hey first off for all you guys who help us newbs out you are awesome and are very much appreciated. anyways, lately ive been having problems with my dvd rips. before ya yell at me ive tried quite a few things including dvd shrink anydvd/nero dvd decryptor dvd fab clone dvd FYI im getting a cyclic redundency error with dvd shrink, even when i have ANYDVD running (guess its not really ANY dvd) if it matters the problem DVD's are XMEN 3 and Monk Season 2 any help is much appreciated i was hoping along with programs that may work someone could help explain to me WHY its erroring, thanks a lot!
This error is usually due to... Copy Protection it can not decrypt off the DVD -- (Get an up to date ripper DVDFab Decrypter/RipIT4ME/AnyDVD) Scratched DVD -- (Try to repair it with a repair kit) Dirty/Smugged DVD -- (Clean the DVD) defective DVD (Bad Press) -- (Exchange it for a non-defective 1) Heres a few guides for you to try out... http://my.afterdawn.com/alkohol/all_blog_entries.cfm?month=10&year=2006 http://my.afterdawn.com/alkohol/all_blog_entries.cfm?month=02&year=2006 http://my.afterdawn.com/alkohol/all_blog_entries.cfm?month=01&year=2006
ok, my programs including dvd fav are all up to date the dvd is not defective or scratched it is not smudged, i cleaned it off. now in regards to those guides, two of them start off using DVD fab decryptor, which is not working for my dvd (monk season 2 disc 1) i tried the third, using PGCedit with the plugin, and that gave me the messages "cannot find any protected title in this DVD! if you see this window, the DVD is probaly not protected by ARccOS. You have just an ordinatry I/O error. Try to clean the disc or replace it"
EDIT one last note, i tried using the only other Ripper i'd heard of, RipIt4Me, which errored telling me couldnt read sector 16 while parsing file system
How do you know if the DVD is not defective? Try to exchange it for a new 1. 1 of those guides should work for you if you have all programs installed correctly and follow the guide syep by step.
You can't tell if a disc is defective (bad pressing), by looking at it. X Men 3 was not a problem to do. I did it using Shrink w/Nero, and AnyDVD running in the background. Don't know about Monk, but shouldn't be a problem. The [bold]only[/bold] dvds out there, that can't be copied right now, are the new HD DVD and Blu-ray movies. Give it time, and you'll be able to do them too. Check here: http://forum.rpc1.org/portal.php to see if there's an update for your firmware. Rom drive and burner, if you have both. If discs are too old to exchange, maybe a friend has the same movie? You can try his/hers. Good luck!
all right well thanks guys. o and just to clarify i meant i watched the whole DVD so i didnt think it was defective
You can watch a movie that seems to not be defective but when you try to rip the DVD it can have problems if it is defective. It might not show up on playback but can when trying to rip and backup.
