Here is a donationware utility
that could prove useful for some. DVDStripper will strip titlesets, titles,
chapters, announcements, logo's, trailers, extras etc from DVD's. Menu's with
Movie Only or also keep a few selective extras too. Split DVD keeping original
quality but also deciding what you want on each DVD (e.g. Episodic DVD's).
Remove one of the two movies on the DVD (e.g. Widescreen & Fullscreen
DVD's.
ADDED:
- Project System, this will
save all your relevant Job Info into a File
- Load / Save / MRU Projects
to File menu
- 'Recover from ProjectFile'
to the Emergency menu. (EXPERIMENTAL!) this should enable you to recover
from any error that happened while processing if you previously
saved your project. Hopefully making it unnecessary to
rerip the disc again.
- additional security check
for the Rip button, now only enabled when a valid Temporary Folder is
selected and DVDDecrypter is actually installed
- Kids Free Mode, you can
access this by selecting 'Make Kids Free' from the help menu. This is
intended for those of you who have small children or feel offended in
anyway by the splash screens picture. Select this and the Stripping Girl
will be removed the next time you start DVDStripper
- option to reset the
easteregg if needed
- 'Prompt to save Project
when processing' setting to the options, if enabled this will
automaticly prompt you to save the project to file when you hit the
process button
- Title Selector to Split
Mode, so now you can also select titles in a more convenient way, when
splitting to 2 Discs
- Full support for Split
Mode to MiniNavigator also, actually almost completly redid the
MiniNavigator. Now looks and behaves a lot more like the item lists
from the main window
- Accelerator Keys to
MiniNavigator, allowing you to fast and easily control all its function
from the keyboard.
- 'Steal Focus' option to
the MiniNavigator. If selected then it will always recapture focus to
itself when it looses it. This is pretty nice when you are browsing the
items via keyboard, since after the playback with the player of
your choice has startet, MiniNavigator will regain focus and you can
immediately continue with the next operation without even touching
the mouse
- Shortcut keys for the
Tools
- Force Player exit, if
selected, is now also executed when you
start processing
- Linked Cells Info to Title
Selector, it will inform you if there are PGC-linked cells present in
the current Titles, so you know without the need of extending the whole
Tree if extra caution is neccessary
- Selection menu to the
Title Selector
- Shortcut keys
to the Title Selector when a Cell is
selected in Title Selector and you hit return (enter) then playback of
that cell is now started
- Extras menu to Title
Selector, containing 'Always on top' and 'Steal focus' sub menus, they
work just the same as the checkboxes on Mini Navigator
- Colorize Cells to the
'view' menu in the Title Selector, just in case you dont need the
information provided through the colors and your eyes start to hurt
because of the amount of colors (or you are just colorblind) you can
en-/disable the coloring of the cells here
- Force Player exit, if
selected, is now also executed when you close the Title
Selector
- Accelerator Keys to Main
window
- a more aggressive code to
fight the TimeMap Bug on high performance machines
- Legal Warning, when you
start DVDStripper, you must accept this conditions of use for
DVDStripper, elseway DVDStripper wont start at all!
- Support for DVD Decrypter
3.1.9.0, now DVDStripper works correctly with DVD Decrypter 3.1.7.0
and above (DVD Decrypter changed its output format making this change
neccessary)
- secondary Drive
enumeration, if the first code cant determin any DVD Drives now the
secondary code jumps in, this has only been reported once so far, but
just in case... BUT the secondary code doesnt differ between CD
and DVD Drives, so know your system 🙂
- context menu to the Item
windows, allowing you to play a certain item with another player
then the one specified for the item type by a simple
click
- 'FredThompson checks' aka
'Idiot-proofing'. Means DVDStripper now checks more often if the
configured paths are still valid. If you try hard enough you can still
break it though...
- when ripping is complete
you are automaticly taken to the Item selection
- Donation Link to the help
menu, now that DVDStripper is -Donation Ware- and basicly available for
free, you can support its future development by donating an amount of
your choice at this link
Changes:
- minor beauty change, the
split legend is now only visible on the 2nd page
- the name of the 'VTS
Selector' to 'Title Selector'. Name was too misleading
- the way the settings are
stored in the registry. Droped the vb internal routines, now writing in
a more common way, giving some order to the
settings.
- some internal management
code to enable Projects and prepare future features
- The Title Selector so it
reflects the currents selection (especially useful when in split mode)
when it is opened, showing the same colors as the main dialog.
Drawback is that it gets extremly colorful
- linked Cells are no longer
highlighted by color, but by making them bold, this was neccessary
due to the change of the Title Selector to enable it showing your
selection with colors
- The register
Dialog to make registering more clear, and allow faster
processing of Registration
Requests
- the captioning on the main
dialog so the path captions are standardized
- the behaviour of the 'R'
Buttons, now canceling will no longer reset the related
value
- the way the sizes are
retrieved, dumping vb internal routines, this should fix an issue where
negativ sizes could be displayed
- parts of the
BrowseForFolder code for first time initialization, now opens on
MyComputer by default
- a few texts and captions
as suggested by a native english speaker 🙂
- 'R' Buttons caption to
'>'
- Layout of the
Registration Dialog to reflect the procedures for new and replacement
keys
Fixes:
- blank screen issue in
splitt mode (was missed in 0.2.0)
- rare bug that could lead
to messed up playback after processing
- a bug that could lead to
subpstream loss while processing
Removed:
- all code and dialogs
connected to the Registration and Protection, since they are obsolete
now!

For whatever reason, the DVD Stripper site is down at
the moment, saying only "Back Soon". Maybe the author is taking a break from
coding this program. A screenshot and a download can be found here at the BetaNews file Forum Site. Please feel free to discuss this
software in the Transcoding Forum. It appears some members have already
discovered this software and have tried earlier versions with
success.
