Title: MC 17 doesn't rip Blu-Ray!
Post by: drc on November 18, 2011, 09:06:27 pm
I have not used MC to rip any CD/DVD, but now i'm interested and getting error message:  Failed to Rip.

I'm trying to rip a blu-ray DVD.  Does MC17 actually rip?  If so, am I missing an encoder I'm not aware of.

It doesn't give any reason, just that it failed.  I downloaded a free SW trial (Pavtube) works find, but would rather use MC17 if it can perform the function.

The Blu-Ray plays fine, just can't rip.

Are you using ANYDVD HD to read the disc?  Try updating it.

No I'm not using AnyDVD HD... I did see the trial... 

I was under the impression MC had it's own Rip function.  As I said I don't do a lot of ripping... 

I inserted the Blu-Ray it said do you want to play or rip, I selected Rip...  I guess the question is , what does AnyDVD have to do with anything?

Thanks!!!

Try a Google search for information about AnyDVD, etc.

MC just copies the files, but they aren't readable without special software that can read the disc.

AnyDVD HD removes the copy protection.
