I got 164 jpg files that look very corrupted. A few of them had

The aspect change is kind of expected, DVDs are stored with rectangular
pixels.
I don't follow the logic of this. I'm not sure we are talking about the
same thing. The DVD has both full screen and wide screen versions. One
side is full screen. The side I'm trying to rip is wide screen. Totem
plays it just fine, but as far as I know, totem cannot dump the frames
to individual jpg files. Mplayer dumped them, but corrupted them, and
changed them to something resembling full screen mode.
It almost sounds like what one would get if the DVD decryption wasn't
working right.
Can 'mplayer' show you the movie?
Like I said before, whether I tell mplayer to dump each frame to
individual jpg files, or just show me the movie (actually only tested
the 7 second advert for 20th Century Fox at the beginning), either way
it shows a very corrupted image. Also like I said before, I'd be happy
to send a frame or two so you can see it for yourself. The average size
of the jpg files is about 100K. Only 20 to 30 of the jpg files (of the
164) clearly show enuf of the 20th Century Fox advert. But even those
clearly show the ~corruption~ of which I speak.
