The only software that really deprotects even file system protected DVDs.

Thanks a lot for this one!

I have been using DVD 43 for about a year and it had allowed me to backup all my DVD's until lately. I downloaded the updat and tried it today and it still doesn't work on the last 2 movies I tried. Any word on an update?

Can't rate this too highly. I've never come across a DVD it wouldn't allow me to backup. It's a very mysterious piece of work too - just appears on the internet from time to time with no real indication of who is the author ;) Very cool.

Hi, I had the same problem many are having with dvd43free not decoding . but it is not dvd43free you have to uninstall dvd43free and your dvd copy program. restart your computer,then download dvd43free and then restart computer.after that install your copy program and restart,if you do not restart after you install each seperately it will not work.
when computer comes back up you should be working just like before I use Icopydvd's2 and it works like any other program thank you dvd43free it is the best program ever.
yours truly

DVD Fab HD Decyrpter works great. I don't have a 64 bit system, but the 32 bit works great and both are actively developed.

Hey ECHIP:

Are you using one of the following burning programs?
1Click DVD Copy, Nero Recode, Intervideo DVD Copy, Roxio DVD Copy, Pinnacle DVD Copy and others. I like 1Click DVD Copy the best, a little expensive but you do pay for convenience.

This program has worked nearly flawlessly with 1ClickDVDtoIPod as I save my favorite DVDs to use on my Zune. The only problem I've run into was with "The Last Samurai" which it will not decode. Otherwise, I have been very happy with the results. With at least some type of backup I'm a little more comfortable loaning out my originals for friends to watch.

DVD 43 is a great tool to use in conjunction with 1CLICKDVDCOPYPRO. The only problem is that there's not a (64 bit) variant for Vista. Hopefully DVD 43 will come up with a (64 bit) version soon.

In vista 64 bit after you down load dvd43 right click on it click on properties you will see a compability tab click on it it will give you differant versions of windows to run it under be sure to check the box see if that will work for windows vista and any other older programs.

DVD43 works without flaws on my WIndows XP3 with 1 Click DVD Copy Pro.

What I found were bad DVD's, cheaply made. Verbatim and TDK are selling horrific knock off Dual Layer DVD's. I wish I had more choices, but Sony DL worked perfectly, no errors or stalled video sections on playback.

I'm hoping WIndows 7 doesn't make the same mistakes as Vista.

version 4.4.0.0
it's fine, I' ve just download it and the copy of the protected DVD is very good ( It works with clone DVD)but it's necessary to uninstall Anydvd if you want to use DVD43! The original (french) DVD was produced by PATHE MARCONY .

By far the BEST! For those of us still using XP, the #1 duo for video duplication is the combination of DVD43 and 1CLICKDVDCOPYPRO. There is only one star in Hollywood that has managed to screw things up, but naturally being such a political person as "SHE" is, you'd think she'd pass her knowledge on how to beat this combo on! I just renewed my 2nd year of 1 click and with dvd43 the programs are faster and faster than last year. Sorry to you folk on Vista.

I've been using DVD43 for years but recently bought a new computer with 64 bit processing and just discovered this won't work anymore. I found an alternative (It looks decent but I haven't had time to try it yet) and it work on 64 bit operating systems. The website is http://www.brothersoft.c...hd-decrypter-61937.html and the name of the shareware is DVDFab HD Decrypter 5.1.1.0. This site also lists a few other alternatives.

looks good, but have other free progs to do this stuff. Just wanted to comment about the previous guy with the mpaa crap. There are no one loosing jobs or money etc. People have been copying records videos etc for years. They are just using the lame excuse. Their ads are only directed to lamers like the previous poster. If these companies stopped ripping us off with damn right through the roof prices, then there would be no piracy. They rob us, so we will rob from them. It is THAT simple.

Capitalism is for morons.

