I need help...When I put Hitch in DVD Shrink, it gets to 13% analized, then the screen goes black and says Data Error (cylic redundancy check). What does that mean? Is that just the DVD itself? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
==========================
Now and then a drive will just flat refuse to read a disk. I have Five different DVD Burners and, on occasion, some of them will give me that (Cyclic Redundancy) Error on a Brand New Disk straight from the factory. When that happens, I just try it in the another drives. One of the Five will normally read through that error. Sometimes, however, they ALL lock up on that same error. When that happens, I just take the disk back and exchange it for a different one. It IS a FLAW in the disk, but it will NOT show up on a normal DVD Player, only a computer DVD Drive will have trouble with it.
Clean your DVD drive read head ONCE. Try it again. If you STILL get that error, take the disk back and exchange it for a new one. Nothing you can do is going to get you past that flaw in a NEW disk. I have been down that road too many times...

As for the password could that be a region problem?
As for backing up one day after PURCHASING IT. I completely understand why people do that as I do it too. I dont play the disks ever. I only play movies from my computer hard drive to my TV. Why people use frisbees thats so 90ish. Bestbuy sells all the hardware you need for about $50 most computers come with all the hardware already. Get yourself a good jukebox program and load all your movies into your computer then scan down the menu system. The really cool things are using split screen and watch two movies at the same time. I sometimes use 10 or more split screens at the same time with aux source(computer(s)) and cable TV signals. Its alot of cables and wifi gear but its well worth it if you love your TV. I love to freakout the pizza delivery guy with all the signals on my TV screen. He actually asked me if I was testing missiles in my backyard as it looks like NASA control screens.

DVD Shrink can not decrypt the newest movies. This cyclic redundancy check error message basically means it's encountered something it can't read (some protection schemes). So, if the disc doesn't have any obvious scratches, it's most likely a protection scheme. That's where DVD Decryptor comes in. Use DVD Decryptor to remove the protection scheme(s), then run it through DVDShrink to compress, then burn using your favourite burning software.

I need some insight on this situation I have had. I recently installed a BenQ 1620 DVDRW. Used DVD Decryptor to rip Hitch without any problems. Then used DVD Shrink to make disc image (ISO) without any problems either. Now, I burned the image several times to 3 different brands of discs, and even tried 3 different burning programs. All burns were "successful", but were unreadable by dvd player and even unrecognizable by the computer. Initially, I thought it was a bad ripping job, but the image file was viewable. After ripping the movie once again, I encountered the same problem(s)... even tried copying a backup of the movie (successfully made by a friend) without success. Luckily, I still had my other DVDRW drive laying nearby (LG 4160), which i put back in my tower. First try with the LG drive, badda bing!! I tried burning a different disc image with BenQ drive, worked fine. Just can't burn an image of Hitch with BenQ.
Has anyone with a BenQ drive been able to make a successful backup of this movie (Hitch) ??

I am sooooooooooooooo confused. I can burn the ISO Hitch file in DVD Decrypter, but I am at a loss how to get it from there to DVD Shrink. Because DVD Decrypter says my file is to big for my DVD+R. Any suggestions???
Thanks,
A clueles newbie :-)

@kelli3222 - as long as you are using Verbatim Datalifeplus you are using top quality already. The +R or -R format should be explained somewhere in the last 2 links i gave you.
You can download dvdinfopro (free), run it and do a media info check (2nd icon from top left in dvdinfopro) and paste your details here, then hopefully we can verify which Verbatim you have (as older ones were made by crappy manufacturers)
Verbatim datalifeplus are my personal favourite and you'll see that as you've also posted this question to the first link in my signature. Skim thru the over-technical bits! in there, and you should get a gist why top quality such as Verbatim datalifeplus, TY (Taiyo Yuden, but watch out for fakes, they're everywhere) and other top brands are what you should stick with. It costs no more to buy quality over no-name or inferior discs. And on that note pls look at second link in my sig

There is something weird with the movie Hitch. I first tried to just use DVD Shrink with the movie but it froze at 13% analysis. I have talked to two other people that this has happened to. Then I went and used DVD Decryptor first, then went to shrink, and then burned using Nero 6. BUT, it won't play the movie. I finally got it to show a couple of clips but it's ridiculously choppy. Any suggestions would be awesome, and I'll continue to post when I make progress...

