I hope I am posting in the right subject here goes. When I run dvd-shrink the dvd drive just stops during analysing and if I get past that it will stop about 75% or more during the encoding. It used to work just fine been using it for over a year. I've tried different discs and tried using dvd decripter as well and the same thing happens just stops about 3/4 of the way done. I have a DVD burner and DVD rom in my computer both drives act the same way. I used the burner to burn a DVD a few days ago and all is fine just seems now to just stop during a read. Any suggestions anybody ? Thanks !

Now that I know I have a problem..any movie. I've tried ones I've burned, and prerecorded orginials I have..all act the same way. I've tried to use DVD-Decrypter as well as Nero to copy any dvd..and it just stops 3/4 of the way..no error messages..computer still responds it doesnt lock it up and it acts this way in both drives...

I may try some of these other software solutions but I've already tried three different ones I have on both of my drives with the same results. What I don't understand that it used to work slick as a whistle no problems..until now and I don't what has happened to cause this as I have not copied any DVD's in a while until I tried two days ago. The computer is a P4 with 250GB drive 512M mem with a NEC DVD burner and a Samsung DVD Rom from Gateway about a year and half old and I am really selective about installing software on it and I checked for virus adware malware etc and all is clean...

Try uninstalling and reinstalling?
Could your DVD drive be going? Probably not, but something to think about.

I've checked on DMA it is showing as active..and if it is the drive cable why can I burn from the drives fine but stall during a read?

@ Mark_2112,
hey, so r u getting that error only on the same disk or u r getting that error while using different disks?
also what movie r u trying to rip?
Is the movie dirty or scracthed?
Also did u try DVDFab decrypter? if not this is a good ripper for dirty or scracthed disks, that error is usually a scrachted disk or a new protection
U can get DVDFab in pazzini's post

Only thing I can tell you is to try blowing some canned air into the drive, it may be some dirt that is in there. How old is this burner anyway?

Have you tried a system restore to back before you had the problems. It is unusual for both drives to crap at the same time with the sam problem. Got to be some conflict somewhere.

No I haven't tried to do that..I really don't know how far to go back because it had been a few months since I last ripped a DVD