Dude, you need to chill out. The program does what it is supposed to do and it does it quite well. These reviews are not intended as forums for moralizing. You seem pretty passionate about obeying the law, maybe you should volunteer with Amnesty International or something if you really want to help with justice issues. While you're at it, could you look into getting the US to pay Canada the billions of dollars it illegally collected in soft wood tariffs? The courts have spoken three times and still the money has not been returned.

Yeah, the MPAA complaint reviewer is totally out of touch with the real world-- software like this is sorely needed for legal purposes-- like saying Viagra is only used to rape & commit pedophelia:

If i pay money for some content(whether entertainment, software, or data), esp. good money, i assume i am the 'owner' of such content(nonwithstanding to lincensing gibberish stating i an only a lessee & subject to play it only on designated systems, blah ad infinitum) & can damn well run/play it whenever/wherever i please:

I do NOT need to purchase the same item several times each in order to have sufficient backups or listen to something when away from home/on a component with a different brand-- say at work, on commute/vacation, while working out, etc. AND insist on having multiple backups in multiple locations in case of a significant pc upgrade, bios change, OS trashing/upgrade/change, peripheral brand change, power surge, disc breakage, dvd player/hard disk malfunction, multimedia software upgrade, you name it ad nauseum-- this is what's called insuring your purchases.

For example, I would NEED to avoid something like Sony's BS-- change enough components in your pc & have it disqualified to play your content... or update their software, which wipes out previous DRM licenses, & get told that you should've thought to backup all content & licenses before running the update, you will need to re-purchase your content.

Thanks Alot for the program. I have not had any problems with it. I found that if there was a problem I had to clean the disc or with my Memorex OptiFix Pro that I had to repair the dics I was going to copy, and all the times I did that, it worked just fine. So maybe this may help someof you out there that have problems to just try something like I did. Good Luck and Have lots of Fun. Also too I am using 1Click DVD Copy 5 and updating it at least once a week if there is a update. Hope that helps.

The message about the "cannot read filr due to encription" means that, A. you need to restart DVD43 because it was disconnected. (Do you have an external dvd burner? If so plug your USB back into the port and restart the computer) or B. The disc you are trying to burn is too scratched or damaged and it cannot read the files located on it.

I have been using DVD43 with 1Click DVD Copy 5 for a few years now with no problems up until a couple of months ago AFTER downloading one of the 1Click DVD Copy 5 updates. I was receiving:

"A read error has occurred while reading a file. The file may be encrypted or cannot be read by the DVD device. If you are using a decrypter, you may need to restart it before running 1Click DVD Copy Pro."

I finally uninstalled/reinstalled DVD43 v3.9 and it's been fine since. After reading this forum, I doubt I will upgrade to v4.0 until I start having problems again; I believe the old saying, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies here! BTW, I also noticed a great majority of people have been having problems copying Sony and Disney DVDs; in particular, Saw III. Tried it, copied first time. Maybe it's the OS? I know it's a long shot and probably has nothing to do with it BUT for the sake of this discussion thread I'll admit that I'm still running Windows 2000.

DVD 43 was ok. With latest update on 1 Click DVD Copy Pro I am now getting error message on DVD 43 "cannot connect. "DVD 43 driver must be installed, update and active." I'vd downloaded 4.0.0 version installed and reinstalled several times. I've notice 2 other report of same error but unable to find a fix. Can anyone help?

-lord- you are telling me I have tunnel vision?-idiot. I do NOT need nor have dvd decryptor on my sys because it is ugly & a superfluous waste of space. Anydvd or this will do what I need when I copy a rental etc.. I use nero recode to rip because it has an excellent interface for removing unwanted. Decryptor's gui is a joke. I also use O.N.E.S to burn ANY/All disc images (decryptor cannot do this) as well as video_ts folders. Anything that removes the stupid copy protection and is free is 5 stars period. Get a life lord-you are the caveman- If you don't know me then keep your mouth shut.

