sytem hangs a lot when ripping DVDs
I'm not really sure why, but my system hangs, runs slow, and is unresponsive when I'm ripping DVDs on mint. I have plenty of space on my drive and 2 gigs of ram so I don't think thats the issue--especially since it doesn't happen on my XP partition. Any ideas on how I could speed things up or what the problem could be?

Re: sytem hangs a lot when ripping DVDs
what software do you use? The best so far is k9copy. If you have problem with other software, try k9copy first.

I use ripit4me, dvdfab and vobcopy. Vobcopy (a linux program) makes stuff run slow just like the windows programs so I don't think its an issue with wine. I'll check K9copy out again, but doesn't it only allow you to rip 1 audio and 1 sub scripture stream?

Ok, running K9copy right now and it's making things just as sluggish as the other programs mentioned above. Any other ideas?

Re: sytem hangs a lot when ripping DVDs
It sounds like something wrong with your Linux. k9copy runs very fast on my laptop. backup a DVD would take me about 40min and that's with 20 - 30% CPU usage (couldn't remember memory usage, but it is pretty low). I have 4G RAM and a mid-low performance CPU (Core2 Duo T5870) in today's market term.
Only couple of things I could think of.
1. Do you have any issue playing DVD on your computer? I read sometimes DMA mode is not enabled for your dvd drive, and playback (or anything else) will be very slow. I trust you can google this.
2. have you monitored your system resource usage?
