Cannot backup Ayumi Hamasaki DVD

[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.

Im willing to bet that its probably a problem with the disc and not a copy protection at all.

That's what I thought at first. As I stated before: on the stand alone dvd player it plays all the way through. Plus, as a test, I played it on that older dvd rom using Power DVD, and it plays all the way through without freezing. I would assume if the disc was damaged, that it would freeze at the presumably damaged part on the disc. But twice it played through with no problems. After playing it twice, I tried to rip it again, and the results are still the same with that. I'm gonna give DVDRemake a shot. If that doesn't work, then I think I'm all out of options for the present moment.
