My DVD is brand new and a single disc.

Both of the latest versions of Anydvd and DVDfab platinum cannot handle the full disc back up.

Dvd fab platinum can rip the main movie but the produced vob files are not recognised by DVD shrink\Vob blanker and i tried FixVts too.

Any ideas of what i'm doing wrong

I've got 3 vob files in the Video_TS folder that seem invisible to everything else ?

Any more help here would be appreciated

If you live in US and have AnyDVD 6490 and CAN'T do Hancock it's your disc, pc, or burner! This disc was easy and 4 versions back handled Hancock the first day it came out, and did not leave DRMs on the backup disc as I showed you, N2DVD, when you were telling me it had. I backed up the copy without anydvd active-on the fly.

Hi folks

Success at last

Method:

Downloaded the lastest version of DVDFab Platinum 5.2 set to DVD-9 > then used DVD Shrink 3.2 to read files and create my back up.

I could only back up the main movie and not the entire DVD.

Also, it worked best when i used my DVD Rom drive to read the disk and not my burner drives ?

Thanks folks

garmoon@ Yeah....I replied "movie only"...which is different from title and menu in most cases. I still have never seen a bad press. In my world there's encryption...and encryption...then how do you handle it.:)

Success for me too! Used DVDFab Decrypter (the free one) then DVD Shrink to convert to .iso then burned with DVD Decrypter. Used the same method for prince caspian with success the first time for once =D (I got the whole movie from both DVDs =D)

@N2DVD

To be fair, I have not seen any discs that were bad presses that I have not been able to copy. I have gotten discs from friends that want a copy and have not been able to rip them because of the condition of the disc. But there have been cases when members have just narrowed it down and told the person to go exchange the disc; and they then have success with the new disc. JM2C :)

I personally don't believe there are such things as bad presses, though i admit i've never read up on the subject. I have personally come across discs that don't rip/read correctly/at all on the odd optical drive and work fine on others. This is what i think people think are bad presses, i'll wager the phenomenon happens mostly to people who only have one optical drive ie with no other drive to try ripping with hence have no option but to return the disc for another.
My main ripping drive is still my 5year old LG dvd-rom/cdwriter combo drive (how in hell it's still going i don't know), i also use an LG 4167B dvd burner as a ripping drive but that occasionally exhibits symptoms of what i think are bad press symptoms.
My 4167B (well two of them actually) had in the past been a bit unreliable for burning dvd's so is now only used to burn cd's and rip dvd's with. Very rarely i use my Benq DW1650's to rip - they are excellent (and very fast) ripper drives but i only like to burn with those.

sounds about like my tactics exactly! :D



To delete, or not to delete. THAT is the question!

I had one bad press which led me to start posting. I had tried the disk on both of my drives in my desktop and my drive in my laptop. They all got hung up on the same part on a brand new disk. Three drives, used dvdfab and anydvd, tried movie only and full disk, and nothing worked.

That was the only bad press I had in the past 3 years.

@creaky

What a coincidence my trusty LG external 2166D about 4-5 yr old now would read discs that my BenQ1650s could not read. I rarely use it since it is slower than my internal drives then and now. The NecOptiarc and Litey are my burners-mainly the optiNEC with the litey ripping. But the LG will still bail me out when the others balk. And the LG will triple burn with the other two in a pinch. LG made a good drive or whoever made it. Greensman probably knows. Let me know greenie if you stumble upon this post.LOL

Hey guys.. my trials for the programs you have all recommended are up. I normally just use DVD Shrink, and when there is a problem, RipIt4Me. However, with Hancock, it won't even start with RipIt4Me. The program crashes when it starts creating the PSL file. Does anyone know why this is and what I can do about it? Thanks...

DVDFab HD Decrypter should be able to handle this flawlessly. As usual, ripped it with DVDFab HD Decrypter, delete/blank out unwanted junks via VobBlanker and Nero Recode 3 took care of the rest, burn with ImgBurn.

Yeah, I'm having trouble with Hancock as well. Even DVDFab Decrypter 5 failed. Ripitforme failed as well, and the bugger nearly crashed my computer. Had no trouble with Batman though. I'm not sure what move I'll make next, prolly just give up.

Dark, I used DVDFab Decrypter 5 and it worked flawlessly (thanks everyone). I'm not so good with the troubleshooting aspect of burning, but there has to be another problem...

@darksun

Is your DVDFab version 5222??If not you're not up to date. Fab will do this movie. Like sports070 said there is another problem with you pc, disc or another program.

Is the disc CLEAN? If not clean it. Those fingerprints will sometimes make the disc unreadable!

Man that's a lot of work ....

I myself have had a few stubborn scratched DVDs that nothing including the above described methods have worked for.

The only thing that is capable of recovering many of these is DV X Rescue.

This program is no longer in production and when it was ... was not for the average user....

mostly due to issues with software incompatiblities....

There are very few things that play nicely with dvd x *.
Anything by sonic or roxio being the big ones. Meaning Nero is a must ... DDVD shrink poses no problem. Under no circumstance should you ever install it on a system running Panasonic DVD motion. This leads to instant blue screens ....
Also i don't believe it will run on vista ... so it's XP only ...

Also I have a friend who finds it imparative that he never watch his origionals - and will only watch backups.... I can tell you he was able to make a backup of Habcock with Rescue.

Only rescue was able to ignore the bad blocks which are intentionally creatted as part of a physical encoding found on certain movies.

Most video playing software will intentionally skip bad blocks on dvds because they are written to do such to avoid most skips...

Most copy software cannot. DVD X rescue produces perfect copies of movies affected because it was designed to ignore bad blocks as part of dvd recovery functionality. It can therefore read any but the worst of scratched discs and recover most bad block data.

It is to date the only piece of proper optical physical media recovery software I have seen that includes decryption .....

It's sad they lost the law suit... After it went off the market there has been no other integrated software ssystem doing what it does as a single integrated software suite...
:/

Let me merely say in closing that it is sad this piece of software was killed by the recording companies .....

the next best thing to DVD X Copy Rescue is Intervideo DVD Copy 6 , it works well backing up scratched DVDs

Another thing that helps read badly scratched DVDs is a different ODD. In my old pc I had 2 wonder BenQ 1650s that sometimes had trouble reading a disc. My external LG USB connected was able to read the one they couldn't. I still have that drive for that purpose if the 7200S NEC or 20A1S litey falter-but haven't so far.

"SUCCESS". I just backed up the one disk Unrated Version 2 Hr 2 Min long Using Ripit4me With DVD Decryptor And bacd up the riped file with DVD Shrink to a 3.68 G file and put it on A 4.7 G DVD-R with Nero 9. I set DVD Decryptor everthing to default then in the "general" tab change, "Removal method" from normal to "Agressive",in "File Mode "tick" "Remove PUO's".For ripping in the "ISO Read Mode","TICK" "remove PUO's there also. In the CSS tab, under "CSS Cracking methode", chose "Brute force ->I/O Key Exchange" and "on Faliure" chose "yes"...Important: In the I/O tab, in the bottom right' "tick" the box wich says, "Ignore Read Errors" and set read retrys to 3. And i riped it in the ISO read Mode. Then I just drg and droped the file into DVD Shrink then it analyzed it and I backed it up to a file wher I new the location and put on a 4.7 G DVD-R with Nero 9.
