Ubuntu :: K9copy 2.3.6 Still Can't Do Disney Movies?
Nov 11, 2010
I've tried pretty much every DVD ripping program available, DVD::Rip, DVD95converter, DVD Movie Backup. My favorite backup program is k9copy (easiest to use and has all the features I need). But no matter what I try, certain Disney movies just won't backup. Specifically, at the moment, many of the Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli films.
After selecting the disc, the program either crashes out immediately, or it starts filling up the memory, slowing everything down, until finally it crashes. I thought updating to the newest version would maybe help (not even available through standard "Update Manager", had to find it myself), but the same problems occur. I'm currently trying with ddrescue, hoping that works. But I don't really like the idea of using a series of programs to get the output I want.
Is there a program that can backup, compress, and convert a Disney movie into a playable/burnable ISO file? Because these films are Japanese, I would definitely prefer something that can output normal switchable subtitles and audio (as opposed to an MPG or AVI that just has the one audio track).
Recently I've purchased a Disney's dvd featuring FastPlay. There is also a sign 'copying protection' on it. While it plays smoothly in Windows, I can't even 'see' it in my Ubuntu 10.10, not to mention playing it. What is the cause: FastPlay or copyright protection?
As far as I can tell, I have all the applicable applications and plugins (for this, Debian 5.0.6 installation). I type in Code:about:plugins in either iceweasel or epiphany browser and get a list that includes:
Code: Installed plugins Find more information about browser plugins at mozilla.org.
I cant download k9copy :S I cant find it anywhere on the getdeb and the link to the getdeb k9copy page on the k9copy website just takes me to the welcome page.
I have made the jump to Ubuntu, I have installed 10.10 on a Dell Precision 360, I have sound on VLC player, internet radio, but when I want to preview in K9copy I see the Video but hear no sound.
This may also be the issue with dvdshrink under wine, which loops fo about second or 2
I dual boot between Windozs XP professional and Ubuntu
I'm attempting to rip a DVD made by a friend, and I am using k9copy with minimal success. I am attempting to rip to .avi, but every time I start the backup, my DVD drive shuts off at 64%. I get this issue: Code: Executable: k9copy PID: 6563 Signal: Segmentation fault (11)I have had a few issues with the drive before, but nothing this consistent. I'm running k9copy 2.3.5 and 10.10 maverick.
About 2 weeks ago I upgraded my Ubuntu OS from 8.04 to 8.10 and then to 9.04 with kernel 2.6.28 - 10 - Generic.Today I discovered K9Copy no longer works. When I start K9Copy it comes up ok but if I click on anything in the main window (file, copy, etc.) I get a message that says:A fatal error occured.The application K9Copy crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV)
I am using k9copy to extract the five titles in a DVD ISO-image to separate avi-files. I selected the copy option for both audio and video, and made sure all the tracks were selected. The resulting avi's played without sound in Totem. VLC gave an error message that audio format " []" was not supported.
I then did the extract again, selecting aac for the audio processing. The result was the same.
Again, with mp2, the same result.
The DVD contains audio in "mp2 2ch 48KHz 20bps" format (information shown by k9copy).
When I play the video from the ISO, using VLC, sound is ok.
How can I get k9copy to extract the video with sound?
I'm trying to use K9copy in Ubuntu 10:10 to shrink some videos from a straight iso copy down to a 800MB avi file. The video seems to copy fine and the picture looks fine but when I try play it in VLC theres no sound.
Is there something I'm missing? And yes I played the ISO in VLC and had it play with sound fine.
I want to copy one track/chapter from a DVD to an AVI file, but the sound is not copied only the video. I
- selected track/chapter by clicking checkbox - selected 'MPEG-4 encoding' for output - used default settings (codecs were 'copy' for video and audio) - clicked DVD copy action
Result:
1. Movie Player: no sound 2. VLC: Error message 'No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video format How can I get sound and video?
P.S. Using k9copy version 2.3.5. I tried all audio codecs available in the k9copy Audio tab. They failed in the same way as before. The chapter list contains 'audio 1 Unknown pcm 2ch 48kHz 16bps'. I don't know how to interpret that. Also installed and tried AcidRip and Dvd:rip. Sound worked fine for both. AcidRip did not show any audio settings. Dvd:rip showed:
If I use K9Copy to compress a 6.4 gb DVD to a 4.4gb ISO files, it heats up the CPU and the machine shuts off. When I do this with system monitor ON, I see 160% to 180% CPU usage. I guess this is due to dual core on my Gateway laptop.Then I installed DVD Shrink and tried the same by running DVD Shrink using Wine. This caused the same problem.I did not have this issue when I was using Windows Vista. Is there anything that I can do to avoid this problem?
Last week I did the upgrade from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04. Did it on-line, and it went really well; actually the best upgrade since I started with Dapper I promptly got rid of the Unity desktop and went back to Gnome. Everything worked normally, except K9copy does not work any more. Whether I invoke it from the terminal or the Apps menu, it open the first window and crashes when trying to read the DVD; here is the terminal output:
I am trying to install the latest version of K9copy, but the only available version is in the .tar.gz file package. I placed the folder on my desktop and extracted the files. Now I have the .tar.gz file and the extracted files on the desktop. I need to install the files, but I don't know which command to use or what to do to get any commands to work.
(Keep in mind that the extracted folder is named 'k9copy-2.3.4-Source.tar.gz') ./configure make make install This seems to be the most common answer to install the files, but it NEVER works, nor do I understand where the package files come into play when I type this command into the terminal.
