Sparda Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I assume that actually is Vista your using. Can you rip any DVDs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brennan Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 No it is not vista it is a transformation pack to make it look like vista but at its core it is still XP and yes I can rip other dvds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparda Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 so you have no clue?? not related to your inability to rip this specific DVD, but I can advise you need to remove what ever made windows xp pretend to be Vista ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I'd say one of these: Scratched DVD Badly burned/pressed DVD Faulty drive Some type of copy protection (not very likely if it's a video DVD) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brennan Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 Is there any suggestions on how I can fix this issue or maybe another program I can try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 It's unlikely it will make a difference what program you try. Try ripping the disc on another machine and if you get errors the disc is broken. If you don't then your PC is broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garda Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 yea, it's a scratched DVD, so you're getting checksum errors when the scratched part of the disk is being read. Pretty common i've found, DVDs, particularly pressed DVDs, really suck what i tend to do when i get this kind of problem is to go to DVD decrypter and to put it in file mode (which i think is the default). This will let you extract files individually. Extract all of the files that you can, some will not work. Note these down. Then wipe the surface of the disk as many times as you can. Wash it, shine it, do anything at all that you can to remove any scratches that you can Go back to DVD decrypter, this time you only need to try the files that didn't work cos you've already extracted the ones that did work. Hopefully you will have gotten all of the remaining files and you can then go off and use dvd shrink. Otherwise you can keep trying for those remaining files until you turn blue. Usually if the disk is sufficiently stuffed there's nothing that you can really do about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digip Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I am having a problem ripping a DVD. In DVD Shrink I get this error during Analysing: And I get this error from DVD Decrypter: If it is really damaged, use "DVDDecrypter". It has a built in feature to pad the bad data and work around it. I usually rip them as an ISO under DVDdecrypter if they are bad discs, and then use DVDShrink to make it burnable to smaller dvd's. This way you can fix DVDs that stop working in your home dvd player without having to buy a new one to replace it. (Could even be a dirty disc, because I get this sometimes on my desktop pc, but then it gets by it on my laptop for no reason. Try a cd or dvd cleaner first.)

Yeah I usually use DVD Shrink and if that don't work I then use DVD Decrypter. The disk had a few scratches but I thought they where minor. but I am going to get the skip Doctor later today to fix the scratches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
