Title failing to save due to subtitle track?

Post by batty »

I ran into some trouble with disc 3 of Shout Factory's Gekisou Sentai Carranger with Title #3 failing to save. However, it saves just fine when I don't include the English Subtitle track.

Am I correct in assuming this is a mastering error?

Not necessarily a mastering error; it could just be that there is a bad spot on the disk that corresponds with where that subtitle is in the file. I've had rips fail for similar crazy stuff.

It's been a season for crazy stuff - are you ripping this with a DVD drive, or a BD drive? Some BD drives do not do well with marginal DVD disks. As I mentioned elsewhere, I keep 2 USB DVD drives available for when I hit a disk like that, which happens about once a year.

DVD drive. I tried it with a few different ones and they all hit this same failure. So I'm at least confident that's not the snag.

Wasn't there something about closed captions which sometimes were said they are there, but there weren't?

What happens if you deselect only forced subtitles?

Edit: thanks Woodstock *changed forced to closed captions*

I'd forgotten about that - if the DVD claims to have Closed Captioning, but doesn't actually have CC, the rip can fail. Disabling the CC track prevents the problem.
