'King Kong was easy'

Hi Guys.

I am trying to make a backup copy from my original 'KING KONG', and every time, I get an error message 'Cannot continue because of I/O error. I've tried both 'DVD Shrink' as well as 'DVD decryptor'.Both come out with similar mesage. Can anyone explain where did I go wrong.

I did this movie a while back and it was easy. DVDFab and DVDShrink. I think I/O error is input, output. In other words you've got a dodgy disc. What make disc are you burning with?

Perhaps someone else can help on this.

 

This is what to do if you are having trouble backing up your movies:

Here is the free way of making perfect backups:

1) DVDFab Decrypter - this wil break the movies encryption while ripping the movie to your HDD

2) VobBlanker - Not always needed, but it will get rid of any protection that DVDFD left behind. VobBlanker also allows you to blank,replace,cut and strip titles.

3) DVDShrink - this will allow you to compress the movie to fit onto a blank DVD-5 disc. Select your output as an ISO image

4) Imgburn - the best free burner around

Here are some guides:

The other free option:

RipIt4Me. I do not know anything about ripit4me so I will leave you with the excellent guide by arniebear. You can also download RipIt4Me from the same link.

The other way $$$$$

Anydvd works in the background to automatically remove the copy protection of a DVD movie. All you have to do is start up anydvd and continue using your normal compression engine, whether it's shrink, recode or clonedvd, It's that easy.

Before you pay for this excellent program you have a 21 day trial

What else to do to insure good quality back ups:

1) Update your dvdwriters firmware

2) Invest in good quality media Taiyo Yuden and Verbatims are best. Also look out for Maxell,Sony,Fuji, MIJ's (made in Japan) these are also extremely good blank media.

3) Burn @4x is a good place to start

 

Perfect!

 

I am using SONY disc. Will come back with results on trying methods suggested by Pazzini Senio Member.

Thanks

 

Your welcome

 

Thanks for the tips from Pazzini. With ripIt4me and fixVTS I could rip the DVD and then used DVD Shrink to resize and burn.

Thanks once again.

 

You're welcome
