    You don't need to use Shrink on a copy it has already been compressed.

    That is the sign of a damaged disc. Clean it as much as possible (rub with a soft cloth in radial direction, not tangential).
    Try to copy the files to your hard disk by simply copy-paste under windows. If a file fails, turn of your PC and let the drive cool down for a while and try that file again. You may be lucky after a couple of trials.

    Yes Read errors are useing from either Scratches on the Disk or actual write errors when Burning the Disk in the Case of Recordable DVD Media....I used to get that Problem when Trying to Copy a DVD that was Burned to Crappy Media or Burned too fast on Crappy Media....

    There is an Option in DVD Decryptor that says "Ignore Read Errors" maybe try enableing that setting and see if it helps with Ripping this Disk.....

    You could also just Try Copying the Files off of the DVD without useing a Ripping Program...There are also Programs for Getting Data off of Dammaged DVD/CD"s Like "DVD X Rescue' and "Bad Copy Pro" which might be worth a Try.....

    Good Luck

    i am having a similar problem. i am using different sofware though. here is whats happening.

    1. i take an orginal dvd and simply copy and paste the whole thing to my hard drive

    2.i use clovedvd with anydvd to remove protections and to compress a dual layer to fit on a single layer disk. i dont not immediately burn the disk. i save the compressed dvd to another folder on my hdd.

    3. burn the compressed dvd to disk using clovedvd and nero.

    Both burning programs have given my copies that have crc. I am using brand new PRINCO brand dvd-r and a sony dru700a dual layer burner.
    the movies i have burned are watchable. sometimes the crc error is reflected in the "extra" material and not the movie.
    I have checked the compressed dvd files on my hdd with CDCHECK and found no errors. I have even defragged my hdd.
    Anyone know what the prob is? I am making coasters like crazy!!

    Well Princo aren"t the best Media so I would Try burning your DVD"s at 2x speed and see if that Helps your Burning so you don"t get any Burn errors....

    Cheers

    Hi! I'm new at this DVD burning but I figured alot of things out just by trial and error. One, shut off your antivirus and spy programs. Don't have your screen saver on and use a brand name DVD. I've used the TDK's , Sony and Fuji. I like Fuji best. They all work fine. Also use a disk cleaner once in a while to clean out dust inside the burner and reader drives. And don't bump the computer while it's working!!! Other then these things, I have had no problems with any of the programs. Good Luck

    Sounds like media issues. At AD most look to Taiyo Yuden's, Verbatims, Maxell. Some use Fuji (made in Japan) and Sony's. It is easy to see why, especially down the road when you want to watch a movie and it won't play. Also, burn slow 4x or slower. Stay away from bad media (princo, cmc, memorex). Just wanting to help. supermediastore.com has great sales, but not too great as to avoid fake Ty's. Best Buy usually has Verbs. on sale. Try new media, burn slow and see the outcome.

    I'm glad I found this thread. I am also having the same problem. Have tried various combinations of DVD Decrypter, AnyDVD, DVD Shrink, CloneDVD, and four different burners. "Cyclic redundancy error" is the nemesis. Coying the files to a folder first does not help. An interesting point is that this seems to occur almost exclusively where the original movie was OLD, i.e. this was a digital transfer from some earlier medium. The copies I've made from the originals all play just fine: it's only when I try to copy my copy that the process fails. This is VERY frustrating! Help?

    @shneur, can you share with the group here at ad what type of media? Brand name? Burn speed? I have been able without a problem make back-ups of my backups because I use good media, even with the first burns in the beginning using cheap media I quickly switched and made a back-up on Ty's, verbs, Sony's, FuJi's, and Maxell's (all made in Japan, actually the Sony's and FuJi's code as TY's. Knowing this information can help us to help you. Thanks.

    Well, ya got me pardner -- (hands clasped over heart) Aaargh!! (bites dust). I'm using cheap-o's from Shop4Tech. What I don't understand is, if the information is all there coherently enough to play perfectly both on computer and stand-alone, how the goldarn heck (see how polite?) can it then NOT be there sufficiently to copy? The difference between 29ยข and $1.00++ is really significant. Maybe I should just make three copies of everything ab initio as a matter of principle...

    @shneur, partner I'm just sharing what many here at AD have learned, and some like myself, the hard way. Actually I pay bewteen .27 to .30 cents for great media (Taiyo Yuden 01's 4x and 02's 8x; Verbatims, FuJi's and Sony's that code as TY's look for the made in Japan, and I also use Maxell which code as MCC, not Cmc.). I shop from supermediastore online or when Best Buy has it's FuJi's on sale and then combine that with Rewards bucks...I just found the FuJi's at Best Buy 50 for $17.00 so I picked up 200. Used my $40.00 in rewards and you get the picture. Our Staples will carry the Sony's made in Japan on sale and then the Office Depot carries the Maxell. I have recently went back to re-burn my movies on the cheap media using decrypter in Iso Read and then Iso Write...quick and perfect. Many times the cheap media might play fine for a while but then after a year it begins to pixilate, freeze and skip to the point that it is not viewable. I just believe in making the investment up front for security and consistency. Don't beat yourself up, just keep your eyes open becuase the team at AD pass on when there is a good sale. I like supermediastore because it is genuine Ty's.

    Thanks. The idea that my media might degrade after a year or so is the deciding factor. As we say in NY, "Ya gotta do whacha gotta do." I've invested too much time & effort in this collection to find out later it's rotting. Another lesson learned...
