nero data read error

[gbw081]

hey guys,
I am using a demo version of nero on my laptop (ver 6.0..) and am wondering why when i try to burn a dvd it keeps telling me data read error. My desktop gives me problems encoding and now my laptop gives me trouble burning...On the lap top there is no problem encoding. But when i burn with nero it gets about 12% and tells me there is a data read error with every dvd i try to copy. I have used dvdshrink and dvd decrypter to put the files on my hd? Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do?

Thanks

Insted of using your outdated Nero - use DVDDecrypter for burning.

"But when i burn with nero it gets about 12% and tells me there is a data read error with every dvd i try to copy."

In addition to the fact that the version of NERO that you are using is terribly flawed, the consistency of your problem may be indicative of either a hardware (burner) problem or poor quality media...

Have you transfered your original DVD to your hard disk using DVDDecrypter and then your are using DVDShrink on the files that are on your hard disk? Don't really get you.

When i try to decrypt it works fine, but sometimes the movie alone is too big to try to burn, for example the godfather. When i try to decrypt it in file mode (just the movie) it is still too big so then i try to shrink it with dvd shrink. Is that not correct?

Another question, how do you burn with decryter? I try to use the write button and it cant find the file. I am a little confused on this?

Thanks you guys.

Yes, that's correct...



"Another question, how do you burn with decryter?"

DVD Decrypter is ONLY capable of burning .ISO image files (one file represents the entire contents of the DVD)...

it took me a minute to realize that i had to register with the link that cynthia gave me. I followed the instructions of the link and tried to burn with decrypter and it said data read error..cyclicc redundancy?? I havent had time to try to search for those answers so i will now. Thanks for the inpu guys, we will get there.

Thanks again.

Use DVD Decrypter to "rip" the DVD to your hard drive in "File" mode - and from the "Edit" dropdown menu, select "All files" (NOT "movie files").

Then use DVD Shrink to "Open files" (NOT "Open Disk") - and select "VIDEO_TS.IFO"
