I appreciate the help

At the risk of sounding churlish, this is really a video editing/ film making site not a site for those wanting to copy commercial dvds for thier mates.

To be honest it's all a complete pain in the arse innit, I suggest buying the dvd, it really is cheaper if you look at the time / hassle inolved in decrypting / ripping / copying.