Anomaly: you've missed a good one then. If you only know of those other programs, and don't know about DVDDecrypter's ability to not only defeat the copy protection, but also read in raw file mode, create and burn isos, and several other features, then you're leading a sheltered or tunnel visioned life. Decrypter ruled, but the MPAA got to the developer and he's forced to stop production. Won't be long before this one's next.

This version has been available since May so I’m not sure why it’s just appearing here. Also there is a not free version of DVD43 floating around and this has caused confusion to DVD 43 users in the past.

To HKM, DVD43Free is a driver that removes CCS protection. You still need a program that that is capable of copying a DVD to use along with it.

To dougau:

[Duh, thanks, I know!]

Sorry, not really rating it just now -- only a comment to GET IT WHILE THE GETTING'S GOOD. It appears to be similar to the now-no longer being developed DVD DeCRYPTER. Per latter's website, he has been forced to stop developing and distributing that proggie. While dvddecrypter.com site is gone, you can still get it at afterdawn.

THIS prog, DVD43FREE seems to be made by the same folks that make DVDIDLE, etc. At least that is where their site links to.

So, again, I'd say to get this proggie [as well as DVD DECRYPTER] before the big THUGS out there go after this one too.

Will post a review after I've had a chance to check this one out......

This has nothing to do with dvd decryptor. I only know of anydvd, & dvd region + css free that one could actually compare this to. Anything that allows one to copy a movie so that you can add it to your collection for $4 & change AND is free DESERVES 5 stars

Works like a charm. Decrypted every DVD I threw at it. You need to make sure your copy software takes care of the structural problems on newer DVDs, DVD43 doesn't do that, it just decrypts. I use 1CLICK DVD COPY, it's the best and it works great with DVD43.

DVD43 is GREAT!!! I have used it to try to unlock the security protection on literally HUNDREDS of DVD's and I would say it has a success rate of over 95%. From the oldest to the newest DVD's, this software can handle almost anything that is thrown at it. And with the release of DVD43.4.4.1, I'm sure that it's success rate will only improve. Thanks for keeping it FREE!!! There should be more software that is this useful available to the common man without costing him an arm and a leg.

God when are they ever going to make a Vista 64 bit version? I am half tempted to wipe my Vista 64 OS back to XP Pro 32. Why because Vista Sucks period, let alone the 64 bit version. Yeah it looks nice, but has serious issues when it comes to wanting programs. I have a new HP laptop which I online game on. This laptop would be great if it was XP. It has more power then my old desktop, which was the maxed out 64bit single core AMD, on an Asus A7n8x Delux MB.
I need DVD43 to unlock my drive for Divx to convert movies straight from my dvd rom. Gah this is a complete nightmare. Let alone to get my 1Click DVD Copy Pro to run. Please hurry up and fix this.

Sincerely,
Doc_Avi38

I have been using dvd43 for a couple years....I have never had a problem burning a DVD, until I downloaded the newest 3.9.0 version. I have upgraded many times and know how to do it...and I have not added any new software to my computer that may conflict. I have unistalled and reinstalled this new version a couple times...and I still cannot burn DVD's. I get a driver type error message. Is it just ME??? I have not been able to burn any DVD's for nearly a month now. I'm bummed. I use 1clickDVD for my burning software (and have used this for a couple years)
I really think DVD43 is a great FREE program.

just downloaded dvd43 3.9.0...ran it...restarted computer...burn Sony's Ultraviolet movie...8% into download and it kicked me out (green face turned to devil). Anyway, I task manager to end task it (which takes about 2min). Then I restarted my computer, turn on ICopyDVD2 again, reburned Ultraviolet, and VOILA, this time it worked like a charm. And I also was able to burn Chicken Little.
This is what I noticed with ICopyDVD2 (I don't know about other programs), but anyway, anytime when DVD43 goes bad, I'd uninstalled ICopyDVD2 and DVD43 altogether...then restart computer. Then reinstall ICopyDVD2 & DVD43 again. It works fine for me. that's my .02cent.

