Backing up Donnie Darko Director's cut Disc1

[handsoff]

I am trying to back up my new Donnir Darko Director's cut movie. i have backed up disc 2 with no problem using anydvd and clonedvd. but disc 1 which has the movie is different. it gets an error reading data at about 83-87% on clone dvd. i have access to dvd decyrpter and dvd shrink which neither can handle the job. am reading off a toshiba 16x dvd rom/ burner is nec 3520a newest firmware installed. any ideas?

Have you tried ripping it with your writer? Sometimes that's all it takes.

i also tried that too same result. i am trying in my other computer w/ lite on burner and pioneer dvd rom drive will post results when done

My LiteOn writer will often rip DVDs that my LiteOn ROM chokes on.

i have also tried riping using dvd decyrptor (forgive any spelling errors very frustrated right now) in both ifo/iso modes to see if i could open in dvdv shrink..nope didn't work. maybe this is a new copy protection? if the pioneer doesn't work as far as ripping i will try in the lite on... other then that i am out of ideas

If it's the new copy protection, decrypter should be able to deal with it. What version are you running ?

You could also try the latest version of anydvd, which also handle the new stuff.

Well..here's a thing. I tried backing up Disc 2 of The French Connection with DVDShrink...a no go. Used DeCrytpter and it took it apart BUT,....nothing will burn what's left. Any ideas?

I copied Donnie just fine both discs.
Shrink and D-crypter, same as always.

problem solved..it must have just been the toshiba drive. i put in my other computer used clonedvd and anydvd no problems... sorry if this was a waste but thanks for all the ideas
