Image making problem

i just went out and bought "The Fast and The Furious Tokyo Drift" now when ever i buy a DVD i make a image of it on my HDD and compress it and leave it there for if i ever go somewhere for afew weeks i can take all my movies with me. well the movie i bought before Tokyo Drift was T3 Rise of the bla. it had me install a media player for it i knew i should not have well anyway i installed it watched the movie on my pc and liked it but did not want to waste space on my hdd for it so i just put it up with out coping it to my hdd well now i got Tokyo Drift i put it in my DVD-rom and started up cloneCD to make a image like i always do and i go to the screen where i chose a file name. nomatter what kind of .EX i try to give it it stays .DVD i cant get it to save it as .MDS or what ever it will not change so i thought no biggy i would just use A-120% to make the image seeing as i use it to mount it. And guess what i open A-120 go to image making wizard and no disk shows up when i click on my dvd-rom for source. am i just one of the unlucky ones that got hit by sonys rootkit or what? i really dont know whats wrong all my other dvds i got saved on my HDD seems to play fine when i mount them.

Does anyone know what i should do?

 

No big deal since you own the DVD, just take it with you

 

If you are sure that it is a Sony rootkit, then the following link may help.

yea asus not that big of a deal. but i am kinda lazy and the less stuff i have to haul around the better

Thanks for the link Novice i think it might be something like sony's rootkit i dont know from sure because i never had to deal with this type of problem before i am going over that link now to see if i might got it..

 

i gone over the site and looked in services like it said and did not find what it said to look for. so does that mean i might be clean because my AV did nto turn up nothing eather and its updated when ever theres a update.. i guess its just the movie...

 

if i try and copy the dvd by right clicking on the dvd folders it gives me a error. but i can copy it over useing DVDFab Decrypter but not in a image format so i cant mount it to one of my Virtual Drives. does anyone know of a free software that will copy it to my hdd in a image format (any format dont matter i beleave 120% can read all)....

BTW if this was not legit a mod would have got it. but i beleave i am well trusted here or else the mods or admins would of deleted this so i beleave they trust me.

 

Did you ever uninstall the media player that came with T3 rise of the blah?

 

yea i uninstalled it. and i got nothing

 

This may not help, but have you tried renaming the extension, after you have created the image?

I know this is a workaround, but a plausible one, until someone figures this out.

Also, shouldn't you be using clone dvd and not clone cd?

 

you know thats the only thing i have not tryed yet lol.

 

well that seemed to work but after windows media player comes up and starts showing the FBI warnnings and all it crashes after 10sec. WMP has done this to me before and i beleave its the dvd codec so i am going to try another media player as soon as i can find one lol
you know of one better thin WMP?

 

ok i tried playing it on another MP and it crashed 6sec into the previews. same as before. i changed it from .DVD to .MSD and it did what i said thin i changed it to .ISO and same thing do you know any i might try? its only one file so i dont know all my others that are .MSD have more thin one file but i never done a ISO before so i dont know about that .

 

Try:

Click START, then RUN, then type in: mplayer2 (press enter)

This is the old style of WMP.

I personnally use media player classic downloaded via the K-lite mega codec pack:

It supports quite a bit:

Another option, uninstall clonecd (dvd?) and reinstall it.

 

i am useing clonecd because thats what i have always used for my dvd movies. but i will try a uninstall reinstall.
