Run MacTheRipper, and insert the source DVD disc. MacTheRipper can automatically detect the info of the inserted DVD disc. See the figure below:

 

There are two major setting parts: Disc and Mode

 

1. 1. RCE Region settings:

   
   UOPS:allow you to skip or fast-forward through most DVD content, such as warning screens, previews etc.  

 

2. RCE Region:  
   If MacTheRipper displays "DISC RCE: CLEAR" after scanning the DVD, you can leave the option to OFF status.
   If MacTheRipper displays "DISC RCE: -DETECTED-", you must set the option to the region in which the DVD was purchased. For example, if you have a DVD that was purchased in N. America (Region 1), and MacTheRipper says that RCE is detected, you must set the 'RCE Region' popup menu to 'RCE 1"
   
   De-Macrovision:allow you to record your DVDs straight to VCR, or connect the DVD player through a VCR without getting a bunch of wavy lines. This is enabled by default.
   
   2.In Mode settings:
   Select the Full Disc Extraction Mode to reserve all the info in the inserted DVD disc.
   Note: If the coped DVD folder only contains one folder: VIDEO_TS, in order to play the final DVD disc, you should create an empty folder and name it AUDIO_TS in the DVD folder.
