Product Description:

MacTheRipper is a freeware DVD ripper (extractor) for Mac OS X. It is dependent upon the open-sourced libdvdread and libdvdcss libraries. We also use the 'tocgen' program in certain modes, which is a part of the 'dvdauthor' project. This product is made to backup DVDs you have legally purchased for personal use. Any copyright infringing activity you choose to perpetrate using this application is illegal, wrong, and beyond our control. That being said, MacTheRipper removes CSS encryption, Macrovision protection, and sets the disc's region code to '0' for region-free by default, and is capable of removing RCE region protection as well, making an unrestricted copy of any DVD movie you own. It doesn't rely on the DVD drive to get the CSS decryption keys, so that means that you do not need to play the DVD with DVD Player in order to rip it to your hard drive unprotected. MTR is also capable of removing UOPs, or User Operation Prohibitions, which are the settings that prevent you from skipping or fast-forwarding certain parts of DVDs, such as FBI warnings, previews, logos, intros, etc. MacTheRipper is also able to extract discs with the new ARccOS protection, as well as DVDs that have been damaged or improperly mastered.

What's new in this version:

  • This time it really fixes the bug in the new UOPs disabling code
  • Fixes an obscure bug where a file called Glass.snd in the home/Library/Sounds folder on some users' systems could cause MTR to crash

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.3
  • Mac OS X 10.2

Additional Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.2 or higher

that this version is better than MTR 3 which took the developer forever to finish
Some thought he was stalling for more donations
He says her was going through a breakup
fine, but why make us suffer?
Finally they got to release 3.0rc 'm'
which I think means he gave up on it in beta

Easy to use but I have found two problems with it;

1. After ripping about 2/3rds of the way through there is a slip screen. The top half continues it the movie, while the bottom half is a still of a previous frame from the movie.

2. After converting and burning to a dvd my player display's a message "HD format not supported" so I can't watch it.

MacTheRipper is one of the best Mac programs I've ever used. It's intuitive, reliable and fast. It's worth any amount of a donation, and is far better than any commercial product I've tried. Combine all this, with prompt, courteous support and you got one of the best utilities available for the Mac. If I could, I'd give it 10 stars!
