problem:
Some new DVD's don't rip
Steps to reproduce the problem:
I play dvd on mac and get correct title
I then scan only that title in handbrake and select it
then I start handbrake
It runs for 2 seconds says it is finished and file is o bytes
HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0)
Version 1.0.7 (2017040900)
Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.3 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update)
Mac High sierra 10.13.1
with home brew and libdvdcss 1.4.0 installed
Anyone else seeing this? Any work arounds . Is something changing with encryption.
Not all new DVD's do this?
Thanks

Re: Some new DVDs don't rip on Mac
Using third-party add-ons to enable decryption is not supported here, in large part because there are many things that can break it, and even when it works, it cannot rip all sources (copy protection schemes change rapidly), and has very little in the way of information when it encounters dirty or damaged disks.
The dedicated rippers like MakeMKV and similar detect/decode more copy protection schemes, and generate files that work well with handbrake.

Re: Some new DVDs don't rip on Mac
I got a message about disk copy protection when I first loaded the dvd source into Handbrake. On subsequent tries I didn't get the warning, however, my encoded .m4v files were approx 3GB and useless for viewing, just pixilated garbage.

Try ripping with makemkv first then encode with HB.

That worked. Thanks.

There is no guarantee that MakeMKV or any other free standing ripping app will work, they fail at times as well. Make sure the disc is clean and scratch free, install the latest version of Handbrake and anything else associated with it, reboot and try again, it might work lol
