September 28, 2003

warforpeace used our news submit to tell us that ImTOO have released version 1.0.9 of their DVD Ripper. warforpeace wrote "In the jungle of DVD-Ripping software this piece of a binary seems to do it all, except for the fact that it's unfortunately not freeware. However, $ 35 doesn't seem to be a high price, so it's worth a try ."

Unlike most DVD rippers which simply extract and decrypt a DVD movie to a PC folder, ImTOO DVD ripper can also re-encode the DVD contents into (S)VCD for multiple CD-R backup or MPEG4 for high quality PC playback on a single CD-R. As with most DVD rippers, this software can also process individual chapters.

ImTOO DVD ripper has features ranging from basic ripping and backup default settings for beginners requiring just a few mouse clicks up to a wide range of customisable settings for advanced users. It also features video and frame rate transcoding such as for converting an American NTSC DVD to a PAL DVD for playback in a European player and vice versa. Like other DVD backup software, this DVD ripper can also recompress the VOB files from a dual layer DVD movie to fit on a standard single layer DVD Recordable while still retaining high quality video and audio.

ImTOO DVD Ripper is a DVD ripping tool easy to use with high ripping speed.

It can backup your favorite DVD movie into almost all popular video formats such as VCD, SVCD, DivX, MPEG1, MPEG2, MPEG4, AVI etc.

Compare with other DVD ripper, ImTOO DVD Ripper has more settings you can customize and it is easier than ever.

Whatever you are a veteran or a beginner, you will feel it's developed for you! If you are a veteran, you will find there are so many options you can set, if it's the first time you rip DVDs, you don't have to consider these options, just use default settings and rip DVDs in a few clicks.

You can select subtitle language or movie size for targeting video files. Frame rate including PAL and NTSC, audio volume, bitrate, frequency, or whether enable Dolby Surround are all selectable.

Also ImTOO DVD Ripper can check your CPU type automatically, that ensure you can rip your DVDs with the best ripping speed.

You can preview the movies before you begin ripping them, you even can watch the movies at the same time when you are ripping DVDs. And using ImTOO DVD Ripper, you will get the movie formats you want with excellent image and sound quality.

The new version adds the function of ripping by chapter(s).

This software takes the features of DVD-Ripping, DVD-Backup, MPEG2 Encoding and transcoding software and put them in a single package. This means that one can rip, re-encode and backup their movies without having to worry about using several utilities. This makes it more suitable for beginners. As mentioned by warforpeace , the price of this software is very reasonable considering the price of most DVD backup software that does not support conversion to other video formats.

InTOO DVD Ripper is available as a shareware download or purchase here. Note that the full product price is $ 35 and not $ 29.95 as mentioned on the Softnews website.
