    The title is fairly explanatory, kids DVD player is a wreck and now has a tablet so want to get the DVDs over to the tablet.

    I've tried Handbrake but that doesn't see all the titles so can't get the full video in some cases.

    DVD Shrink is flagged as malicious by windows and if ignored tries to install a pile of crap all over the place.

    Clone DVD can see the chapters Handbrake doesn't but flags them as encrypted so doesn't try copy.

    DVD Fab, not having much luck with the trail version either, even though it says it decrypts, it's telling me the DVD is encrypted and stops.

    At this rate it's easier to go try find illegal copies of the DVDs out there.

    Cheers all, I eventually got DVD Shrink to work, DVD Fab had to also be running in the background but the converted file was unwatchable, all blocky and stuff.

    So tried DVD fab again, needed to make a copy on to the laptop and then convert in a separate process, only issue with the trial version is that there's a watermark displayed, I'd normally buy the retail to get rid of it but I've only a finite amount of DVDs to convert and will probably never buy another again.

    DVDFab Decrypter should decrypt the DVD and copy the DVDs contents onto your hard disk (make sure to keep DVDFab Decrypter updated). You can then use whatever else, handbrake etc. to convert the DVD Folder on your hard disk for your tablet

    I didn't try any Disney ones yet. It took me ages to get her favourite one into a viewable digital format so it got late and I got fed up.
