A copy protected video appears fine in preview, but distorted after ripping

Post by LSK »

Description of problem or question:

I am trying to rip a DVD that has a form of copy protection. When I open the DVD in VLC, there's a green layer on the bottom. Previewing the DVD in HandBrake makes it appear fine, but ripping the DVD produces the same visual issue. How can I rip the DVD so it looks like the preview?

Ripping the DVD produces this issue

HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):

1.3.3

Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
