Let's Discuss CRC error

[Kniwor]

Ok, basically there's been a lots of thread and discussions on this, and we all know what it is, I'd be better we discuss how each of us handle the error.

Suppose u are copying a Video DVD, and have a CRC error, this is the most unfortunate situation as you know that u can skip a little video and the rest of DVD is just fine, but windows wont allow that. What do u do in that case.

The most effective solution I've found so far is ISOBuster, but it's too damn slow if there are many errors, well u can play in the options to make the retries '0', use a custom setup and make it lot faster.

but still it remains slow.

How do each of you tackle the problem? Because sometime there is some Important "Home video" a party or picnic video with friends that just cant be replaced.

sometimes, using the commandline copy command works.

I use nero and create image for such CD od or DVD...

after image is created u can use that cd without any hassle

[vinyas]

Make a Image Alcohol 120% Image with a "Bad Disc Profile"... it does Sector scanning ... skips the Bad sectors

i encountered CRC Error witha game disk

i've tried "Ultra ISO" for doing this to recover my GTA San Andreas (original) files, but it took 9 HOURS for completing the process, & when i used Daemon Tools, Alcohol, Nero... to mount them, they gave same error, that its a corrupt image...

my method which worked Flawlessly - what i used -> a Vaccum Cleaner, Cotton Ear Buds.

First cleaned the Lens with the ear buds, then used the Blower of Vaccum Cleaner to blow out the Dust (did this two times) & also washed the DVD with Shampoo, guess what that DVD still work

[47shailesh]

huh...
so we come up wid two methods

1. when ur cd contains bad sector then try making image

2. when ur lens is cover with dust then use that @s18000rpm said.

ne one to add

[jay_jay]

1.play ur video in a standalone dvd player and try to capture it.it is the best method.

2.try "unstop copier" ,atleast u will get the good portions.

just try-sometimes may be worser
1.alcohol 120%
2.virtual cd-change itz copying settings-errs r not such big prblm in video as in programs or datas

[Kniwor]

yeah, I've been using alcohol for faster results, with skip error option.

@jay_jay
link to unstop copier please, that works with CD's/DVD's

Note: You guys can "Vaseline" I have earlier used Vaseline or cold cream that has worked.

One more thing I've tried guys is that..

Clean the disc with some "Vaseline" i.e Petroleum jelly ..then create a image from some software like Alcohol, Nero and make sure u "skip read errors"..
