I understand there's no point for you to lie. But in all honesty I hunt for these casino rip. Well of course my first preference is to find watermark-free SD or HD rips (sadly in recent months the frames are not provided or the frames that's provided cannot prove one way or another), second preference is ISO (a far from ideal way to get watermark free rips, due to spending time re-encoding), but since the combined hit rate of these two options is well below 50%, I have to settle for watermarked rips. In that case, I find the casino rip to have a high hit rate (finding the vid I want) and very easy to deal with. I just fire up my video editor, it takes literally 2 minute to configure the editor, start the job, and before I even get a coffee brewed up or go for a toilet break, the new vid is done, minus the casino at the start and any trailers or DMM ads at the end. I am lucky enough that I have NEVER run into a single casino rip that doesn't work well. Once or twice I cut a quarter or even a third of the length of the vid simply trimming off the huge number of trailers at the end. Have never seen the playback speed, freezing, resolution problems etc etc, not once. If the torrent is good (completing the download), the rip is good (playback), that's my experience.
The last resort for me is the yellow text rip. Sometimes, they even come in the Chinese subtitled and double watermark variety: basically a Taiwan company translated the vid and put subtitle on the vid (traditional characters), add a scrolling watermark or three (luckily lasting no more than 10 seconds each time) and then these yellow rippers add the yellow text (simplified characters). I am most unhappy with the massive damage to the video, but OTOH the high quality translation (I can read Chinese) does add a lot of enjoyment, sometimes. Similar to the casino rip, I have very little problem with these rips, I wouldn't say NEVER for the yellow rips, they have been around since forever.
