I've cleaned the disc as well as I can...is there a program similar to Exact Audio Copy for ripping DVD's? DVD Decrypter doesn't seem too adept at error correction. Or do you guys have any other suggestions? Thanks.

hopes it helps -
nah.. repair it yourself !
Go to a hobbyshop, and ask for Tamiya Compound. (it's a very thin compound for medeling)
Then rub your DVD and scrath is gone.. I had 3 big scratch on a DVD (X Files Season 2 DVD1) and with 3 rub with this coumpont, you don't see any scratch and it finally play perfectly on my STandalone DVD player (was skipping before)
Try it ! it's less than 3$ -

Car wax suppose to work too. But I've always wondered if the heat produced from the drive would start to make the wax, and any other compound for that matter, melt.
Blah, blah, blah -
A local cd shop I go to uses pledge (the furniture polishing stuff) to fill in scratches on cds. Seems to work pretty well and they make a fortune off of fixing scratches... 2 dollars a disc, free for customers (I think).. but there are always people bringing in scratched discs everytime I go shopping.

LOL, I use Pledge and the yellow fluffy duster cloths to buff mine up
does the job just fine
I also clean my DVD-R blanks before cleaning them making sure they are spotless & dustfree before burning -

Those are all bad ideas in the long-term, but they provide short-term results. It is a valid worry that the extra goo you add will come off in your player and/or melt. It does. Don't do it often. Only fix the disc long enough to reburn a better copy, and toss the "fixed" original in the trash.
I've got a disc that came with factory errors, and having a hard time reading it to recopy. It stalls on all software and all players at the same spot. You can FF past the error in the players, and it will read after wards.
Anybody have ideas on that? Curious if any hobbiest though of a good rig-up to fix something like that. I'm willing to try about anything at this point, as the proper methods haven't worked at all.I'm not online anymore. Ask BALDRICK, LORDSMURF or SATSTORM for help. PM's are ignored. -
Have you tried this http://www.smart-projects.net/isobuster/ ? Give it a try, it's free and I've used it sucessfully a few times. They claim to be able to read coasters.

I also have a $30 orbital buffer that i use to buff out the the scratches fastcheck out http://www.geocities.com/eatin_sammiches/sprucecreations.html to download additonal buttons and backgrounds for SPRUCE-UP menu creation -
You can also use Brasso. About $4.00 for a bottle and it lasts forever. Personally, I use Brasso for heavy scratches them I have a Dr Fix It I use after the Brasso. The Dr Fix It is an amazing machine for $39.00.
