Can someone explain why I can not RIP a movie with NERO 7.xx (using AnyDVD 6.193) with AI Scanner on and ripping the movie only works, while turning the AI Scanner off.
What is the use of the AI Scanner anyway ?
As Clams Canino states, there are a few movies that don't work with AI Scanner, and for those that do, I recommend you review each title set to ensure that the AI scanner hasn't adversely altered it. For instance, I found that one of the recent betas truncated the audio and video optimization routine on the Ratatouille region 1 DVD. The main move, deleted scenes, and other bonus features seem OK, but the VTS that contains the video and audio optimization routine terminates abruptly during the speaker setup phase. I played the VTS manually and verified that it had been truncated from the original DVD version.
It seems that AI truncated several VTS on this title as a necessary method of getting rid of protection, but it went too far on this particular VTS.
Meanwhile, this title would not rip with AI scanning disabled, so I'm at a loss for how to get a perfect full DVD backup on Ratatouille with AnyDVD. (I backed up with AnyDVD set for AI scanning (default and deep scan produced same results) and used CloneDVD in full DVD9 mode.)
