Wall*E copy protection · Nov 19, 10:18 PM
I hardly every watch DVDs directly anymore. I almost always rip them to my media center and watch them from there. Yesterday I got Wall*E in the mail. They have an interesting bit of copy protection on it. They have 70 different versions of the movie on the DVD with the chapters scrambled.
Even through I had not seen the movie yet I was able to narrow it down to two versions after about 15 min using the video preview feature in HandBrake. I set HandBrake to rip both and found that #30 was the correct one on my DVD set.
This evening I got around to watching it. It was pretty good. It may be my least favorite Pixar film to day but with that said a bad Pixar film is better that 80% of what else is out there.