I use 1ClickDvdCopy (5.0.3.5) & DVD43 (3.9.0) on a 700mHz - 256MB - external LG DVD+/- Dual Layer Burner environment.

I have read previous reviews and I haven't experienced any of these issues. I have copied: Ultraviolet, Cars, Underworld 2, Benchwarmers and probably more. Maybe the issues that people are have are the burners, computers are too fast (I know what you are thinking - not fast enough)

The "Smiley" face no longer opens in my task bar. Although the decryption still appears to work OK. Can anyone tell me how to retrieve the face, back into my task bar. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, but this has not helped, still no "Smiley" face in my taskbar.

RE:The "Smiley" face no longer opens
I sometimes have the same problem, the fix is to open the windows "task manager", open the process tab, highlight "DVD43_Tray.exe and click on "end process". Close Task Manager, then right click the DVD43 icon on your desktop, click "run as". When window opens ensure the box to "protect computer" is checked and click OK. Smiley should imediately open on the task bar and work great.
As long as I keep current on 1Click DVD Copy Pro updates I have no problem backing up my Sony DVD's.

Slick. No frills program, but it does the trick. Not sure if it will work with Sony DVDs though (you have to buy Sony products before you actually know you can rip them)... But, should you wish to rip a Sony DVD, you might want to check out "FixVTS" and "RipIt4Me" from what I hear.

While it doesn't remove protection for all movies, it does for most and it's the simplist way to do it. Use DVD43 and burn with Nero, simple!

I've had no problems with DVD43 so it must be a software conflict for some of you thats causing your problems.
 
1click Oct 19, 2007 3.9.0

This is the only free on-the-fly decrypter any where (believe me, I looked). It does exactly what it says it does, it decrypts.

Some other free tools like DVD Decrypter and DVD Fab Decrypter also decrypt DVDs, but with those tools you have to spend a hour ripping the DVD first to the hard drive before you can copy it and they also waste about 9 GB of disk space for nothing.

DVD43 runs in the background while you copy with your dvd copy software. You have to make sure you are using a decent copy software (like '1Click DVD Copy' for example) that can handle new movies. Decrypters are not meant to deal with these structural problems, your copy software is supposed to.

ARPH dude! Get rid of inCD by nero. Also Goto task manager and end the dvd43 process tree before trying to un-install the program. Remove 1ClickCopy ver.4 before installing ver. 5. If that doesn't work boot in safe mode and remove all DVD programs and add back till you find the problem. You can skip all that and goto a previous restore point and restore your system to a previous XP point. Your last option and everyone loves to do this first is to do a fresh install of the O/S. My advice "get you hands dirty, you will learn stuff". By the way AnyDVD cost $50 but works well with 1Click and ALL windows O/S but your problem is not all that, you need to just look a little harder. Don't give up!

Hi, I have been using DVD43 for many years with great success with 1 Click. I have a new notebook now to find out DVD43 is not compatable with 64 bit. My question is will you be upgrading to allow 64bit usage, and when? Thank you for all your good work.

DVD43 is such a fantastic effective program, I can't praise it enough. I was directed to it by ArchosFan forum & it has been the best. With my new Archos 605 WiFi having 160GB to load up with all the C*ap I can stick onto it, naturally I have to copy all my DVDs & home movies to it. With DVD43 it is so easy. I love to see the little smiley face turn Green. It runs in the background & automatically goes to work as soon as I pop a disk into the drive. Really idiot proof. I just discovered I can copy my VOB from my DVD directly to my Archos w/o even converting them - which takes hours for just 1. But now I can just drag & drop the VOBs onto my Archos & I've got my favorite movies on the fly. I just LOVE it. I'm now trying to figure out how to make Donation to the maker of this freeware program because it's just so cool & useful.

