kallend 2,106 #1 December 25, 2011 I have a DVD that has a read error at one point. Some players just freeze for a few seconds and then move on, while others (such as Windows Media Player) stop completely. The DVD is not commercial and not protected. Nero and DVDshrink just hang up at that point when trying to make a copy. Is there any software that will copy the rest of the disk and just omit the bad sector?... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 5 #2 December 25, 2011 if it's a corruption in the VOB, it's sometimes possible to import the VOB to an NLE that doesn't need to look at i/b/p frames and skip over that missing GOP. How long/large is the file? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How long/large is the file? Total file is only around 8 mins long. Plays OK on my Sony DVD player (with a glitch at the error location). Gives a CRC error when I try to read the VOB on my PC. NLE???... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 5 #4 December 26, 2011 email the biggest .vob file to me at dspottedeagle@gmail.com If you have a gmail account, you can also share as a GoogleDoc, and share it at my above email address. If I can fix the file, I will. CRC error usually means a bit was lost here or there. DVD players are somewhat forgiving. Software players usually aren't. NLE=Nonlinear Editor (software editing application). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He will probably have that CRC error when he tries to copy the VOB file off the disk to email/share with you, wouldn't he?"I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 5 #6 December 27, 2011 Not necessarily, since it's just a copy of the file vs a read/scan of the entire file. Perhaps, but not likely, because the file header is apparently intact (otherwise, it wouldn't play at all). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
