1.6.9

13 June 2016

Gets your movies off DVD and onto your Mac.

Overview

RipIt gets your movies off the disc and onto your Mac, where it's easier to find, organize and play them.

Why Rip Your DVDs?

Use your laptop longer: Laptops use a lot more juice when they're spinning a DVD and a hard drive.
Easily organize your movies: Moving files around on your computer is a lot easier than alphabetizing shelves full of DVDs.
Find movies faster: Use your Mac's built in search tool, Spotlight, to find a movie in your collection... instantly.
Peace of mind: Movies stored safely in your computer can't get lost, scratched or broken.
Simplify entertainment on-the-go: Why carry around bulky DVD cases or disc wallets when you don't have to?

The developer of MTR could learn a lesson from these RipIt folks. This is how to properly publish a DVD ripping application for the Mac. You make some software and you sell it. Simple as that. No taking "donations" from people only to hold off on development of the software because of a divorce. Real tech support too. Not bashing the innocent in forum threads.

Used to be very reliable, but version 1.6.9 crashed constantly and is unusable under Sierra.

Does The Little App Factory have an explanation why version 1.6.9 must be downloaded manually? This plus their news page* being full of spam makes me very suspicious. * http://thelittleappfactory.com/news/

As of July 2017 the website seems fine to me, even with my ad blocker turned off.

I've owned the app for a couple of years and it works great. The site? Stick a fork in it, it's done. Too bad.

I noticed when trying to copy a DVD, it tries to connect to http://discident.com (I block connection with little snitch). This site has a simple message "Please upgrade to Mac DVDRipper Pro, the best Mac DVD ripper.". Looks like that's not a bad app https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/31118/mac-dvdripper-pro

Today I was burning a backup of 2 DVDs & all it says on the DVD image in the app's window is "Upgrade to macdvdripper" instead of the title of the movie. I've had this purchased for awhile now, anyone having this problem?

My guess is the endpoint RipIt queries when "Use DiscIdent to find titles" is checked in the "General" tab of the preferences now returns the ad instead of the disk title.

This is creepy and weird.

It looks like DiscIdent (discident.com) has either been hacked, or has given up the ghost. :( In fact, though, it hadn't been resolving titles particularly well for a bit, at least for me in RipIt.

Thank you guys. Use Discident was checked, I just unchecked it. I didn't check it though, must have done it by itself. Ripit is haunted. :)

Can anyone comment how well it handles subtitles? I prefer "soft" subtitles that can be turned on or off. (Some apps do "hard" subtitles, where the text is added to the image and can't be turned off while viewing.)

Version 1.6.8

This Application is great.It is now configured for Yosemite and it works well. I like it better than MSRP.

Mac DVDRipper Pro is the best one I've used.

Makemkv works for almost everything I've ever thrown at it. I have a library of over 800 DVDs and BluRays. Of those, there are maybe 25 that didn't work. I had to sometimes use another computer because of the DVD drive compatibility, but all BluRays have worked that I've tried, even 3D (though the conversion of the file to a 3D capable video file is still a problem to get right, it still rips them fine). In combination with Handbrake and Plex, I now have a library of almost 800 movies that I can stream in HD to anywhere on the internet. No more searching for the disk, I just connect to the Plex server and choose the movie I want to watch.

I Have a few apps I use, I own MacDVDRipper Pro, iFFmpeg, Aurora blu-ray copy etc. Usually I make a DRM free iso of the disk with Aurora find the movie file, and convert it to mkv with iffmpeg, and place it on the dedicated server powered by linux. If i do a DVD movie, I usually just use handbrake directly on the server. I bought MRDP when handbrake found disks it couldn't deal with, that seems to be getting better as time progresses.

As far as MakeMKV, i've tried it, but it's nice not to have to buy another app, if the ones you already have get the Job done :) I too use Plex Media Server, and Serviio media server, they work better for specific devices, hence why i use both.

This in it's day was the top app to back up my DVD collection. Now days just like DVD's it's just Obsolete. If the dev's would add Blue Ray support then it would be worth buying.

Version 1.6.8

I have purchased this and thus am an owner and user and have been for a while. Since v1.6.8 crashes on start up and it seems the developer has not responded so after commenting to solicit a response from the developer, I am reluctantly going to give it the rating a crashing app without apparent support deserves... a zero, however, zeroes are not possible so I rated it a 0.5 until they get this fixed. I am now back to using 1.6.6 until they get this fixed.

I'll just comment for now to give the developer a chance to fix the problem before I give a rating. v1.6.8 crashes whenever I try to start it on Mac OS X 10.8.5 just as it has been doing for others here. As far as I can tell the developer has not commented on it yet. I will be staying with 1.6.6 for now.

You all understand that MU.com often lists the apps without the developer's knowledge and hence the developer usually doesn't check here for comments and that he hence has no way of responding? When you have an issue with an app, contact the developer - this is not a support forum...