DVD43 is the only software that can work with a minimum of fuss and challenges. However, the movie producers are also coming up with new tricks that wll prevent access to their movies, so I'm glad that DVD43 does keep up with such innovations, or else we will be wasting our time trying to make it work. But I feel that they aren't working fast enough to keep up with these innovations. For example, College Road Trip was inaccessible but with the update of April 2008, I was able to access it but it froze at 18% and couldn't go any further, despite re-starting my system several times. So, I would appreciate it if the DVD43 can look into this movie and figure out what is the bug that is keeping us out of the movie (before other producers get wise and use the same bug to lock us out). Thanks a million and keep up the good work.

i dont know what everyone is saying but lately i've had no problem with this software and think its very helpful. i've gotten movies like bank job and college road trip with no problem, so maybe its your copying program that needs to be updated!

Can anyone shed some light and verify if DVD43 is compatible with Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit before I install it? I had been using it on Windows XP and it worked without any problems.I would appreciate any help/comments!

I have been using DVD43 (Most Recent version/update)and it works flawlessly. The problem with most people and computers is. 1. System requirement. When you are trying to run multiple programs at the same time, you'll have a crash. I believe the reason people are having problems with DVD43 and Vista is because Vista is a heavy memory user and trying to run several programs will cause a lock or crash. Bottom line there are many things that can cause software problems but people are quick to make premature conclusions.

But I have never had a problem with this program.

I have been using it all this time with Vista and never crash. So yes it works!

DVD43 runs okay with win xp sp3 and Nero 7 Ultra using a Memorex DVD+-R 510Lv1 16x drive.

Tips:
1) With Nero 7 Ultra & DVD 43, I found the best way to clone or copy the encrypted DVD is to use the image writer to copy entire DVD to a hard drive folder.

2) To avoid Errors when writing to a DVD or CD, before opening Nero or inserting bland media, first right click the DVD43 tray icon and 'Exit'.

3) I've created both a complete DVD on a DL 8.5GB disk and a main movie (no menus) on a standard 2 hour disk.

A nit: when I installed DVD43, the installer puts a shortcut on my desktop even though I told it NOT to do that during intall dialog.

DVD43 seems to be a little misunderstood. It won't help you avoid bad sectors or fix up problems on new DVDs, but it does decrypt 100% of the DVDs I've tested.

You need to have a decent copy program to handle the bad sectors and messed up crap they stick on some of these newer DVDs. I use 1CLICK DVD COPY with DVD43, and it's always worked well for me. Plus, they update their software each time new DVDs are released which cause new problems.

So, if you can't get DVD43 to work with your DVD copy software, consider changing copy programs. The latest version DVD43 4.3.1 is the best version yet. I agree some older versions could not handle the newer movies, but 4.3.1 is right up to date and decrypts perfectly.

note for HORTES
Google for DVD43 - first site I saw included data and various download sites (incl the author's) AND gave links to download previous versions.

I've used DVD43 (older version) on XP - excellent! Just changed to Vista, a bit concerned about reviews seen here so will wait a while for positive feedback before using ... have enough problems without inportng more!

I recently purchased ICopyDVDs2 and was directed to download dvd43 for the encryption thing. I copied a few movies with success But last nite tried to burn "History of Violence" and kept getting errors especially one saying "INDEX OF BOUNDS". Tech help said certain movies couldn't be copied. I wasn't told that when I bought the software. Then I tried "Chicken Little" but it would not copy. I ruined several dvd+r's. I called tech help and was told to update but wasn't really informed how or where. Any ideas anyone please email me at: angelalee4@comcast.net and ty. This is all very frustrating as I only want back up copies. Again, TY. Angie

Not bad but could be a tiny bit better. I'd give it a four instead of five because of copy problems in some movies but they are minor.

As for those who think the MPAA is fair, guess again. I make copies of my DVD so that I can store my original copy and protect it.

I don't give a ratz butt about rules and regulations regarding copying your own disc. I've been dubbing video tapes for 20 years with no problems and will continue to copy DVD's for my own use.

