[Solved] Star Trek TOS Steelbook Set - Copy Errors on Disc 4

[olePigeon]

Hello.

I was wondering if I have a single bad disc, or if it's a production error, and if anyone else is having the same issue. I can't return my box set, it's waaaaaay past the return date.

It's the 55th Anniversary Star Trek The Original Series steelbook collector's set.

It was brand new. All the discs copied fine except Season 3 Disc 4. The disc appears to be in immaculate condition. I see no noticeable defects. On both my slim drive and even my 5.25" LG drive, I get similar errors (although my slim drive gives up much earlier and doesn't even attempt a workaround.):

Code: Select all

Error 'OS error - STATUS_DEVICE_DATA_ERROR' occurred while reading '\Device\CdRom0' at offset '129024'
Error 'Scsi error - MEDIUM ERROR:L-EC UNCORRECTABLE ERROR' occurred while reading '/BDMV/STREAM/00088.m2ts' at offset '129024'
Error 'OS error - STATUS_DEVICE_DATA_ERROR' occurred while reading '\Device\CdRom0' at offset '0'
The source file '/BDMV/STREAM/00088.m2ts' is corrupt or invalid at offset 129024, attempting to work around

Abbreviated list of errors as many of them repeat, and it was the same type of errors for 8 of the 10 items.

I'm going to attempt to contact CBS directly, but I'm not going to have my hopes up.

Never had any luck getting the disc to read even following some tricks in a different thread.

Fortunately I was able to still get a refund, no thanks to CBS / Paramount. So I'm going to buy another set. Hopefully it's not the case for all of them.

Looks to have been that one set. I bought a used copy and the disc worked fine.

Looking closer at the original disk, it has this weird wavy pattern that isn't present in the other discs. I wonder if it was a manufacturing error on that single disc.
