Cannot backup Ayumi Hamasaki DVD

[generalplot]

I am really doing some homework tonight. Lolz. Here's another site on my research. Apparently, Blindwrite 5 can do the rip.

I am ripping the dvd right now as I type, but one thing to note, I think the disc has bad sectors just before the end of the first 01_1.vob file and continues through the rest of the disc, as ripping it has so far been a VERY slow process, about 2-6k a second, but it seems to be able to bypass the bad sectors and keep going. The software has reported no read errors. I'll post the results of this experiment when it finishes.

Awww man I really dont wanna have to buy Passion OTC just to test this out myself but it seems that maybe that particular movie may have this new protection.


Keep us informed, generalplot.

Well, 10 hours after I started ripping, and it has just cleared the 1 gig mark, and still dragging. I'm not sure if Blindwrite can rip this disc or not, but I don't find it feasable to let it spend a week ripping, just to possibly wind up with a bad ISO image if the rip doesn't go right. One thing that I found out while searching, is that someone noted that the Ring Protection system can not be used in a daul layer commercial disc, and that would make sense. I was wondering why my Ayumi Hamasaki DVD was only 4.18 GB, yet the entire video is over 2 hours long. For those that want to know, the disc is Ayumi Hamasaki: Museum-30th single collection live. A little strange I think, as this disc was rated as one of her best. Perhaps the reason nobody has it on the P2P is that nobody else can seem to rip it either. With any luck, I hope to be the first.

We are strictly against piracy here. I had to edit your message so people dont get the wrong idea.

Tried another DVD-ROM a Toshiba (older model) and was able to copy all dvd files except for 01_3.vob, using no software at all. All apps give the CRC Cyclic Redundancy Check error. If anyone has any other ideas on how to copy a dvd protected with bad sectors in the middle of the disc like that, I'd sure like to hear it. Blindwrite wouldn't even begin to read with the older dvd rom and I tried the newest version of AnyDVD, and no dice.
