hi ya guys ive been reading for a while now, and thought id join in (well i need some help aswell) basically im having trouble with backing up dvds! im very new to this area. ive read most of the how to do guides on this site, but am still having trouble. im using a nec nd2500a burner with nero 6, dvdshrink and dvd decrypter. but when trying to back up the dvd's to my HD after 5-mins of ripping a box pops up saying there is a problem and i cant not contiue ripping. Anyone know what im doing wrong?? any info would be of a great help. Many thanks Mark p.s @ scubapete i found your'how to make dvd w/o nero using dvd shrink' guide excellent, have you any more help for a dvd burning virgin? =)
Hi, With what software are you getting this error? Just one? All of them? What is the exact error? Welcome aboard
hi mate well when i try and ripp the dvd to my harddrive, i get about 20-30% in and then get: DvD shrink Encountered an error and cannot continue. failed to read file data Error(cyclic redundancy check) also the same with dvd decrypter. any idea's?? cheers
Hi, So your getting the read error with several different films? In that case it may be a dirty laser lens . A shot of compressed air should do the trick or you can use one of those little lens cleaner discs
ok cheers Nephilim ill try that, by the way its a brand new drive and ive watch a few dvds on it with no problems. thanks for the help
