Hi: I cannot backup the above title THE SECOND CHANCE. Its a Sony Pictures Home Entertainment dvd 2006. I use Shrink (v.3.2), or dvdclone2 with ANYDVD (v.6.0.8.2). First, my plextor 708a drive takes at least 5 min. for the activity light to stay solid green. When using either shrink or dvdclone2 I get the same error: "copy protection error - the read failed because the sector is encrypted". I thought something was wrong with my drive because I tried backing up the movie lovely and amazing and it also took a while for my drive light to get to green. But then I put in the pink panther and it came right up and shrink worked perfectly. I also noticed that the second chance dvd has 2 files which I have never noticed before on other dvds. they are DVD-ROM.exe and go.exe with symbols next to them...any help will be much appreciated. regards...
hi: OK this is weird. I ran the plextor diags and the drive is GOOD. So I scratched my head and said what did I install recently that possibly could be causing this? I recently bgt a Civic which has a PC Card slot in it. You can store your mp3's on a compactflash or SD chip. I recently bgt a sandisk 2gb chip and installed their software for their reader/writer. Its called IMAGEMATE and its used with your usb 2.0 port. It makes the reader act as a removable drive and assigns it a letter (mine is J drive). Then you just drop and drag your music files using windows explorer. So I uninstalled that software and everything is back to normal. In addition the reader works w/o it...go figure...5 hrs wasted, but problem solved. Regards...
