hi all, i got a collection of films called the walt disney collection theres 8 volumes in all and theres about 4 or 5 films on each so as you can guess they are viewed plenty of toimes by the kids , so i thought i would try and back them up so they wouldnt get damaged , when i tried to read them with my dvd writer ir is always telling me that there is a read error so i tried all the discs and had the same problem with them all , then i borrowed a friends copy of them and still i had the same problen i have even tried using a diffrent dvd burner but no joy can any one help it would be much apreciated
You need to give us some info, What are your system specs, What burner are you using, What software have you installed, Are you multi-tasking, Is your anti-virus turned off, have you de-fragged lately, Have you run adaware, Do you have spybot, Is your firmware updated for your burner. So you see, we need a little more info before we can help!! Kind regards, pulsar
i am using a lite-on dvdrw sohw-1633s and i have tried loads of diffrent software from decryptor ,clonedvd ,nero, and a few others but nothing seems to read them, why should my anti-virus be turned off? i have de fragged lately and i run adaware often, and whats spybot?
Anti-virus has to be off as it interferes with the whole process. I hope you are not using the internet, spybot is like adaware. do a google search for it. Are you multi tasking & have you the latest firmware for your burner? Failing that have you tried your burner in another PC? Have you tried another drive to read the discs with?
With Disney movies, the problem could be the Interactual Movie Player. It is a nasty piece of software - do not install this player and if already installed remove from your system using the Add/Remove function in Control Panel. Ignore the Interactual prompt after loading DVD and open the DVD in Shrink.
