DVD43 v3.7.0 (freeware)

DVD43 v3.7.0

DVD43 is a small tool that integrates into Windows and overrides copy-protection mechanisms found on DVD-Video discs (namely, CSS) and DVD region limitations (in case you have RPC-2 DVD drive). Integrates nicely with CloneDVD, DVD2One, WinDVD, PowerDVD, etc.

This software is no longer available, this page is stored for archival puposes only.

On 1st of January, 2006, a new copyright legislation came into force in Finland that made it illegal to distribute tools that allow circumvention of technical copy protections. The legislation was approved by Finnish parliament and was based on European Union Copyright Directive, a law that each EU member state has to implement to their national legislations.

As AfterDawn Ltd is a company located in Finland, we have to obey the new copyright legislation and therefor, the software you were searching for, is no longer available. For more details on options we tried to find, how the law changed our site and more, please read this article.

Please, do not contact us asking where to find the tool you were looking for.

So, it seems to work ok at times but not others. I am having a lot of problems getting an error message that the DVD is encoded. This message isn't at the beginning of the DVD rip, rather sometime in the middle of the process. ANy ideas?

I've used this software for several years and haven't really found anything better that I know of. Does have problems decoding anything with Sony though. Next update needs to have Sony decoding!!!

Pretty good software... Couldn't crack War of the Worlds, Madagascar, or The Skeleton Key... neither could anyDVD...

GOOD LUCK WITH MOST LATE ISSUE DVD'S, BUT, HIT A WALL WITH DISNEY "VALIANT". SO DID "DVDFAB29", THEY RUN FOR 18 SECONDS WITH 321 STUDIOS XCOPY, OR XCOPY EXPRESS; THEN LOCKS UP COMPLETELY. BURNED "40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN", "THE ISLAND", "MR.MRS.SMITH" WITHOUT ANY HICCUPS AT ALL. USELESS ON "VALIANT". DISNEY SEEMS TO BE THE TOUGHEST BURN OF THEM ALL, SONY NEEDS OCCASIONAL CAJOLING.

I have been trying everything to copy dvds with copy protection. I am using sonic - Is it the sonic ? I have tried all ways and have successfully removed the protection , but then either the copies dont play or the sonis does not recognize the file. Asking to insert a DVD9 (whats that) I just downloaded anydvd again and now I am trying it with dvdclone...I will let you know the results.I am no wiz at computers or how they work ....but once I figure out the tools and program...I'm good to go. Also is there a way to get it for free after the trial period or do you have any suggestions. I like to leave my laptop pretty clean, so I keep downloading and trying things, but once they do not work, I uninstall them and delete them, Is that the right thing to do, so I don't waste space? any help will do. Thanks Everyone

hot9dog 31 Aug 2005 20:26 DVD43 v3.62
It allowed me to copy an Encrypted DVD that I wasn't able to before, but wow, it sure slowed by burning software DVD shrink and DVD-X-Copy Platinum down.

DVD43 together with 1 Click DVD Copy 4.1.1.8 are all you need. All good!

Pretty good software; there are a few newer DVD's that it will not circumvent. With that being said it is quite good for freeware.

Never had problems with earlier versions but v3.5.3 seems to have a nasty conflict with Nero Ultra Edition v6.6.0.13. When attempting to burn, DVD43LLH.SYS returns a BSOD. Nero runs fine as long as this new version of DVD43 is not installed.
matt1936 09 May 2005 14:45 DVD43 v3.5.3 (Free)
Careful. Problems in updating to version 3.5.3 exists. Version downloads however error message crops up stating the updated version is not compatible with Win9x. If you try to reinstall previous version after deleting the updated version, you can't. The download defaults to version 3.5.3 and you don't have access to the program at all.

Program works great in conjunction with DVD Shrink MOST Movies.. If you're having a Problem with it and DVD SHRINK I Suggest using DVD43 running and DVD Decrypter in File mode to rip the DVD to your HD then us DVD SHRINK... Example SPANGLISH

It works very well, so far. It appears to act in similar fashion to DVD Region & CSS Free. I've used it in combination with DVDShrink 3.2. (DVDShrink doesn't seem to need it so far for CSS on R1 discs, but it wouldn't open a R2 disc without DVD43 running.) It seems to work with Nero Recode quite nicely, as well. It would be nice if it had some configurable options, though.