Excellent freeware alternative to AnyDVD. I would choose this over AnyDVD in just about every situation. It is nice to see it remain functional and be updated to include new protections. Great for people with kids who want to simply make backup copies of items they have already paid for so that the originals can be tucked away from peanut butter and scratches. :)

Combine this with DVD Shrink or some other DVD processing app and you should be good to go.

ckasprzak,
Instead of messing with the registry. Start|Run and type msconfig Go to the startup tab and uncheck DVD43. It won't auto start on every boot.
Hopefully a future version will have a check box so it doesn't load on every boot.

Frankc4, please READ before making useless posts. Now read this again:
"...it does not alter the image of the original DVD and will not remove copy protection (other than CSS encryption) added to the DVD. If the DVD structure is non standard or the DVD contains bad sectors, your copy program needs to take care of that."

when this system works, it is great! I am running windows XP and have never had this problem with DVD43 and 1Click until I updated to the latest version of DVD43 (4.4). I get a message with DVD43 that says "this video DVD doesn't match the region code of the DVD device and the device refuses to read encrypted data". Any help on this issue would be much appreciated. Thanks

Both 1 Click DVD Copy and DVD43 have both worked great up until the last couple of days. Now every time I try to copy I get the meassage: ---------------------------
1Click DVD Copy 33%
---------------------------
A read error has occurred while reading a file.
The file may be encrypted or cannot be read correctly by the DVD device.
If you are using a decrypter, you may need to restart it before running 1Click DVD Copy.

OK

That message means the OS needs to be restarted. You cant even 'log off' and 'log back in' either.

Im using 3.7.0.133 with DVD decrypter. First time I had to use DVD43 was on the movie 'The Recruit'. I kept getting an error message, and it would not finish the decrypt. Tried having DVD43 running and it worked like a charm. Rated a 4 out of 5 because I have only needed it once.

I've started using this thing consistently and am impressed. There may be no need to use ANYDVD at all when this thing can do the same job for FREE.

Why pay when you don't need to?

Hey Download DVD Decrypter you are spamming Betanews with the same message. Click on his username and you will see all his reviews are the same. Spammer and scammer.

DVD43 and RipIt4ME are both good FREE DVD ripping tools but if you want really good DVD rippers you're going to have to PAY. Slysoft AnyDVD HD or DVDFAB Platinum HD are both excellent, constantly updated and well-known. I have used both for several years. DVDFAB is better for noobs since it is more user-friendly than Slysoft.

Very cool that this is free, though I too wish it was updated more often.

However, it does seem to work just as well as the competition, which charges bucks for the same basic function.

Keep up the good work, please.

Good program, but not updated enough. If you want to be able to back up any movie, use AnyDVD by Slysoft. It is just like this, but updated several times a month. It is not free though.

I use 1 click DVD copy DVD43 3.8 wouldn't let me copy The movie "When A Stranger Calls" The little Devil logo would come up.. I found out it has the Sony ARccOS Protection on the movie. So I went online and found another software. DVD Region+CSS Free. And it WORK GREAT. You must Uninstall DVD43 to work. The DVD Region+CSS Free software is Free to Try for 30 days. After that it cost $39.95 with free Updates.. one more thing dose the New update of DVD43 3.9 takes care of the Sony ARccOS Protection??? Someone let me Know..

I have ran into this also. I have bought one spool of 100 dvd-R maxell that you have to put lables on and another spool of maxell dvd-R printable. Every TIME my system does not reconize the dvd as a blank dvd I usuall install the printable dvd and it works. I never EVER have a problem with the printable DVD but always seem to have problems with the non-printable

DVD43 works VERY well and once everybody learns it is like riding a bike. One thing though (why I gave a 4 instead of a 5) is that with Sony dvd's it makes your computer lock up to where the face goes all demonic and you can't shut your computer down and have to hold the button in to make it power off. That is the reason why "Saw 3" would not copy. I have heard of some people copying Sony dvds but I think they are full of crap. No one I have ever talked to has ever been able to do it ever. If anyone needs any help I would be more than willing to help you. You can email me at mone4jason@gmail.com .

