Recently released DVDs are now very often equipped with stronger copy protections - such as ARccOS™ and RipGuard DVD. Programs like DVD Shrink or DVD Decrypter cannot handle these types of discs.
With the help of RipIt4Me, ripping these DVDs will be a very easy task. The program is fully automated and the wizard will guide you through all the necessary steps involved. If you prefer, there is also a true "1-Click" mode that will perform all the involved steps automatically for you.
I haven't bought that movie to try and copy it yet but I haven't had any problems ripping all my new movies with it. Finding it is a little tough I found it on some
free-codecs site. There's another free ripper here @CDFreaks called RipIt4Me I just downloaded it so i haven't tried it but give those a shot. After all the price is nothing
I like the easy interface its easy to use, yet flexible enough to give me choices on what to copy exactly. 
Although, it does seem their website, www.ripit4me.org, is down. I hope they don't end up like DVD Decrypter!

- Added an automatic updater. When a new version is available, RipIt4Me offers to download and install it for you. If you answer yes, the application closes, and the updater launches, fetches the app, puts it in the right place, and launches it again. If DVD Decrypter is currently ripping, the rip is aborted. If the VOBs are being cleaned, the cleanup is also aborted.
This of course, will only work the next time we have an update.
- Added code to detect whether the DVD appears to be protected. This is displayed in the main window during Step 1. If the DVD isn\'t protected, there\'s a new button in Step 1 to open the DVD with DVD Shrink directly.
- Added "Open .ini file" to the Main menu.
- Added handling of missing titles in video_ts.ifo as experienced in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Greece).
- RipIt4Me now terminates AnyDVD "the right way" (by sending a WM_CLOSE message to its main window in the tray, instead of killing the process).
- In any VTS that\'s excluded from the rip, the replacement IFO now only contains 1 title and 1 PGC.
- Attempted to fix the problem with DVD Decrypter running out of resources... Let us know if the new code helps!
- Attempted to fix a crash that could occur when a VTS had too many VOBUs. This was possibly responsible for the crash on "Vientos de Agua". Please, try and report? Thanks!
- Fixed a PUO problem in the analysis code that could cause some PGCs to not be cleaned appropriately.
- There was a serious problem in the analysis code related to Sprm[5] (TTN number). Now fixed.
- Attempted to fix the "Not a DVD" problem that some users have had in 1.7.0.0. If that still does not work, post the debug log you get during Step1.
- In Movie-Only mode, a bug in Step1 could cause the IFOs to be copied in the last used target directory (instead of a temporary directory in %TEMP%).
- The psl import code now works when the path includes "(" or ")".
- The "Save logs" function now also copies the FinalIFO BUP files.
- The DVD Decrypter version was not being checked upon startup, no matter what your preferences were! Now fixed.
String translators - please note the addition of a "\\n" to string 453 and new strings 471 to 480

- First version that integrates our adaptation of FixVTS. There is no need to have FixVTS installed anymore. Several options concerning FixVTS have been renamed/removed, including the FixVTS log, which is now included (and much simplified) into the RipIt4Me log.
- When a cell is removed, the next cell\'s STC discontinuity flag is now set. This might help with playability problems with certain players when tiny cells are removed.
- In Step 1, if your preferences are not to empty the target directory at the start, you\'re no longer asked to confirm whether you want to delete all the files.
- If the DVD is episodic with episodes in different VTSs and the user selects "movie only" or "movie+menus", Step 1 offers to switch back to "Full DVD" when the user presses OK.
- Attempted to make the copying of the original IFOs faster. In case of failure, we re-try 10 times.
- Fixed a potential crash during the cell cleanup when the IFOs are a bit messed up (cell command declared, but non-existent).
- Fixed a small problem in the analysis code that could cause errors in the Stargate DVD.
- If for some reason the PSL file was not imported, the user is only notified if dummy sectors are found, since if none are found it really does not matter.
- The first time 1.7.0.0 is run, the user is prompted to increase maxvobdur to 300 (if it is not already so). This is a one-time offer. Please accept it.
- The lock on the RipIt4Me.log and DebugLog.txt files are now released at the end of the Wizard and 1-click modes so you can open/move them if you wish.
- The part of the debug log that concerned Step1 (ripping the IFOs) was no longer present in the final debug log. This is now fixed.
- Fixed (once more) a problem with moving the original IFOs in linux.
- Other minor IO confirmation messages added.
String translators - Please note string changes as follows: Top line (470), Lines 6, 24-26, 28, 30, 65-67, 73, 83-87, 102, 119, 120, 144, 146, 154, 155, 162, 210, 271-275, 302, 344-347, 461-470
1.6.9.0

* A quick bug fix for Win\'98 people ("Not a DVD" problem again). Apologies.
1.6.8.0
Posted by H3rB3i
(7 February 2007)
* Returned to a simpler way to check whether the disc is a DVD: look for the VIDEO_TS folder!
* Once more attempted to solve the VISTA PSL import problem. There is now a 1s delay to allow the open dialog to open.
* Fixed the problem that sometimes caused the label of the DVD to not be read and be reported as "NO_LABEL".
* In the Jump To Menu function, if the target menu was in the title domain, but not a title itself, things could go bad. This is now fixed.
* Fixed a problem that could allow the parsing to occur even though the disc wasn\'t ready!
* Fixed problem that could occur when updating (the RipIt4Me app was sometimes locked so you couldn\'t overwrite it).
* The dialog title in Step 1 now reflects whether we\'re in wizard or 1-click mode. No more confusion!
* In the jump to menu function, if sprm(2) (subpictures) is set to a value that can\'t be obtained with a SetSTN command, sprm(2) is set to 62 ("not set").
* There are a couple more strings to translate.

