I am a star wars fan i have most of the star wars games that came out for ps2. So I recently bought the game Star Wars Battlefront 2 for my ps2 at eb games, and i wanted to back up the game like what i did for my other star wars games. However after i made an image via Dvd Decrypter and started burning, from 3x speed it started dropping to 0.7x-0.1x speed, the buffer remained at 0% and only the device buffer was moving.

I am worried if it is a problem with my burner, because i never encountered it with any of the other star wars games being backed up

It could be having trouble reading the image? Maybe try ripping it again?

Most likely there is a small scratch or imperfection in the disc, especially if it was preowned. Try ripping the game with Alcohol 120%.

88. Q. How do I burn PS2 DVD games with Alcohol 120%?
A. Ripping the game to your Hard Drive:

1. Insert your disc.
2. Open Alcohol 120%.
3. Click Image Making Wizard.
4. Check Ignore read errors, select your recorder, leave the never seperate box alone.
5. Click Next. Select a destination for the game. Click Start.
Once the process is complete, you'll get an mds and an mdf file. Click finish, if necessary.

Burning the game to DVD:
1. Insert your blank disc.
2. Right click the mdf file.
3. Select Image Burning Wizard.
4. Select your recorder, set the write speed to 4x.
5. Click next.

Note: I use Alcohol 120% as my backup program for ripping scratched originals. DVD Decrypter can be picky with scratched discs. I use DVD Decrypter to burn the mds file. For purposes of this guide, I'm assuming you are you using Alcohol 120% to burn the game to disc. Feel free to use whatever works for you.
