Re: lsdvd/tcprobe fails?

I replaced the AnyEvent.pm module as you suggested
(I saved the old one).
I tried dvd::rip with and without /usr/bin/lsdvd.
It hung both times.

This really leaves me no other way to rip DVD's except
with using windows and DVD-Shrink. However, dvdshrink
refused to rip most dvd's. It belches out
"permission denied", even though I am logged as Administrator.
Must be using MS's drm dll's.
