I haven't used this feature in a long while.  To be clear, it only works on non-protected DVDs, which is almost NO commercially available DVD discs from the MPAA studios (almost all of which are encrypted with CSS).  Still shouldn't be locking up though... Perhaps someone can comment who has used it in MC recently...

I use DVD Fab Decrypter for ripping DVDs.  It works quite well and does handle CSS-protected DVDs without issue.

Glynor, while we are on this topic I would appreciate some advice...

I am not well educated on audio formats (all my systems at home are only 2 channel).

When ripping a DVD that has both 5.1 Dolby and 2 channel Dolby is there ever a good reason to keep both audio tracks or is the best decision to only keep the 5.1 audio? (thus minimizing the video compression).
