vob file, but then the menu didn't work. Vobblanker, a windows app that <br>
works under wine allowed me to remove the annoying crap and keep the <br>
menus working. I rip DVDs using Handbrake and store the resulting video <br>
files on a hard drive. I use the DVDs as a backup. I was curious how <br>
to remove the annoying crap. If I'm going to pay good money for a DVD, <br>
I believe I have the right to back it up so I can watch the video <br>
without risking wear and tear or damage to the DVDs I bought. Anything <br>
I've read on the matter says it's legal to make a backup copy, but not <br>
to share it with or give it to others. Also don't the feds have other <br>
stuff more important to worry about?<br>