Monica

Very nice program. It think the other reviewers had conflicts with their decoders. I understand that paying a couple of bucks to not have problems is worth it, but $39.95 for a DVD decoder, another $39.95 for a Region + copyright unlocker and another $39.95 to convert a legal DVD so it will play on your iPod seems like a lot to me. I downloaded this program DVD43, and XP-Codec-Pack-1.3.4. They worked prefectly together better than one program I bought and another one I evalutated. DVD's should just work.

I have used DVD43 for several years now. It will not decypher dvd's distributed by Sony, Disney and sometimes Lionsgate, and Paramont. This may be the reason for some of your problems. I have found that DVD43 works for about 80% of the dvd's released. An alternative to DVD43 and DVDshrink is Magic DVD Copier / Ripper. Magic DVD works on 100% of all dvd's and is updated atleast once a month. Also DVD Shrink is the best software to use with DVD43 for backing up your DVD'S

I have tried more than one disc and the same thing happens. Not only that but then my computer freezes and I have to hard boot the system. All software and drivers are up to date so that is not the problem. Can't seem to get anyone to address or acknowledge the problem. Don't have a problem with there being a problem only the not admitting to or correcting the problem is the problem. ^%%$@*

Sony nailed him. Too bad. I think they should go after people trying to profit from selling decrypting software. Freeware authors are not doing it for the profit motive, after all, right? This DVD43Free sounds kind of like what AnyDVD does, is that correct? I'd much rather have a free version than someone charging for something developed from Open Source.

Same issue here. Have been using 1ClickDVD and DVD43 for about 2 years or more. The combination always worked flawlessly, until I recently update to latest 1Click version and latest DVD43. Now I get Read Errors during 1ClickDVD copy process, and DVD's that copy without errors just spin at "Loading" in my DVD player. DVD player is new. I restored older 1Click and 4.0 of DVD43, but combination is still unstable. I shutdown DVD43, uninstalled, and then re-installed, so I suspect I'm clear of newer version.

works on some, but not most newer ones. If the best they have to offer for updates is some sort of error correction, rather than updates for protections, using nothing is free too... get my meaning? AnyDVD is pay once, lifetime updates, and I've never missed with that one.

Hey. I never had a problem with DVD43 (version 4.0.0) until I got the latest version of 1ClickDVDCopy and suddenly all went wrong. Now I am unable to make backup of any of my DVDs. I get from "Unable to connect. You must reinstall driver", to "There is a problem with the region code" and "Unable to copy due to an error in the system".

I thought I was the only one, until I called a friend and he said "Dude, I follow your advice with 1Click and now I cannot back up anything unless it has already been burned before".

Any suggestions? Should I get the newest version of 1Click? (almost 60 bucks!!!)

Cheers,

I have used this program for a couple of years now and it works great, decrypting 100% of dvd movies. Unfortunately, if you are running Windows VISTA you are probably going to run into problems. I ran into the same issue as another poster here did. When trying to use DVD43 with vista, my system locks up and has to be hard booted. This seems to only happen when using the newest version of DVD43. Does anyone have the previous version I can get?

Still no 64 bit support! Works great on my old 32 bit XP pc but I am very disappointed that there still isn't a version that will work with my new 64 bit Vista Ultimate pc. Hopefully 64 bit support will be added in the near future.

I have been usuing dvd43 for a few months now and i was having no prpblems with it. Now I need help. Every time i click to start copying a dvd i get this message. Acesss violation at address 00417DF7 in module 'dvd43_Tray.exe. Read of address 00000008. The devil face stays on and i have a hard time getting it off. When I finally did get it off I removed the program and reinstalled it and it still does the same thing. I could use some help. Thanks

DVD43-I just loaded the 3.9.0 version with 1ClickDVD and have had mega problems with it. It locks up my computer and leaves the DVD43_Tray.exe running. I have to kill the process before I can even shutdown my computer.

