How so? I've never had any trouble with it

I can't name the individual files.. just the "discname 01.mkv" name... also i dislike the gui and usability...

I did not even came to the point to test how it does its work, because I already stopped at the how to work with it, because it was plain not the thing I want and need...

Ok. If I copy the folders, there won't be any issues burning a disc from them at a later date? The DVD-R is just beginning to go bad and only my PC drive can read it at this point.

Almost every burning tool can create a video DVD from a video DVD folder...

Only problem if you got some kind of copy protection...

If your tool cannot.. You can copy the video DVD folder to your hard drive, and use DVDShrink to create an iso...

If DVD-R has some copy protection (which I doubt, as I think you're talking about burned DVDs), just use DVDFab (or DVDFab Passthrough), you'll be able to copy then unprotected files off DVD.

Ok! Thanks all for the info. Still scratching my head as to why one disc gave me no problems and the other did. Both were made with the same recorder and I had not encountered this issue before.

Were the discs the same make? Could be a compatibility problem.

Different brand names, but I think both are Tiayo Yuden made?

I bought a huge stash of Fuji brand when several stores blew them out on clearance and never had problems until now. Discs that are going bad were all recorded in the same month, so I suspect one bad batch.

Silverwook ... RoadKil's Unstoppable Copier ... I just found it yesterday and it did an amazing job with a very difficult disc but it handled it smoothly.

What a name! I'll take a look at it, thanks!

Imgburn was able to read past any errors that made the discs freeze up in all my players. It just refuses to make an image file from what it thinks is a "multisession disc". These discs were finalized when I made them.

So I have no idea what's it choking on.

FixVTS might help you out.

Was able to just copy the folders to my HD.

DVD-R can't have CSS encryption. Well technically you can copy the encrypted files of course, but the decryption keys are stored in a sector that only exists on pressed discs and can't be put on any DVD+/-R.

Regarding DTS-HD Master Audio... is there any software out there that can encode audio tracks in that codec?
