I used Version 0.8 Build 2.1. You can try finding that version somewhere. When I get time I hope to create an updated post using a current version of Handbrake.

It took me a while to figure out that it's the encryption. DVD43 is great :) So I agree with Bill Roy and Da Vinci, using DVD43 & Handbrake may sound like two steps vs one, but 1) at least IT WORKS and 2) you don't feel ripped of for paying for something!

Typically they do not have decryption built in and you end up paying $29 plus needing to install decryption software. Also, although it's described as a 2 step process above it is only the first time and after that it's a one step. udigis, I agree with you in concept, however, in my experience not all commercial software actually works.
