Pauses when ripping then carries on

[Blyth]

I'm not getting any error messages but this has happened to two different films, it will pause near the end you can hear the drive stops then in about 3-4 minutes it will start again.

It is a USB drive with no separate power cable.

Just seeing if it happens to anyone else? The drive stops for a few minutes then it powers up and then carries on, sometimes it will do it a couple of times during a rip.

Does it really stop or just slow down?

MakeMKV drive speed control

This is the last entry in that thread:

Starting with 1.15.3 MakeMKV manages read speed more actively. Specifically, it switches to the minimum speed not only on errors, but also around disc edges and layer breaks. Passing the layer switch on minimum speed eliminates many firmware bugs relayed to high-speed seek errors.

Its not speed control it completely stops the light on the player goes out, if I go into device manager the manager freezes.

Defective or dirty discs can lockup my LG disc player so badly that I need to power cycle my computer. Try cleaning or replacing the problem discs.

Thanks I will give it a clean the next time it happens.
