Dvd Reaper question - Authenticating a dvd drive

[Diggedy76]

I just downloaded dvd reaper, and it says that I must authenticate my drive with a dvd player. How do I do this? I'm assuming I need to do this because when I tried to rip nothing would happen. I use PowerDVD for playback and it works fine.

just put a dvd on your drive and play it
then pause the dvd launch the ripper
it's ok
