Can't Copy A DVD Copy...

[DownriverMurphy]

I've been using DVD Fab 8.0.5.0 to copy DVDs. I've been copying DVD9's down to DVD5's. The copies work fine playing in the computer and in stand alone DVD players. Recently I tried to copy one of the copies and DVD Fab (and also Nero) wouldn't even recognise the disc. I've been using the "Full Disc" option when copying.

Some discs that I downloaded from the internet that were ISO's and burned to a disc work fine. Also, I started copying original discs, with DVD Fab, to my harddrive first and saving them as ISO's. Then I've burned the ISO's to disc and those work fine if I try to copy those copies.

I just can't figure out how to copy the copies that I made that aren't from an ISO file. I have 300 to 400 discs that I cant copy. Please help.

My guess would be that you burned them(the non-ISO ones) incorrectly. They are probably DATA discs....not DVD Video. Stop using Nero and use ImgBurn.

I tried ImgBurn. That wouldn't copy my copies either.

I never used Nero to burn any of the original DVD copies. I only tried Nero when trying to copy a copy. Also, I don't know how I would have burned them incorrectly. When I used DVD Fab I copied it straight to another disc.

You could try using ISOBuster (free) to create an ISO image. ISOBuster is a data recovery too. If it can't read the disc, something has gone very wrong.

And try the old DVD Decrypter; old but a fantastic tool on unprotected dvd's

You misunderstood me. If the discs you are trying to copy were originally burned with Nero....you may have burned them as DATA discs....not DVD Video.

try IsoPuzzle...if it can't do it then somethin's wrong

[DownriverMurphy]

I've never even heard of IsoPuzzle before but it seems to be working. I've tried it with a couple of the discs and everything seems to be working great.

Thank you everybody for all of your help!
