When I attempt to rip this video, it gets to 50% and then gives me a Read Error Ignore/Abort message. I have never seen this with AnyDVD before and the video plays fine in my DVD player. Is this a known limitation? (It's from Paramount if that means anything.) TIA, ---JC
You mean CloneDVD2 is giving you this message, right? ... not AnyDVD. Your problem is that your original DVD has scratches or flaws. Whisperer
No, I really do mean -AnyDVD 5.9... I figured it might be some as yet unworked out encryption---DVD XCopy used to give a similar message on perfectly find DVDs when it encountered a new encryption method. But I have -never- had that issue with AnyDVD. Are there any options I can try in the Settings page that might help (like the use CSS archive checkbox for instance.)? THANKS! ---JC
Either way as Whisperer states it is probably a dirty, smudged, scratched or imperfect disk. Try cleaning or take it back and get another.
Suntower, I take it you mean you are ripping with AnyDVD's new Ripper feature. Didn't know that. You abbreviated the version of AnyDVD that you are using ... what is the exact version number? This is important because the last two version updates (April 4th) represent a major overhaul. Be sure you have "Safe Mode" selected in AnyDVD's settings. And set your ripping drive for "Slow & Easy" in AnyDVD's settings. But it still sounds like surface flaws to me. Or (long shot) a manufacturing defect. You didn't comment back about the condition of the disk surface. Tip it under a fluorescent light which will show flaws better than tungston lightbulbs or daylight. You could try ripping it in another drive ... your burner for instance. If that doesn't work, you have to resurface the original disk. Suggest Digital Innovations "AutoMax" Disk Resurfacing/Repair Kit. Whisperer
or try Intervideo DVDCopy 4 it reads scratched dvds you will still need to run anydvd behind the program though, its an older movie so iam sure its NOT an encryption problem http://www.intervideo.com/jsp/InterVideoDVDCopy_Profile.jsp
Tried the SAFE setting and the Slow/SAFE mode. No dice. The exact error message is: Read Error! Ignore read errors? ...Version 5.9.5.3 ---JC
If you can't return the original, you have to resurface it. Read this, then follow the sub-links in each post: http://club.cdfreaks.com/showpost.php?s=bc8f8b9ea9c12a43d7fcb16c06311df7&p=1284334&postcount=36 Best regards, whisperer
