Cloned DVD9 Game of Thrones to ISO

[callidus]

Hi all,

I used DVDFAB and cloned one of the Game Of Thrones disc to my computers HDD. I am wanting to burn it straight onto a DVD-R DL which I have. I am using IMGBURN to do this but when I click the start button at the bottom of IMGBURN it says 'THIS IMAGE FILE HASN'T BEEN MASTERED CORRECTLY FOR USE WITH AN DVD-R DL' and something about the layers aren't right...

Has anyone got any info on what has gone wrong and what I need to do?

As I say, I used DVDFAB which is 'all in one' so not sure why it hasn't worked properly.

Thanks in advance

In theory DVDFab should have been able to create an ISO correctly, so maybe that's the not the problem. Is there a reason why you are using DVD-R DL instead of DVD+R DL? I am wondering if that is your problem. DVD-R DL was an afterthought and to get it to work at all the manufacturers had to come with a kind of kludge. DVD-R DL is VERY demanding about how the layers are set up in a way that DVD+R DL is not and I'm wondering if that is your problem. Do you have the ability to burn to DVD+R DL? That might solve the problem. Do note that the ONLY reliable manufacturer of DVD+R DL discs is Verbatim. For DVD-R DL, if you must use it, the ONLY reliable manufacturers are Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden (usually quite difficult to find outside of Japan). I'm just going to be blunt - if you bought ANY other brand, you threw your money in the trash. If you did buy another brand, burn it as slow as ImgBurn allows for the best chance of not making a coaster.

To fix your problem so you can burn to DVD-R DL, it's a bit involved. What format did you rip to? ISO? Files? If you have files, you can use PgcEdit to make an ISO that should be suitable for ImgBurn to burn to DVD-R DL. See here

If you have an ISO and lack the original DVD, then mount it with some kind of ISO mounting tool like Daemon Tools, and rip it to files which you can then feed into PgcEdit as above. DVDDecrypter is free and it should be fine for ripping a mounted ISO to files. Outside of the USA DVDDecrypter rarely has problems, but US/Canada DVDs sometimes use copy protection that it doesn't understand and in those cases it can't rip the discs. If you already have an ISO then such protection, if it existed at all to begin with, has already been removed when you ripped to ISO.

Why didnt you just rip the game to your hard drive with IMGBURN to begin with? Why not use IMGBURN to copy the disc?

You dont need DVDFab, even DVDDecrypter is great for ripping games.

Because Game Of Thrones is a TV SHOW. It's not a game despite having "Game" in the title. Where do you live that you don't know that?

Rather than attempting to burn the ISO, extract all the files from it and burn the video_ts folder. In theory, imgburn should now suggest where the layer-break should be.

Maybe the reason he skimmed the original post and just picked out key words is because killerteengohan is actually a somewhat advanced, but slightly off, bot.

There is a Game of Thrones video game on PC, PS3 & Xbox 360. But the OP said he cloned one of.

So I'm sure he was referring to a disc in a dvd boxset.

LOL!!!

I know 12 year olds that know what Game of Thrones is

I've heard of Game Of Thrones.....but judging by what is written in the original post my reply would be:
"Because it's a video game, it's copy protected in ways that video/DVD decrypters cannot understand."

[Noahtuck]

I didn't, I figured right away he was talking about the TV show.
But he still has not replied with any other info so who knows what he is doing.

[hech54]

I thought it was a movie made from a video game, or vice versa.
I also couldn't name a single character from Lord Of The Rings either so......

[callidus]

Sorry for the delayed reply.

I dont want to be messing around with the folders, just want to be dealing with ISO's so if there is anyway to keep layers intact by cloning that would be good.

Verbatim DVD+R dual layer discs.
The End.

Yeah I have watched the LOTR movies and then I bought the extended ones, that have an hour or so more than the originals, but I never watched them yet, hell the first ones were so long I could not make it through one without a break!!
But I think the one hobbit or something was frodo, other than that I don't know any of their names, LOL!!!

And I don't have the original dvd disc's of Game of Thrones so I can't test them but yeah,
do a straight rip with anydvd & burn back with ImgBurn to Verbatim DL+R's
