BD Ripper (3D Plus) no. of frames gradually decreased during ripping

[coolala]

I have seen this a few times on different movies. Here is an example, after DVDFab ripper started ripping a BD movie, the no. of frames it processes shown on screen would decrease from 60 to 50 to 40 until 0 and only time was shown, no frame was being processed. Finally I had to cancel it. Sometimes it happens at the beginning of movie, sometimes at around 2% or so. Below is a sample of log for your troubleshooting. For problem isolation analysis, I had the exacct same source ripped by other Bluray ripper software (not DVDFab ripper) and it's ripped just fine so I knew the source was good.

Looking further I found that the main movie was a single m2ts file under stream folder, so instead of using ripper, I tested it with converter of the m2ts file and it worked. fab converter successfully converted the movie into .mp4 file. So, it looks like it's the ripper issue or how it interpreted the structure.
