A few years ago I burning my Dvd's onto disc using a combo of dvdshrink and anydvd (with dvdshrink doing the ripping). Now that I have a ps3 and could view my cpu files via tversity I began to re-rip them onto an external hard drive.
Here's the problem:
when I try to back-up these Dvd's that have been previously ripped with my old CPU they are only making it through have the encoding before coming up with an error.
New Dvd's and ones that were burned on the new CPU have no problem being ripped into my external hard drive...
Your previously ripped DVD's may have degraded or maybe they're on crap media and your drive doesn't like that media. Try giving them a real good cleaning. You may have to re-rip them from the originals.
Which, to add to dialysis' post, is the reason we press the point of using high quality media such as Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim, so often. Successful burns can usually be made using inferior media, but what you are left with in the future may not be of the same quality or even be completely useless.
Re-ripping backups is a pretty good way to see how good your backups are. Avoid the dreaded CRC error to get it on the HD and you should be ok.
Crap media/burned too fast/Multi-tasking-low resource machine/burning to outer edge of disc/STICKER LABELS/even a crappy burner- All can contribute to errors. Keeping those errors to a minimum is a must, in case you need to re-rip your backups later on.

What is the error? CRC=Cyclitical Redundancy Check?
Cpu only has to do with the speed of your backups,especially analyzing and encoding.Shrink is intensive on the CPU,usually 95+%. Only runs at around 5% during the burn.
Do you mean you switch computers?
Main thing is your dvd-rw drive/s. Are you using the exact same dvd-rw drive now from your old CPU and the new CPU?
Or is it a different dvd-rw drive in your new cpu?
There are big differences between dvd-rw drives and these differences can be seen when it comes to re-ripping backups that came from a crappy burner.
BTW: Backups are already encryption free and reduced to correct size,there's a faster way to do this.
ImgBurn,simply read to the harddrive that you desire.It's free.It's also a more powerful ripper and saved a few of my backups that gave crc errors. Then if you want to write the files,click write,locate that movie,and burn away.
Should take around 5 mins or so to rip to HD and is efficient in the older,low resource machines. My 498 mhz backup pc is actually faster than my main 3300+ pc with ImgBurn doing backup re-rips.
yes the message is CCR and its an entirly new cpu and burner than the one that I orignally began buring with...I just started re-ripping the movies to my HD with dvdfab5 rather than dvdshrink. so far it is working with most of the previously errored disc...i haven't had a chance to rip any more because my external hd ran out of space and im waiting on a new 1tb HD...thats so far for the help and i'll report back when iv;e had a chance to work with ImgBurn!
When people go switching computers or passing backups around,then they'll notice how some drives react differently to them.I had major issues with the HP640C dvd-rw drive that came bundled with my pc. The dozen or so backups off that burner were plumb full of crc errors,even with taiyo yuden and verbatim median. Huge differences between burners. Also differences between burn engines as well. I encountered this with backups from dvd decrypter having lower stand alone player compatability and the nero backups played just about anywhere.
Once you get a hold of a great burner,keep it. Pull that burner out before selling or giving the old pc away.
If you do have any backups that are unrippable,try dvd decrypter. Change a couple settings to- Rip with Brute Force and Ignore all Read errors. May take some time,but has worked for me several times. It's nearly identical to ImgBurn.Both were authored by the same person.
