    BD Ripper (3D Plus) ISO -> MP4 using command line bug

    I have renamed all my .ISO files to names which make sense, not the DVD/BLU RAY volume name(s) included within them, which is frequently gobbledegook. When I try to rip the .ISO I want dvdfab to save the metadata title field to match my nice filename: "Susans First Birthday (1997).mp4"

    Command line for illustration:
    DVDFAB.EXE /MODE "RIPPER" /SRC "%%g" /DEST "x:%%~pg" /PROFILE "mp4.default" /VOLUME "%%~ng" /SUBTITLE "English" /DISPLAYFORCEDSUB "Yes" /CLOSE

    Unfortunately, the /VOLUME option doesn't have any effect. Once I invoke the command above, and after DVDFAB is finally done farting around with all it's onscreen ads, and it's calling home to mommy, it still saves the files metadata title field with the .ISO volume.Titlexx.mp4 label.

    So I tried to formulate a workaround:
    DVDFAB.EXE /MODE "RIPPER" /SRC "%%g" /DEST "H:\temp.MP4" /PROFILE "mp4.default" /VOLUME "%%~ng" /SUBTITLE "English" /DISPLAYFORCEDSUB "Yes" /CLOSE

    Goal here was to simply output the file to a fixed location and name, so I can use another utility such as ffmpeg to work around broken dvdfab. But when I run this command, all the usual ads pop up, and the progress bar appears for about 10 seconds. Then the program just closes. Over and over.

    The Docs for command line mode are woefully out of date, and command line mode itself is filled with so many bugs it's almost comical. Does anybody have any ideas how to get it to rip with my title metadata, not DVDFABS default something.Titlexx?

    Thanks!
