That's not what I meant, I was referring to his comment about ripping Cass before and it was fine, which doesn't mean anything.There IS an issue. And it's not one that makes me too happy. It's not the first time I've seen this issue mentioned. Basically if you make an unprotected ISO with a whole bunch of options turned on in AnyDVD (BD Live removal, region removal, PUOPS, etc, etc) and then mount that ISO with the same options turned on, *in some cases* (not all!) it could cause problems as I think AnyDVD is trying to reprocess the mounted image as though the protection still exists. I'm going to say this again until it gets beat into people's heads....this is the kind of thing that makes me recommend using protected images. You can then selectively turn on and off protection removal on the mounted image. Whereas if you rip it with all that stuff turned on, um, good luck. It should work, yes. But, nothing's perfect, not even our beloved AnyDVD.
As to the unprotected V's Protected ISO, I'm on the opposite side of the fence, I always remove everything but then I only have AnyDVD HD running when I'm ripping a disc and then turn it off again
