DVDShrink "cyclic redundancy check"

[carreragt]

Hi all, excuse a newbies ignorance.

I am having great difficulty backing up my copy of Van Helsing. DVDShrink gives the above error and cannot read the disk and this is a first for me.

No sweat I thought I'll use DVD Decrypter - no luck, DVDFab HD Decrypter - same result; a bunch of uncorrectable errors which seemingly preclude burning to a DVD.

Has anyone encountered this problem out there, is it a "dud" disk or some kind of copy protection I am encountering?

It is "some kind of copy protection." There is plenty of info here on this subject, including info specific to your title.

Did you ever resolve your problem?

I am having the same problem did you ever get a fix?

If you've tried dvd fab decryptor and that fubars too, it's most likely either a dud disc (maybe bad master error) or it's scratched (even a teeny scratch will kill some discs).

If the former, you're stuffed.
if the latter, take it to a video shop - most of them will clean a disc for you for about $3.