I have just installed Lucid Lynx but cannot get K9copy to work at all. It loads, but closes as soon as I try to open the dvd. Anyone else getting similar problems, or, more to the point, does anyone know how to fix it?
I had some problems upgrading from 10.4 to 10.10, and I had to select the "safe mode" equivalent option in the grub loader to boot, or else my system would hang at the screen with the dots before the login prompt. I restored the packages and now my system works. I am not sure if this is relevant to my problem.
K9Copy worked fine prior to upgrading to 10.10, now it crashes as soon as I load it. I have searched but found nothing relevant to my problem.
Trying to make a dvd9 fit on a dvd5. Mainly would like to strip all the menus so it plays nicely. The DVD in question is copy protected but plays just fine on my system with Movie Player or VLC.But so far when dvd95 or k9copy tries to analyze the structure of the dvd, they just turn grey and hang. Then my computer locks shortly after. If I have system monitor open I can see what happens -- it's not a hard lock. Basically the memory just starts filling up, and then when it starts filling the swap space that slows everything down and makes it unresponsive. If I'm really patient I can get to a console and kill the process, which returns my system to normal.Handbrake works just fine, but I don't actually want to transcode the video, just strip the menus.
This is not a huge deal but I have missing hard drive space, I re-sized an iso with k9copy I then used mv to move it to the other iso like so:
Code: mv this.iso that.iso which moved and renamed it, however I did not get any drive space back by effectively "deleting" the first iso. So my question is do I have an unnamed iso file floating around that cannot be deleted?
I have a problem with K9Copy's back up system it cannot seem to shrink a DVD9 down to 4.7gb to fit on a standard 4.7gb DVD Disk, how to correct this? As it renders K9copy totally pointless for me.
I have triple monitors working on my 10.10 ubuntu system and they work for most things. Except k9copy and virtual box will cause x to restart. glxgears works fine.

I finally got K9copy to work and I'm using it to extract DVDs to my hard drive. I extract a dual layer DVDs it becomes a 5GB DVD. In the settings, I have DVD size as 9GB because I assumed this would not cause any compression. When I use k9copy assistant to change the shrink factor before ripping, I can only change the shrink factor of some titles to 1.67 from 2.50. I want the shrink factor to be 1 since this seems to ensure that the output of the file is the same size as the title on the dvd. I want the copied DVD to be the same size as the original. I have no problem with hard drive space since I have 6 terrabytes of free space.
Running Opensuse KDE 11.2 64bit. Trying to backup DVD, but no sound after playing ripped copy. After looking at the settings in K9copy and DVD95, the sound section says "Unknown AC3" where it normally says "English AC3". I've tried mencoder and ffmpeg.
I am having a great time very quickly migrating from Windows through Ubuntu.
One area that I am still having trouble in is transcoding VOB into DivX, XviD, AVI, etc. I have been succesful one time using k9copy and it made a great looking avi. Since that time I get a failure on the 2nd pass. It seems as if the problem is related to the line in the error log "requested bit rate too low". So I changed from filesize to bitrate selection in the wizard and set it at max (99999). This got it to start the 2nd pass but still ended up crashing about 3/4 of the way through with an unexpected error message. Undaunted i tried again with the same setup and options. This time I once again got the bitrate too low error on the 2nd pass.
I have tried other GUI apps like avidemux (sound out of sync with that one), WinFF (not merging the vob's together), and others without satisfactory results. It would be great if I could get k9copy to work as it did the first try as it did exactly what I am looking for.
I have mencoder and all the depedencies installed (I believe). I am running a quad core amd64 bit processor and ubuntu 10.04.
It is just puzzling to me that k9copy worked flawlessly the first time and now nothing but trouble.
These are VOB's that have been put together by IFOedit from files dmuxed by DVDdecryter (under wine) stripped of copy guard. I take the ac3 soundtrack and convert it into WAV so that i can add a commentary (rifftrax) in audacity, then convert that back into ac3 and combine it all together again. I have been doing this for some time in Windows, and can now do everything in Ubuntu except for the avi transcode (really bothersome to reboot into windows just to run DivX Pro converter).
I'm trying to copy DVD's to 700mb so that they will play in DIVX on my DVD player. I'm using K9Copy 2.3.5.I've set the options to:And also tried changing the codec to MPEG-4 (DIVX 4/5)But when I select the title I wish to copy, no MPEG-4 tabs appear at the bottom of K9Copy to adjust the settings for each chapter.This means that the avi file created is 3.2GB.
I was wondering if it was possible to play .bin/.cue movies. I was able to do it with daemon tools in windows and acetoneiso doesn't seem to like the file format. I was led to bchunk but the isos it made seem to be corrupt. Any way to play these movies?
I am trying to set up a new HTPC and at the recommendation of those from this forum I installed MythUbuntu. My HTPC includes an Asus Blu-ray player. However MythUbuntu will not play my blu-ray disks. It will play regular DVDs just fine. What do I need to do for MythUbuntu to play Blu-ray disks?
My friend has her laptop plugged in to her TV and it works well, except Movie Player and VLC's video display windows are black. The Desktop display is fine on the TV and I can see the movie on the laptop, but on the TV it is just a black window on the Desktop. Using 9.04 with an ATI200M graphics card.
Well, I have a problem. I can't play any movies (.avi, .mpg, .wmv) with any reproductor. Everytime i open a movie with any player, the player closes immediately. I try with VLC "Tools --> Preferences --> Video --> Display --> Output" and i can see movies, but with a very very bad quality and the films stopped very times.
How can I play DVD movies with Ubuntu9.1? I had it working at one time and wiped my harddrive reinstalling Ubuntu9.1. Even with VLC I can't watch a movie.
