    How do I preview with menus?

    I don't have a bluray player, so most of the time I have to guess what the extras are. I can preview individual extras but they don't always have title cards that say what they are. And the Bluray menu isn't always a video track that I can play.

    In DVDFab 12 I could click on"Search Movie/TV" on the entry in the Ripper tab, and it would open a search window for matching the title and artwork with dvdfab's servers. And in that window there is a "Preview with Menus" button at the bottom. But DVDFab 13 doesn't have this button.

    So I'm just going blind now.

      I do not mean that. This button doesn't include the Bluray menus. Clicking on "Preview with Menus" allowed me to see the menu, and navigate the Bluray through the various menus available. Most Blurays have a menu screen that titles each extra video on the disc. There's also, often a menu that shows what the various audio tracks are.

      The button stopped working, recently, on DVDFab 12. So I couldn't take a screenshot using that. But here is one from the Joke Bluray. From this screenshot you can see the names of some of some of the special features, "Becoming Joker", "Joker: Vison & Fury", "Please Welcome.... Joker!". Without the preview there's no way to know what the title of each extra is since there is often no title card in the featurette that states what the title is.

          I don't understand how to get to the "Menu Settings" option. From your screenshot it looks like you are maybe in "Creator" but on that page I have to "Add Source" and I'm trying to rip a Bluray, not create one (i'm using "Ripper"). The "Add Source" options don't let me select my bluray drive. I tried dragging all sorts of folders and files from my blu-ray dirve but none of them were recognized.

            go into common settings - general settings - Meta
            make sure that the box next to (i want to use meta information) is checked.
            restart dvdfab and retry ripper again and see if the preview with menus is working.

              ignore my previous comment. however, if you still need to use dvdfab 12, you can download the last
              version here near the bottom of the page. - https://www.dvdfab.cn/download.htm version 12.1.1.5

                Sorry for the confusion. I will get the developer to implement it in DVDFab13 as soon as possible.