I'm wondering if the software I'm using is not compatible with this version of DVD43. I'm using the latest version of X- Copy Platinum version 5.0.0.13. It goes through the motions like the smiley face going evil then turning green but goes into ERROR after reading it about half way through. If anyone has the same experience or any thoughts please reply. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. It is unfair of me to rate this low, but it has'nt worked for me yet.

I've recently upgraded from Ver 4.3 to Ver 4.40 and since then, I've been unable to analyse any movie title (at least 20 titles). Either all the movie producers are using some advanced technology or there are some serious bugs in the latest version of the DVD43 software. Please contact me at benitus@sbcglobal.net if you require detailed info but I seriously hope and pray that you guys can work to resolve these bugs soonest possible. Thank you. CK.

I just downloaded dvd43, it reads the disc then the little happy face turns green, then when i try to copy my dvd it does not work. The roxio program still says that the dvd is copy protected.

This software is junk. Sure it allows for easy copying of protected DVD's and I can trust someone would use it for their own personal use and that's their business right there what they do. BUT, in the wrong hands it can be used for illegal purposes - MEANING PIRACY - and for that particular reasi=on I have given the software not only low marks, but a complaint directed at the MPAA. Trash like this is why the studios lose money over unclaimed profits!! Now I'm not saying this as a representative of Hollywood (of which I am no such thing) - no, I'm sayng this as a just, concerned citizen - but I would advise this software be removed from the Internet to protect the free market from idiots who make it easy to abuse the system. Just because you have a good idea doesn't mean you should do it - if it were otherwise, Napster would still be free and there would be no need for me to rant off about this kind of thing (and neither is the case here, or in society for that matter). You get the idea. That's why I'm marking it so low... and why I complained to the MPAA on the software's existence. We're talkin' about "sumthin' fer nuthin'" stuff here in more than one way. So don't download this and you won't give the writer/s of the software any reason to do something that can legally backfire on him/her/them.

Same problem as growthis - just installed newest 1Click DVD Copy Pro and was prompted to upgrade to newest DVD43 - result - copy function stops at 99% with message "A read error has occurred while reading a file. The file may be encrypted or cannot be read by the DVD device. If you are using a decrypter, you may need to restart it before running 1Click DVD Copy Pro".

Have uninstalled DVD43 and reinstalled and rebooted and spent hours trying to resolve. Tried the suggestion of deleting DVD43 from Processes in Windows Task Manager right click on icon and select run as................no joy. Getting very annoyed.....has worked well for more than a year and now this.

I had to go back to v3.9 as v4 ruined the DVD drivers. As a result, it kept telling me that the region codes don't match, thus I couldn't watch a movie on my MCE -- even when DVD43 was closed!

Severe problem in hijacking the CD/DVD drivers

That's why you guys need to use AnyDvd from SlySoft. To this date never had any problems with AnyDvd. They update more often & sure it cost a few bucks...but if time & aggravation with not being able to decrypt your project is not worth it, keep using DVD43. Hands down AnyDvd from Slysoft Wins!

I agree. I have used this program with 1click dvdcopy and Roxio Creator for over a year with no problems. tonight,(May 5) however, after having purchased the new pro version of 1clickdvd it said to update my dvd43 and now it won't work. It won't let me install the dvd43 update, it says the program is already running. It won't let me uninstall the old program, I can't shut it down, I get an error message, it won't show up green when a disc is inserted, it won't even let me shut my computer down. What is going on?

I'm trying to get 4.3.1 working on Vista Home Premium (SP1). So far no lockups. I did learn that it needs to be installed in Administrator mode. But so far I can't get the yellow smiley to turn green no matter what DVD I put in. I will be trying to use I Copy DVDs 2, but I haven't gotten that far yet.

I'm running Vista Home Premium on a Gateway GM5632E. dvd43 simply locks up my computer to the point that I have to do a hard shutdown. I had to uninstall if from safe mode. Wish it worked, but it didn't.04/25/08.
