general Problems with DVDdecrypter..and Now VDM

Postby NS » Sun Feb 24, 2008 12:56 pm

Ok, so I kinda talked about this in the IRC yesterday and didn't really find any solutions (although thanks to you who tried to help) so I thought I'd post my problem here.

First of all: DVDdecrypter. Either it won't decrypt my DVDs at all or it'll Take a long ass time (like.. 2 hours or sometimes longer) and then the product has shitloads of erros. Colored blocks popping up in places all the time and shit. So then I put this in Vdubmod because I'm like "fuck it, the frames that don't have the colored blocks and stuff are still good quality" and really, I'm frustrated so I was gonna just make due. Well now, Vdubmod will just Close itself out of nowhere here and there. Sometimes It takes it a while, but sometimes it'll close within a minute of me opening it.

I really don't know what this could be, and I really need help, so if you could help me.. I'd REALLY appreciate it.

Didn't work. It still stops multiple times during the decrypting process saying "Error, whatever" and I gotta like press retry untill it'll start going again. then when it's done there is the macroblocking or whatever the fuck it is...and Vdubmod is still closing on its own for no reason :\

and it's not JUST these dvds, it's my other DVDs to.. so It's prolly something wrong with the computer, but I have no idea what.

try looking for updated drivers for your dvd drive maybe?

do your problems occur only when you try to rip or do you have dvd playing issues as well?

not just DVD playing, I'm sure you've checked out xvids and mp4s, but try converting a known good xvid (or mpeg file) to a whatever codec you use to edit. I dunno, might be that... or you may have to go through your programs list and start cleaning up some extraneous codecs, drivers etc you don't need. I wouldn't go mucking about the add/ remove area without being SURE you don't need that program (ie set up a restore point or backup!). You may want to try just installing stuff like avisynth again... of coarse this often leads to even MORE havok lol.

so maybe your laser is ded or dying or
you flashed your firmware and screwed it up or
there's a power distribution problem inside your computer and the drive isn't being powered sufficiently?

trying borrowing a friends dvd drive (and drivers) and install it to see if it goes faster.

btw one of my drives does that for NTSC dvds but thats a region mismatch and just takes longer to rip (like 15 minutes) not what you are expierencing

but it's not the DVDs, because like I said, they work fine on my other computer in texas when I'm down there for the summer. Also, I don't know if this will help carify at all.. but the error I'm gettin' on the video is like this:

It's not contant, but it does happen rather frequently throughout.

lol that looks just like a dirty or damaged disc to me.

Some drives are more sensitive than others.

you may not have a scratch on the bottom it may actually be a small indent on the top which are sometimes hard to see from underneath but it's still damaged... i've done this accidently by tapping my finger on the top of a disc once. ;\
