Over the last couple weeks there’s been a few threads of people insisting on using DVD Decrypter. I was wondering why are people still using it? Datahoarding tends to attract relatively technical people, so there must be some reason to keep using software that hasn’t been updated since Windows XP was modern.

MakeMKV seems like the better option in every use case except full backups. However a full DVD image can be made with any imaging software or even just dd. Any player that can handle the DVD menus from an ISO is going to be able to decrypt during playback.

    Same. It actually stopped working for me recently I guess the discs were too new. So I switched to Makemkv. Before that I had no need to.
