However, the development of DVD Decrypter was stopped in 2005 and its official site www.dvddecrypter.com was also shut down. Although we are still able to download DVD Decrypter from mirror site or somewhere else and install it on computer to copy DVD to hard drive, we find that this deprecated software application cannot satisfy user needs in most cases and there's demand for DVD Decrypter alternative.

Why We Need a DVD Decrypter Alternative?

1. Although DVD Decrypter can copy DVDs protected with CSS, UOP, Macrovision content protection and region codes, it cannot handle discs encrypted by Disney X-Project and other copy protection schemes. That's why DVD Decrypter cannot rip certain DVDs.

2. DVD Decrypter only allows users to convert DVD to VIDEO_TS (VOB/IFO/BUP) and ISO file. However, many people also need some common file formats, such as MP4, AVI, MOV, and WMV. This way they can play the content of the DVD on mobiles or other devices. Moreover, it saves much space.

3. Since this tool hasn't been updated for over a decade, it might be not fully compatible with the operating system that comes after 2005, such as Windows 10.