@jbgswoosh - have a look thru the 3rd link in my signature. could be due to too high a burn speed, crap media, muiltitasking during the burn, incorrect target size in DVD Srink due to burning too close to edge of disc, out of date firmware for your burner etc etc etc; could be a combination of things - look in the link and you should find enough to either get sorted, or if none of that works, it should help you provide more detail here for us to go on

DVDFab Express is simply the easiest way to copy a DVD movie. Just insert the movie and a blank DVD then press Start. Your entire movie - including menus, trailers and special features - is copied to a single DVD with just one click, and everything happens automatically.
DVDFab Decrypter is a simple version of DVDFab Express. It copies entire DVD movie to hard disk, and removes all the protections (CSS, RC, RCE, Macrovision, UOPs and Sony ARccOS) while copying.
We all know DVD Decrypter is a great DVD ripper, why we need another one? Well, the reason is DVD Decrypter's development has stopped, so it will not support newer version of Sony ARccOS protection automatically. Fortunately, DVDFab Decrypter is always updated to support latest protection, so you can backup your DVD movies to hard disk as before. For example, Movie 'Closer' cannot be copied by DVD Decrypter automatically, but with the help of DVDFab Decrypter, you can copy it without problem.

Hi creaky,
DVD Decrypter cannot copy Closer automatically, except you find and download a .PSL file to tell DVD Decrypter how to bypass the bad sectors.

Slightly off topic but where is BBmayo? He is always here at some point with some helpful advice. As for Hitch the answers lies below inside my post.

I was reading through the replies to this topic and was a bit taken back by some of the advice. First, I can't understand why anyone would use ISO mode for anything what so ever. It make no sense to convert from File Mode (which the disks are formatted in) to ISO mode. That conversion is just asking for trouble. If you just stick with the defaults (File Mode) in Decrypter and Shrink, you will have No Problems with either of the programs.
Second, I have never found a New Movie Disk that DVD Decrypter could not copy to my Hard Drive properly. I have, however, found a few disks that my DRIVES could not read all the way through. Normally, at least One of my Five Drives will read even a disk with bad factory flaws, but sometimes none of them will. The fault has NEVER been DVD Decrypter. Given a good disk, it will ALWAYS read the material and break the protection. It has never, EVER failed to do that in the two years I have been backing up DVD's. with that program, and I have well over 400 titles in my collection. I use it "Exclusively" as my first step in the backup process.
The Never Fail process is as follows
1. Copy the entire disk to your Hard Drive with DVD Decrypter.
2. Select your files from the VIDEO_TS folder and then compress them using DVD Shrink
3. Burn the resulting VIDEO_TS folder to your backup disk using Nero.
Folks, It's just that simple, and it will NEVER fail to produce a working copy of your movie.
I have used factory second, bargain basement disks of the worst possible kind and STILL produced backups that played perfectly. I don't make a habit of using cheap disks, but I have used them with very good results.
People, just do NOT try to over complicate the copy process with steps that are just flat NOT NECESSARY. With the three programs, Decrypter, Shrink and Nero, the process is mindless childs play; really...

Hey. I am having problems with Hitch. I have the latest version of AnyDVD and I use DVD Shrink to get the movie only off of the DVD disc. After I do that, I go in and change the extension to .mpg so I can manage it easily. But, when I open any of the VOB files I changed to MPG in Windows Media Player, Winamp, etc. They all are in French. I can't figure out how to fix this. Anyone know? Thanks

@augman000 - i'm not surprised, you're over complicating things there. just burn the files from shrink to a blank dvd ?. and maybe you haven't shrunk the correct files

I am pretty sure I have shrunk the right files because if I open them in PowerDVD they are in English. What I wanted to do is make these files into MPG or WMV. I don't have a DVD burner. I just want to get the DVD's on my HD and share them with my friends or online. Has anyone else had this language problem?
One other question. If I change the extension to .MPG and I open it in Windows Media Player or Winamp. There is a watermark on the top right of the movie. Is there any way to convert files to MPG format without that watermark? Thanks alot. Sorry for all the questions.
