HELP - trouble backinp up DVDs...
Hello,
I'm having some problems lately backing up movies. I have an NEC ND-3500AG Dual Layer Drive that I've been using for quite some time with no problems (at least none that I have noticed much). I use DVD Decrypter v3.5.4.0 and CloneDVD2 v2.0.9.4 for backing up DVDs. I usually compress using CloneDVD2 making sure I keep the quality level high by cutting out the features I don't want.
I ran Wedding Crashers through Decrypter using File Read mode and all was fine, no errors. I used CloneDVD2 to burn and burned fine, no errors.
Got a little over half way through the movie and started pixelating. Tried another DVD player (I thought my old, old Panasonic may have been going South) and worked fine for a while, then at Chapter 19 near the end, started pixelating real bad and skipped, stopped, started, pixelating real bad the whole time. Popped out the DVD and put it in my PC in the DVD drive it was burned in and right about the point it was pixelating bad, it locked up my PC (was using PowerDVD for playback).
What the heck is going on? Is my burner going bad? Should I buy a new one? Is DVD Decrypter really not pulling all the copy protection out? I'm really stumped. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
