Can't find source...

Ok, maybe that German setup had some effect - Nero refuses to function.

So how do I remove this software? Running "st6unst.exe" just spewed some German at me (seemed to trying to tell me to uninstall using some other method not available on WinXP).

have you got system restore turned on?. You should just be able to system restore to before the install

Drive VI? I've never seen anything like that error before. I don't even know if that's from DS, XP or DVDDecrypter. Even the wording is strange. I guess TMG will have to look at this one

this is a strange one :confused:

Okay, I don't have a copy of DVDStripper at work, so you may have to bear with me on this. Before you click on "Rip Using DVDDecrypter", is the 'Next' button useable (Not Grayed)?? Because if it is not, and you are hitting the "Rip Using DVDDecrypter" button and then the next button is now useable(Black Text) then I would guess that the error message is in DVDDecrypter. If you have the source code for DVDStripper, you could do a search through it for that message and see if it is contained in there somewhere, in wich case the error message is coming from DVDStripper.

But right now, I wouldn't get stuck on that error message. The error message is an effect of another issue, the fact that the drop-down box is empty is the problem that needs to fixed. That is why it is saying the disk isn't a valid video-disc, cause it isn't actually telling it a real drive to check. I am not sure exactly what algorithm TMG is using to fill that box, but for whatever reason it is choking on Styro's Puter. Unfortunately, i think this is gonna be one to be fixed by looking at the source-code and adding some kind of debug message in the FillComboBox algorithm to see what line it stops filling the box on. Here is the code that I wrote that got the Drives on his computer. (It just grabs the volume-name of the disk and not the Drive Type and Manufacturer like yours, but it may be all TMG needs to get going.) Hope this helps out some!

Yes, system restore is on. But it is an MS product embedded into the OS, so no it doesn't work when you really need it. Fortunately I had a full image of C from two days ago. Hopefully I won't miss what I can't tell I'm missing...

The 'next' button has always been available. Just goes to the next step, but I can't do anything there since I don't know what format/files DS uses. Also, from the messages on this forum I would guess trying to fake-out DS by dropping files into the temp directory won't work.

@Burdzy, cheers I appreciate the file and hopefully it will resolve this issue :)

@Styro, I've emailed TMG about your issue and I hope you can bear with us ;)

Since the Next button is available there is a way to get the files you need.
MackemX may smack me around for this, but here goes.

Set DVDDecryptor v3.1.7.0 to rip in File Mode. (Mode|File)
Then make sure that the Ripping is done by CellID. (Tools|File Mode Tab|Options Section|File Splitting Dropdown|By Cell Id).

If you rip the files then place them in the TEMP path defined in DVDStripper before hitting next it will see those files and be able to work with them.

This will allow you to work around the issue of it not seeing your DVD Drive and use the main features of DVDStripper.

Thanks Zarish! I'll try this out. Hopefully I can get DS working. Doing edits by hand is really slow (and then there is the testing phase). Thanks again.
