[SOLVED] DVD rip k9

[kilbertr]

I am using k9copy to rip dvd.

No matter what i do, i cant seem to get this program working.
this is the console error:
ibdvdnav: DVD Title (Alternative): ]

]
[libdvdnav: Unable to find map file '/home/kilbert/.dvdnav/DVD_VIDEO.map'
]
[libdvdnav: DVD disk reports itself with Region mask 0x00000000. Regions:]

[Option lavfopts: Unknown suboption i_certify_that_my_video_stream_does_not_use_b_fram es
]
[Error parsing option on the command line: -lavfopts


from what i gather the last problem (suboption) is ok as it is for backwards compatibility

as for the other... i have no clue.
I thought the dvd drive came region encoded (it was a windows machine at one time) and the dvds i am trying to rip are all locally bought dvd (region1)
I have libdvdcss installed
any help is appreciated

Well the region doesn't matter too much anymore, libdvdcss ignores the region and access the disc as a block device as far as I am aware (I could be wrong). Is this a recent DVD? There is a more recent protection method that is turning up more than is blocking a lot of software from ripping - the RCE protection mentioned in the errors. On Windows I believe DVDFab gets around it but I don't know of any on Linux as I don't really do much ripping myself at all.

this is spiderman1 so its pretty old, i bought it when it came out. Thanks for putting me on the right track- I thought the software was telling me that the region coding was incorrect.
Now I know RCE region protection is a copy protect scheme.
thanks
