So I just cleaned the disc with a soapy microfiber cloth, and… it f’ing worked! 😄MartyMcNuts wrote: ↑Sat Jun 07, 2025 10:13 amThe drive is having difficulty reading a certain spot on the disc. CLEAN THE DISC!!! Very important, especially with brand new UHD discs as they often have an invisible film on them from the manufacturing process. This solves these types of issues 99% of the time.Dark_Helmet wrote: ↑Sat Jun 07, 2025 7:18 amThanks for helping, Marty! 😊MartyMcNuts wrote: ↑Sat Jun 07, 2025 12:08 amThen it is not a key issue. CLEAN THE DISC!!! Then try again.
The disc is brand new and looks like a mirror.
I was in a rush to watch the movie, so I pulled out my old Blu-ray player (an LG UP970) connected to the TV. It did freeze once near the end, but I think that was just the old player acting up. I restarted the movie and jumped to the closest chapter with the freezing scene — it played fine after that, so I think it was a one-off issue.
This morning, I fired up MakeMKV again, and it could read the disc — but the same problem happened about halfway through.
Here’s the first error I got:
Error 'Scsi error - NOT READY:LOGICAL UNIT IS IN PROCESS OF BECOMING READY' occurred while reading '/BDMV/STREAM/00294.m2ts' at offset '32302430208'
I let it sit longer this time, and it restarted itself, now reading at 1x speed. Then I got this:
Error 'Scsi error - UNIT ATTENTION:POWER ON, RESET, OR BUS DEVICE RESET OCCURRED' occurred while reading '/BDMV/STREAM/00294.m2ts' at offset '32303345664'
Now I’m getting a bunch of these messages:
The source file '/BDMV/STREAM/00294.m2ts' is corrupt or invalid at offset 32302448640, attempting to work around
Too many AV synchronization issues in file '/BDMV/STREAM/00294.m2ts' (title #-), future messages will be printed only to log file
I have to head out soon, so I might just let it run for a few more hours and see what happens. Even though there is no activity to see, and “remaining time” is just going up — it’s saying 12 hours now.
Ripped the movie in about an hour.
Next time, Marty, please be more clear with your advice — maybe four exclamation marks next time? 😜
Seriously though — thanks, man. I can’t believe how fragile this media is.
Appreciate the help!
