RE: [OT] Great DVD Ripper for Mac OSX

["Phil Harris" <phil@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Been using that a couple of weeks ... It's a bit basic and pretty flaky.

It can't handle discs that don't match the region setting of your drive and
it seems to bomb out quite easily ... One other thing that annoys me hugely
with it is that it insists that on each "new" DVD I slip into the
drive it
will reset the "Extract only main feature" option to
"Extract Entire Disc"
which necessitates several clicks to get to and to change back each time.

Personally I don't think it's a patch on AnyDVD/CloneDVD on a PC..