* Made an important change to the analysis code. It runs a bit slower, but we\'re hoping that it will do a better job with complicated DVDs. The analysis is more thorough and will in some instances (eg games) take a while longer, so for these DVDs, please be patient. There will be little impact for regular DVDs.
* Added code to check whether DVD Decrypter imported the PSL file or not. This occurs right after the key strokes are sent to import the PSL, at the start of the rip, then again at the end of the rip by inspecting the log. An error is issued if the log indicates that the PSL file was not imported. This has been a major source of bug reports in the past so we hope this will now be a thing of the past.
* Added debug info in Step 1 during the detection of the drive and identification of the disc. If your disc/drive isn\'t identified during Step 1, ***DON\'T*** try to click Next, just Cancel. Find your debug log (in %APPDATA%/RipIt4Me) and post that on the forum! Thanks!
* Fixed a problem that could cause an infinite loop during the "Updating INFO" stage in Step 1.
* Fixed a small bug introduced with the improved scanning of BOVs. For bad DVDs such as Shottas, the app could crash because it relied on the bogus VTS_VOBU_ADMAP.
* Improved the PSL importing code to better behave under Windows VISTA. Because of the window animation under VISTA, windows and open dialogs open much slower than under XP. The new code waits for windows to be ready before sending keystrokes.
* The display is updated to show the IFOs being read during Step 1, which is useful when there\'s quite a bunch of them.
* The code now checks whether the disc is really a DVD. If not, "Disc Not DVD" is reported during Step 1. This is not implemented for ASPI (Win 9x/Me) yet.
* Fixed "Autralia" in the English strings.

* Quick bug fix for the Win9x mess. Sorry about that.
1.6.5.0 wasn\'t working under win 9x. It should work now.
* If there\'s not enough room in the target directory for the ripped files, the user can now decide to abort or continue;
* Added strings for update dialogs.
NOTE TO POTENTIAL TRANSLATERS: STRING 260 WAS MODIFIED FOR THE NEW FEATURE ABOVE.
1.6.4.0

Version 1.6.4.0 (10 January 2007)
* Happy new year to all!
* Improved the analysis. Results should be identical, but the analysis should be faster now.
* If a VTS is completely unreferenced, the cleanup of its cells is now skipped (since it will be replaced anyway).
* Pressing F1 now opens "RipIt4Me Help.chm" if this file is located in the same directory as RipIt4Me, otherwise it opens the web version. The help file is included in the installer.
* Incorporated the on-the-fly patching code to make DVD Decrypter more robust to badly messed IFOs. Thanks to the anonymous developer who provided that code, without this, RipIt4Me would *not* be able to handle some of the latest DVDs. There is a new key in the ini file to control this. DecrypterParsingMode=1 is the default, which enables the patching. Set it to 0 for the normal DVD Decrypter behavior.
* If there were no BOVs in the DVD when it was first scanned, it will not be rescanned in subsequent loading operations while in wizard or 1-click mode.
* Added some broad error catching code to avoid crashes during the loading of titlesets and the analysis. If a fatal error occurs during the loading of a titleset (one that would normally crash the app) the code recovers and simply removes the titleset from the rip. If such an error occurs during the analysis, the app also recovers and tries to do the best it can to keep on going normally. A warning is issued, however.
* Removed the error messages for bogus numbers of PGCs and skipping the rest of the VTS...
* If for some reason the code to detect the state of the drive does not work, RipIt4Me will try to use the "old" code. This means you won\'t need to have UseOldCheckCode set to 1 in the .ini file. Again, this is a temporary fix until we determine what it is exactly that makes the new code fail.
* Fixed the bug that caused SPTI to be detected as unavailable if the first drive was locked.
* When blanking titlesets, the TMAP table was not fully removed, this is now fixed.
* Fixed a bug that could cause the "Jump to menu" function to not work right *in wizard mode* (1-click was OK).
* When blanking a VTS, or replacing it with a generic one, the correct video format is now used (NTSC if the DVD is NTSC, PAL if it is PAL). This, hopefully, will fix some playability problems seen on some players.
* In some rare cases, the jump to menu function was missing the menu (when the highlights were transparent when active). This has been fixed.
* Fixed a potential small bug in Step 1 which could cause a crash when canceling.
* Fixed a problem that occurred when an exit command was encountered during the analysis.
