What's New:

3.1.9.2 Beta (Sep 18, 2007):
- New: Improved "PathPlayer" to handle DVD with BOV (button over video).
- New: Removed unreferenced VTS and PGC for clean DVD structure and better compression.
- New: Program is signed now for security.
- Fix: Endless opening time in certain cases when "PathPlayer" works.
- Fix: Some DVD content may be removed when "PathPlayer" works.
- Fix: "Encoding FPS" info is wrong for "DVD to Mobile".
- Fix: AAC encoding bitrate is wrong for "DVD to Mobile".
- Fix: Audio data is removed in "VOB passthrough" when selecting LPCM stream for "DVD to Mobile".

3.1.9.0 Beta (Sep 14, 2007):
- New: Brand new "PathPlayer" technology which gives DVDFab the ability to copy DVD content only allowed to be played on a real DVD player. In this way, DVDFab will ignore unplayed content which may contain copy protection.
- New: Added support for a new copy protection as found on "Bridge to Terabithia", (R2, German).
- New: Added support for a new copy protection as found on "Curse of the Golden Flower", (R2, UK).
- New: Brand new "DVD to Mobile" framework which gives DVDFab the ability to take the power of dual core (or more cores) CPU. Our test shows the H.264 encoding on dual core system speeds up to 200%.
- New: "DVD to Mobile" feature uses a lot of of open source libraries, like FFmpeg, x264, xvid, liba52, faac, lame, etc. DVDFab is compatible with open source GPL/LGPL license, and thanks for the help of open source community.

How "PathPlayer" works?
"PathPlayer" works like a real DVD player, it follows every play path of a DVD, visits every thing that you can access on DVD player with a remote controller. When "PathPlayer" finishes, we can know all the DVD content that a real DVD player will read. The copy protection exists in the unplayed DVD content, DVDFab will not read it when copying.

Note: "PathPlayer" is a very powerful technology. We have done test with all our discs which means it's very stable now. But it's completely new so if you encounter problem that some DVD content is not copied, please tell us, thanks!

Best Regards,
Fengtao

Thanks Fab Team

Great work, Fengtao and Ting!

Really do appreciate all the extremely hard work which you, and the others in your team, put into keeping DVDFab updated in this way.

The girls also send their regards and thanks.

See you later then, and thanks again. Jim

And hi to the gang

Thanks for the fantastic job you do with the updates.

Fengtao and Comp., you all are an amazing bunch of hard working people. Thank you for the timely updates and keeping Fab at the cutting edge of this kind of software. Take care ya'll. ~ Mike

Thanks Fentao

Ting

Encoding FPS and Task Time Left still do not seem right in 3.1.9.2. (Archos 504/2500kbps/One Pass/Core Duo 1.8GHz). Encoding FPS reports 160-170 fps, task time still 2X what is reported.

Thanks Fengtao, great changelog. I am testing this right now. Great work, you and Ting are very dedicated and I really appreciate it.

Just tried to copy new release "The Condemned" with new beta and when analyzing gets read errors. Went back to 3.1.8.0 and it worked fine.

Rock & Roll...

Dear Fengtao,

to activate PathPlayer, should I disable REMOVE DVD STRUCTURE PROTECTION in PROTECTION menu???

Thanks.

I used 3192 beta this morning on Saw3 R4/R1
Perfect copy in less than half the time it took 3180 to do the same movie.

I just got done with that title also, it worked fine. It must have been the disc. I just bought it this morning. I used 3.1.9.2. No problems with full disc, I will try movie only. What settings did you use?

Blade - House of CHTHON (US) does not copy. It sits at 0% and the DVD drive activity light doesn't even flash.

Thanks Fengtao and Ting!

2 thumbs up for Fengtao and Ting!

Thank for your fine work and continued support... It is really appreciated..Bob..

Thank you Fengtao & Ting
Can't work real with your excelent Software, because updates too fast

Confirming BENHAD's observation (above) although I made no note of the time a Main Movie --- copy time must have been near 50% quicker, looking forward to more goodies
Thanks for the promotion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Clive

Is this a new movie, I have never even heard of it.

Alan looks like there may be two versions of Region 1 out there one has no bad sectors and other has many. I will attach the ifo files to this post. DVD Fab HD and Plat versions 3.1.9.2 get read error when analyzing disc if I click abort finishes but have not tried to rip. If I roll back to version 3.1.8.0 no read error while analyzing. Oh yes you wanted to know what mode I was doing full disk mode.
