    Hi, I'm new in dvd ripping and have 3 questions:

    1.- I have a Pioneer DVR-107D, I use verbatim DVD-R 4x media and Toast 6.0.7. Once the dvd is burned I start the disc verification process and is very common that a message appears saying that there are some sectors that aren't equal in the original and the verification process stops. Why these errors are produced, how can I avoid these kind of errors. Give any advice please.

    2.- I only interested in ripping the movie and one language, not extras and so on. I use dvdbackup and dvd2oneX. I rip the whole disk with dvdbackup and then I use the film option in the dvd2oneX to select the movie and the language. If the original movie is not large than 4,4gb the dvd2oneX compress it or not. In other words is there any method when a movie is 1hour 30min (so i think it fits in a dvd without compression) to put it with out compression and have better quality?

    Thaks a lot and sorry for my english :)

    1- Use only high quality media. I like Ridata and Traxdata discs by Ritek. Some Verbatims are made by CMC which is one of the worst media manufacturers.

    Use DVD Media Inspector to find out the manufacturer (http://homepage.mac.com/raktajino/dvdmediainspector/dvdmediainspector-1.0b1.dmg)


    Also depending on how powerful your system is, doing other things while burning may cause problems.


    2- Set the output size in DVD2OneX to 9999MB and it will remove whatever you do not want without doing any compression.
