Thank you, GOATD Staff, for giving us the opportunity to acquire a great piece of software at no charge to us. As I know, Wondershare offer a powerful software named Video Converter Platinum two weeks ago at Giveawayoftheday, and the software receive near 80% positive user rate.

I use many Wondershare products, including this DVD Ripper, I’d like to share my reviews with you:

The Good:
* Easy to use, friendly UI, just a few clinks to finish the conversion and don’t need any learn curve.
* Very fast speed, compared other DVD ripper, the conversion speed is much faster.
* Great output quality, near lossless quality compared with the original DVD.
* Widely support many digital devices such as iPod, iPhone, Zune, PSP, Creative Zen, PS3, Xbox 360, Archos, Walkman and other portable players.
* Can rip any DVD (include protected DVD), ISO, IFO files to all popular video or audio formats.
* Can rip DVD to High definition video formats such as HD ASF, HD AVI, HD MP4, HD MOV, HD WMV, HD MPG, HD VOB etc.
* Powerful video editing – allow trip, crop video, add personalize watermark, adjust video effect, chose subtitle and language.
* Two preview Windows, can compare with original effect to get best video effect.


The Bad:
* This DVD Ripper can’t auto upgrade at giveaway version.
* Can’t convert video, it only rip DVD to video. It seems that if you want to convert video, you need another software called Wondershare Video Converter, one of giveaway software two weeks ago.

Suggestion:
Hope the publisher develops an ultimate product, which can rip DVD, convert video, burn video to DVD, copy DVD, remove DRM for protected music and movies etc.

Why do some of the first comments seem like they copied them from what has already been said by Wondershare? Having more than one Wondershare program I trust them enough to know this isn't junk or over hyped, and if anything it's under rated as to its capabilities.
Thanks Wondershare and GOTD for a GREAT offer, I know I'll be happy using it.

PS. Let's keep the "I can get this other program that does the same for free" comments to a minimum unless they are truly equal or better ok?

Wondershare's DVD Ripper Platinum takes up about 33 MB of space on your hard drive with 140 files in 16 folders. Nothing was added to the Windows or System32 folders using XP Pro SP3 32, with only shortcuts & an output folder (in My Documents) added to the Documents and Settings folder. Activate.exe needs to write to the Windows' Registry, so some (probably in Vista) may need to run it as Administrator. I ran Activate 1st, before setup.exe, & the program started right up without any registration dialog.

DVD Ripper Platinum seems to be a pseudo-ripper, relying on video playback snapshots rather than stripping out the DVD mpg2 video, which isn't really a big deal if your video's headed for a handheld player, like a Zen or your cell phone. Encoding to some formats is quicker than others, regardless the software you use. You might want to try the recent GOTD Winx DVD Copy or DVDFab to get the DVD on your hard drive 1st, since DVD Ripper Platinum stalled for me trying it out directly on a DVD... there's sometimes more to DRM than the CSS listed on their web site. There are a lot of formats offered in the program's profiles, but Zune AVC was missing, & you probably won't want to use the DVD formats included, using one of those copy apps mentioned instead so you can keep the original video. As reported there was no Trim tab (as in the help file) after clicking edit... you can however select individual chapters in the main window which is almost as good. I don't know if this is a limitation of their GOTD version, intended or not.

I am trying to rip DVD to H.254 with highest possible quality (Common Video->H.264)

Problems so far:
1) Video: Original resolution was 720 x 480, but Wondershare silently did set 640x480 for the output file (I wonder if program should be smart enough to keep original resolution)
2) Audio: Original sound is 5.1 and output there is NO WAY Wondershare can keep it as 5.1 - you'll have a great choice between 1 channel (mono) and 2 channels (stereo)

I don't think it could be called "rip DVD movies with no loss of image & sound quality."
