Tron

Big Oh · 5th April 2011, 20:57

I'm not able to decrypt Tron. I've tried DVDFab, DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink. As the programs are reading the disc an error comes up approx. 33% in.

Hi!

"Tron" (1982) or "Tron - Legacy" (2010)?

Big Oh · 5th April 2011, 23:04

Tron - Legacy (2010)

setarip_old · 6th April 2011, 00:23

Typically, if a new decryption formula is required, it usually shows up a day or two after the Region 1 release (R1 version was released today)...

Big Oh · 6th April 2011, 03:31

Cool, thanks. I'll wait a couple of days and see if anything new shows up.

I got a nice clean rip with DVDFab 8.0.8.5. Sometimes it helps if you rip every soundtrack and subtitle, so that DVDFab rips the m2ts file straight without doing any processing on it. Also, rip title 800, not 532.

Lyle: I tired full disc & movie only, I got the same result. I didn't understand you last sentence... "Also, rip title 800, not 532"

@Big Oh

The post by "Lyle_JP" refers to .M2TS files - indicative of ripping a Blu-ray, while I believe your references to DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink indicate that you are trying to copy a DVD...

Big Oh · 6th April 2011, 22:51

Yes setarip_old, I am trying to decrypt a DVD, with no luck. I've tried full disc and movie only. I get the pop up that reads "Reading/Writing Error Control" then it reads "error while reading! Please choose what to do? The options are, Retry, Abort, Ignore & Ignore all. I choose Ignore all. It seems to work but when I get to 28% of the decrypting it just freezes and holds at 28.65%

Lyle_JP · 7th April 2011, 00:52

Oh, my bad. I didn't think there was any challenge to ripping DVDs anymore, so I assumed it was blu-ray you were having trouble with.

@Big Oh

The following thread at another forum appears to indicate that your problem may be a flawed disc containing mastering errors ("exchanged discs, new one works fine"):

Still no luck. That wasn't very easy trying to return an open movie. This disc seems to be doing the same thing. WOW!!!

Hi Big Oh

I dont know if this is the same problem you have, but it may be.

Some years ago I had a similar probelm with a DVD, it was "Witchfinder General" R2. It played almost ok and jumped round the problem in a player.

Backing up was of course a different matter.
It would get so far and fail, it failed in a way that I knew it was the disk itself.

However, replacing the disk twice did not help. The probelm was exactly the same. The Master from which the disks were produced was in fact faulty.

setarip_old · 7th April 2011, 18:49

If the replacement DVD doesn't suffer from mastering errors, there's always the possibility that your drive (DVDRom or burner) burner is at fault - either needs cleaning or is dying. Two things to try:

1) Use the same drive to rip an original, commercial DVD that you previously successfully on the same system. If it fails in a similar fashion to "TRON-Legacy", then

2) Try cleaning the drive with a DVD/CD cleaning disc. Maxell makes one that sells for about $10US

I've often wondered how you explain to the retailer why a disc needs swapping.
Would love to know more about how the conversation went...

Personally, I've never encountered any resistance when simply requesting to exchange (not just return) a newly purchased disc that doesn't play back properly for another disc of the IDENTICAL product (Of course, you wouldn't want to mention the word "copy").

In turn, the storekeeper will return the disc to the vendor, either in exchange for another disc or for a credit to his/her account with the vendor...

Big Oh · 8th April 2011, 03:23

mike20021969 it was exactly as setarip_old said, it was a big box store and I just said it was glitchy in my player and I'm not sure if it was the player or DVD and before I go out and by a new player I'd like to rule out the DVD. There was a little resistance but I was exchanging and not straight out returning.

setarip_old · 8th April 2011, 03:30

@Big Oh

Have you tried the suggestions I made to you in Post #5?

If so, what were the results?

Good to know, but you're previous statement suggested otherwise which is why I was curious.

Mike, they try to break your chops, like they have a choice in the matter, but when I mentioned that at $22.99 they should back their product and if not I'll just do what everyone else does and go to the black market products and then he changed his tone... as I said "not easy" but "little resistance".

setarip_old... this is horrible to say but, the two copies I tried from Best Buy didn't work (I assume they're from the same source) I went to my local Blockbuster and rented and copy and it worked just fine!!! Wow!!!
