Back Up DvD - Major Problem ;/

[SyXx]

Hi there.

I recently noticed that My Red Hot Chili Peppers: Live At Slane Castle DvD had a large scratch at the side and decided to make a back up of it.

I immediatly started shrink and loaded the disc, Now it reads to 97% then hits me with a data error, cannot read.

Now I did it again and activated the video preview, the mean menu, tracks and all round even is fine, Its the end credits that are causing the problem, that must be where the scratch it located.
DvD Shrink wouldnt continue.
I started up DvD Decrypter/ Mode ISO Read, began the process... again 97% error, cannot continue.

Now I dont really care for the end credits, I just dont want me use my original anymore, but i do watch this concert a LOT, so I really want a back up for my pleasure.

Can anyone think of anything that would help me here?
Im ripping my hair out.

Ive tried to copy the files to the hard drive multiple times and am having no luck whatsoever.

Thanks in advance for anyone who has any idea whatsoever.

Hello,

Try DVD Decrypter. Then you can choose what titals to backup.

Is there a guide for that mate ?

[ricky1756]

you could also use vobmerge, and make it one big mpeg2 file, and then cut out the bad part and reauthor

Would that keep my menus intact and linked etc ricky ?

[SyXx]

No it wouldnt would it.

Hmm

Will any of these solutions all him to rip only part of the main title. Shrink, Decrypto etc will all allow you to pick which titles, but they will want to take all of the title. If he can't rip it, he can't edit it later.

You could always try using some sort of rubbing compound to remove the scratch. Even if you don't get the whole thing, you may be able to get most of it.

Rip with Decrypter, goto settings, select 'do not read errors', it is under I/O TAB, if it does complete then goto Shrink to re-author, shrink and encode into an ISO file.
