install 68 and now dvd transfer screwed up.

[dannyv]

This is just to weired. I was rebuilding a project with rb .067 and got a buffer overflow 0003. I installed rb v068 and got the same overflow. Usually when this happens I re-rip the dvd and all is well. I launched DVD decrypter and started the rip and could not get a speed faster then 1.5x. When I ripped the same dvd about 2 hours prior and before installing v.068 I was ripping it at a top speed of 9.0 which is the usual speed this dvd-rom rips at. I don't see how doing an upgrade of dvd-rb would cause this problem.

So I troubleshot as follows.

1. Checked to make sure the drive was in DMA and not in PIO mode
2. Checked connections to dvd-rom
3. Switched from cable select and placed the hd on master and dvd to slave on secondary IDE channel.
4. Made the dvd only device on secondary channel.
5. Changed the cables.
6. Took the dvd-rom out of my other machine and tried it in this machine and still got very slow rip.
7. Took the problem dvd and put it in my working machine and it worked fine so I know its not the dvd-rom.
8. deleted dvd decrypter, dvd-rb, avisysth, cce and any other assoicated program and configuration file then reinstalled everything.

I did rip the dvd at 1.5x and processed the project and it came out fine but I just don't understand what happened to my dvd rip transfer speed.

DVD-rb has been working fine since back in v 058 so I am completely stumped.

If anyone can give me some sugestions It would be greatly appreciated.

My machine stats are at the bottem of this post

<<EDIT>> Tried the rip on my other machine with the dvd-rom from the problem machine and it ripped at top speed of 9.7x so it is also not the disk.

or virus?

Checked with norton antivirus and there was no virus and also ran spyware blaster and no spyware. As an IT professional I'm usually very careful about viruses and spyware and check the machines regularly.

I don't believe spyware blaster actually scans and deletes spyware, it just prevents it.

are you sure the drive are set to DMA mode? (if you have DVD Region+CSS Free installed, try run it & go to setting > select your dvd drive > ok > choose enable DMA.if the drive are in DMA mode,the'Enable DMA for dvd drive'option will be gray out).
i use an intel i875 board (abit ic7max3), when my optical device switch from DMA to pio mode (usually happen when not responding after reading some disc), no matter how i set in device manager, it still stay pio, so i use the above matter to fixed it.
or try to reinstalled the motherboard driver.
hope this help:p

I'm positive they are in DMA mode. One intrestng thing I ran nero drive speed and it gave me a speed of 7.5x max but in dvd decrypter on the same DVD it only rips at 1.5x. I again uninstalled dvd decrypter and reinstalled it and I get the same thing. Now I'm even more confused. The speed test shows 7.5 but dvd decrypter only shows 1.5x. Nero's dvdinfo tool shows the drive in DMA mode.

@burgerpardis

You are correct spyware blaster is just protection I run that in the background. That was my mistake what I ran to scan the machine was spybot search and distroy.

Try deleting the cdrom drive in Device Manager and restarting the machine. I ran into this myself a few months back and could only get about 1.2 max transfer. After trying everything short of pulling my hair out (the short and curly ones even :p), things went back to normal after doing the above.

It's about the only thing I didn't try. Thanks for the suggestion I'll try it tonight.

I always rip with decrypter before running dvd-rb...
