Okay, so DVDfab has always worked for me in regards to BD's, but it's now discontinued (as you may know) and so that means no more updates.

I have now run into trouble with the Region B BFI Blu-Ray release of Werner Hertzog's NOSFERATU. For those who don't know, it's getting raves. Anyway...

It seemed to rip/copy okay (I did a 1:1 copy of the BD50) but I now have two coasters after burning using IMGBURN. That has never happened to me before. For extra clarification... I did not create an ISO. I created a folder structure, since that always seems 100% reliable.

I have no actual Region B Blu-Ray player so I cannot verify if the actual BFI disc is bad. After years of importing BD's I have never had a bad disc. Not yet, anyway.

What can I use to make a 1:1 copy? Is there anything outside of DVDfab? Things are ever changing so I figured somebody here would know. 

For those anti-piracy people please remember that I am simply buying superior versions of these films vs. the shitty USA releases. Shout Factory destroyed Nosferatu with DNR so they can kiss my ass. These are my own personal titles I bought that I copy to Region A. [u]I retain the Region B originals[/u]. I especially love the steelbook versions (like with LIFEFORCE and other Arrow releases).
