I am able to open the DVD and get to the selection screen after about 15 minutes into the rip it errors. I double checked the disc and there are no obvious scratches any suggestion would help also I can provide screenshots if needed

No need for screen shots, just log entries. The log says what MakeMKV saw.

Welp I started ripping the movie again to get the error code and it decided to work this time.

A lot of temporary errors can happen. A common one is if the disk spins faster than the drive has power for... and having a very fast write capability can hit that. You'll see it as errors about the drive going off-line. Slow it down just a bit, say, if the hard drive is busy with more than one thing going on at a time, and things suddenly (and mysteriously) work.

If that was what happened, you may get this on another disk. Just remember to keep track of the log.

The good old "Did you try to turn it off and on again?" saved the day again
