Hello friends,

the following problem is bothering me:

When I try to decrypt the First DVD to harddisk in order to prepare a backup, it always fails when copying one of the VOB Files with a "random positioning error". Well, because I'm not a rookie I tried the following things:

1) I tried it on another DVD-ROM: Same Effect, won't copy.
2) I tried the First disk of another diskset from my friend: Same effect, won't copy (Therefore it must be a copy protection IMHO)
3) I tried to set DVD-Decrypter to fast error skipping mode and it worked, but after that I wasn't able to work with the copied files because all of my backup-programs (Pinnecale Instant Copy, DVDShrink, DD2One, CloneDVD) told me that the files are illegal.

But strange is that the Original-DVD plays on every DVD-Player. I tried it in 4 different players and it worked fine.

So, my question to you experts is: How can I make a backup of such a protected disk?

Thank you very, very much in advance,

yours truly

Lars

It wont be 'protection'. It might however be bad manufacturing.
Standalone players read anything, dont compare them to your highly accurate pc dvdrom drives.

Try the various modes of dvd decrypter. See what you can rip in file mode, doing it file by file.

Fast error skip will actually cause more errors - so personally, I'd leave it switched off.
