Can't read DVD sector

cool9 · 07-17-2006, 07:18 AM

I'm ripping this DVD (with DVDShrink, DVDDecrypter, Smartripper) I made which is in mint condition and I get to a certain point and these rippers can't read it and stop. DVDShrink gets to a certain point when analyzing and just stops. I haven't had any problem ripping my DVDs (I rip several per day). Is this just bad data on the DVD?

Most likely if your dvd is scratched up and it skips when playing that certain dvd and you try to rip it then most likely you are going to get a bad sector or bad data error. There is nothing you can do about it. The only thing you can do is buy a new dvd and then try to rip it. This should work.
