I want to rip my dvd collection to put on a server for my tv. I started this with trying 4 dvds using Handbrake. The first 3 ripped perfectly fine according to the directions I used from LifeHacker (http://lifehacker.com/5773000/how-to-rip-dvds-with-handbrake). The 4th dvd took about 2 secs to rip and then stopped saying it was complete. It was not.

Now with the 3 files I have I tried to open and play with VLC and Miro. Neither one would play the file. It says its open but there is no sound or video and it doesn't actually show the movie playing in the progress bar. I ran it from the terminal and this is the error message I get.

[0xb04c2f38] mp4 demux error: MP4 plugin discarded (no moov,foov,moof box)
[mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 0xa032980] moov atom not found
[mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 0xb0efd500] moov atom not found
[0xb04c2f38] avformat demux error: Could not open ????e/boris/Videos/Movies/Taras Bulba 1962.m4v: Unknown error 1094995529

I have also changed a file name to end .mp4 instead of .m4v which is how I originally ripped them.
