Hi Everyone,

I am very new to this encoding stuff and have various questionsn to help my understanding.

1. I understand that Fairuse Wizard includes a ripper and will unlock a DVD, is unlocking a DVD the same as removing the protection altogether. Therefore, am I right in saying that you never have to use DVD Decrypter to copy the DVD on the hard disk as long as you have the original DVD?

2. On DVD Decrypter - if I want to copy a DVD to a Drive (assumming this is a movie) I am a little confused on the difference between the Modes. Somes tutorials say use 'file mode' and some say create an 'ISO'.

Does it depend on what I want to do with the file ie play DVD on computer only or use Fairuse Wizard to convert the file?

Will 'file mode' let me select the DVD file later on and use with Fairuse Wizard to convert or do I have to use 'ISO' mode straight way? Was has prompted me to ask the question is that on the Fairuse Wizard it only asks about selecting an 'ISO' image or DVD Drive?

Thanks

Hi,

Fairuse can decrypt the DVD on its own, so you don't have to use DVD Decrypter first.

As some people prefer DVD Decrypter to rip DVDs (as it has many useful features and is faster than Fair Use, FU's creator added an option to load an ISO file you may have created with DVD Decrypter. (so you have to use the ISO mode, not the file mode).

Thank you for that.

When I use 'ISO Mode' do I select read or write. What is the difference?

Thanks

Simple, Read reads the DVD and saves it into an ISO file in your hard disk while Write burns an ISO you already have to a blank DVD (if you have a DVD burner).
