. Continue?"
i tried loading up Disc 1 of a TV show season. i could only find one file that was longer than 10 seconds, and it was 22 mins, so i assume thats only one episode. when trying to preview the video before converting, it comes up with a black and green screen that wont play. any ideas?
btw, thanks so much for everyone who puts up with these questions and actually answers them. rock on!

this is great, I've been able to convert a few movies with no problems. I do have (another) q. I've noticed that when I'm selecting the IFO the first one comes up w/ no time at all and the only one that shows enough time for the movie is the movie w/ commentary. I have DVD43, is there another way to get around this? Thanks in advance.
I think it would be cool (and a massive undertaking) for someone here to hack it up so that only the necessities are there, letting users choose 'best quality', 'good quality', or 'worst quality', and just have it start ripping and encoding.

Try selecting a different audio track (third screenshot)
hey, ive just joined this forum after looking at some of the tutorials and messages and theyve been very useful, especially this one (thanks Anachostic)
HOWEVER! when i tried to rip one of my surf movies it cut out at the 22 minute mark and its a 31 minute film, so i did it again and it cut out about 10 seconds later than my first attempt! so could someone please give me some advice, im using the 2.10 version of the software. i pretty much did exactly what the tutorial said, sound and picture is great but it just cuts out..
or perhaps you could suggest another FREE program i could use.?
help is needed pretty quickly as im heading overseas again in a couple of weeks.
Anyone know if DVDx is compatible with a DVD-RAM disk recorded using a stand alone DVD recorder?
If it is written in standard DVD format, it should be. Are you asking because it is not working? If you haven't tried, why haven't you? It won't break anything.
One thing that could prevent a good rip is that your DVD drive in your computer doesn't read DVD-RAM, but if you've got a fairly current drive, they usually read +R, -R, and RAM

I have had this happen on some DVDs. Not any as short as you describe. Before you start encoding, try moving the tracking slder about half-way through the movie. That will be that starting point of the encode. See if it does a full encode of the remaining time on the movie. If not, there might be a glitch right in that section that DVDx can't handle.
If that's the case, maybe ripping the DVD to a file using DVDShrink then encoding the file might do it.
arghhhh
