DVDFab HD Decrypter 8.1.3.3 beta
on 17 November 2011, reviewed by: Jim Kress

The software only works correctly, intermittently. It seems that every time they issue a new release, either an old bug slips back in or a new one is created.

If you attempt to get support they request large amounts of information, basically using large amounts of your time (which costs you money), to debug their problems. Then, if you complain about the lack of stability in their product and their inability to provide software in which previously "fixed" bugs reappear, they either ban you from their support forum or delete your posts/ requests for help.

All-in-all the dvdfab "team" does not appear to be particularly competent or professional when it comes to development and support of commercial grade software. They appear to have no knowledge or use of modern software development tools and methods (e.g. revision control. unit testing, etc.). Their "support" team is arrogant, intolerant and dismissive of user complaints.

This is all topped off by their refusal to refund your payment for this mediocre and poorly supported amateur-grade software. I will not renew my subscription when it expires.

I would strongly recommend you not waste your money on dvdfab, unless you are a masochist or glutton for punishment.

copying dvd & blu ray to dvd is good, but ripping from blu ray to mp4 or other formats is sometimes frustrating. the video is way ahead of the sound.
i've tried from ps3 to xbox, same result.

I have been using the free HD Decrypter for some time now. It works great and updates for new movies come out frequently. However, once you use any of the trialware, access to the free HD Decrypter goes away.

I bought the Ripper and now when I try to use HD Decrypter I get the DVD Copy instead which expires after 30 days.

An uninstall / reinstall seems to reactivate the trialware but it would be better if the HD Decryter access was not disabled when you purchase a license to some of the features of the program.

By the way Ripper is also a great program for converting DVDs to avi or other formats.

So far I like this software. But I have one questions here.

Where is the difference between DVDFab HD Decrypter and the DVD decrypter for decrpyting DVD. DVD decrypter was banned awhile ago by the movie industry. But why DVDFab HD decrypter is legal?

RE: Question on IPOD:

"i downloaded it. i wanted to try and put dvd's on my iPod. it decrypted my dvd. but now how do i get it on my ipod... help??"

-----------------------------

Watch where it is saving the file when your rip it.

Do one of the follwoing:

1. add the folder to your ipod library
2. from itunes use the add the specific file option to select the file to add to itunes
3. manually copy the file from its default location to your itunes folder (or when you goto rip...make sure you rip it straight to that folder.

Its just like anything else you have to have it in your itunes library folder then its just a matter of syncing.

PS you will want to rename the files as it give them generic names (for example Bee Movie was like "b.title.dvd.mp4"

DVDFab HD Decrypter 5 is no longer freeware. It is nagware. Basically, you install the full version and you are presented with a screen that asks you to insert a key or use the 'free' version. This means that program installs several things in your PC that count the install days and stuff. As it is, DVD HD Decrypter is not for me. I 'll stick with RipIt4Me...

Thank you for confirming this. I downloaded the completely free HD Decrypter and all three were the full, 30-day trial versions.

Still looking for one that might have slipped through the internet cracks.

have always had success with the dvdfab ever since i found it,and i always come back to see if there is an updated version,i just need to know the uses for this new dvdfab 4.0.05 beta versions new tools what they are for and how to use them,if i really need to use them or not,KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK,also i need to thank the people here at free codecs for the great service they provide since i found this site i have learned and been able to do so much more on the pc than ever,just one request,it would be easier for me to use more of the product here if they came with more detail instructions and pics and their uses,instead of trying to fumble my way through the program and screwing something up,just a reasonable request since im pc novice,
thanks again

I Love this software. I have used FAB for about 2 years and it has always worked great for me. I tried to burn the movie "Happily Never After" and it decrypter fine, but when I went to burn it, I kept getting and error saying that the files could not be reallocated. Does anyone have a clue as to why this is? Keep Up the great work, it is much appreciated.

I cant get it to work. After spending money on DVD Shrink I was told to try Easy DVD Clone (which rarely copied without and VOP error) now I was referred to this DVD Fab, cant get that to work, when I contacted support asking them how long it will take to get my money's worth and be able to copy more than a couple of movies, there response was "about 30 minutes" I feel like i have been ripped off!!!!

It would be nice to have a tutorial ALREADY in place BEFORE making it available for download. Kind of hard to figure out w/o any clues as to what to do/how to get started. I figured out how to rip/copy (that's the easy part), but I can't figure out how to save it, where to save it to, and what to do next in order to get the DVD movie to my ipod (hard part). I need help with this thing!!!

This product works! The only promblem with this sofware is that it doesn't shrink the movie to fit it into one layered dvd. Luckily there is another program that does that which could also be downloaded free, dvdshrink! With these two softwares working together there all dvds are copiable.

Another botched released. Back to 2983. I tried ripping Barton Fink - a fairly old DVD. Once it finished, I opened it in PGC Edit and previewed Title 12 - still pictures. It said "Error while loading VOB file... Could it be encrypted?" All versions after 2983 have this problem. They all routinely screw up still pictures, still menus, even the movie itself (ex: Drugstore Cowboy). I can't rely on DVDFab any more. They're much too unreliable now. They're deleting still pictures and failing to decrypt the movie correctly. The problem persists, even if I disable AnyDVD. The only working version of DVDFab is 2983.

I am glad to see that I am not the only one experiencing problems!!!

I totally agree with 'North America'. As stated in my review 9/25/06, I have been experiencing the same problems with all DVDFab decrypter versions after. v2.9.8.3.

I even wrote them (DVDFab Decrypter)directly, and they blamed it on my CloneDVD program, which incidentally worked fine with every version of DVDFab decrypter through 2.9.8.3, so I know it is not my copying program that has problems.

I hope people who are paying for the more "complete" vesion aren't experiencing these same problems.

Every version after 2983 gives errors frequently when files are checked with PGC Edit. Also, if a DVD has any still pictures, they are often messed up. Menus with still pictures are often messed up too. In short, every version after 2983 has been broken, in one way or another. I don't know what is wrong with the development team, but they are not doing something right. I've tried everything and nothing will fix these problems.

I have loved your free version of DVDFab Decrypter, but since approx. the beginning of Sept. 2006, I have not been able to use DVDFab Decrypter v3.0.01. beta 5,7,8,10, 3.0.1.0 Final, or the most current v3.0.1.2 with my CloneDvd.

Every version before those worked fine (I believe the last was 7/2006). I am now getting errors on every movie, such as the one below. Any suggestions?

Here is the error:

Error Creating DVD Files
Creation of dvd files was not successful
Common 4 1018 59551 PS 7 1024 IDNP VOBU 4 131015 258 TCE
