Fellowship of the ring Pt1

Post by Blarpie »

Just tried to rip the first disc of the extended version.

Are there some anti-computer/rip methods they use on discs (other than the encryption) to mess up the read of the discs?
First what happens is that the drive spins up and down while reading just the meta/content-information.
I get the "folder" structure of the content but after about 10s makemkv closes the video/audio/sub-selection window and it says "read error".
If I quickly deselect just the main stuff I don't want (like bonus material etc.) it reads the disc fine and it rips.
But I can't keep it open for longer than 10-15s without the closing of the window and "read error".
Almost reminds me of the old 3.5" diskette era where physical errors where added to the original diskettes :)

The discs are brand new and the reader is about 2 weeks old.
Asus BW-16D1HT with the firmware from the UHD drive thread.

Other discs works fine but this was the first one which gave trouble.

Read errors are almost always exactly that - the drive cannot read the disk. Usually it is because the disk is dirty.

Top of the Bluray forum, read the "errors" topic.

As I mentioed, it's brand new out of the pack...no dirt.

Reads the disc fine except it seems like there are issues while reading the structure and errors out while you're deselecting the parts you don't want.
It would probably even be fine if MakeMkv could cache the selection stuff and try again.
Now when the window disappear you don't really have a choice than try to do your selection before it exits due to a "read error".

Can the disc be faulty, of course it can't be ruled out but it still rips fine as long as you get out the selection->start-rip hurdle.

Will create a debug log/dump.
