acmeacres Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Even now, Paramount seems to use the blank sector mapping to monkey wrench a helpless burn of an ISO file onto a DL disc. I've read several posts and discussions in various reaches of Google's green Earth about this issue - some of which Lightning himself has been involved as early as 2003. The most recent posts I've found in other forums is to use PGC Edit to re-author the files to eliminate the blank sectors on the disc, because it is mapping to those sectors in order to play correctly. (The DVD is lying when it goes to blue screen, saying "This player is incompatible with the region marking of this disc". If it couldn't play the disc because of an authentic region issue, I wouldn't see advertisings and FBI warnings and the DVD's main menu prior to the blue screen.) Since the PGC Edit software appears to be a lengthy and confusing process for the common ripper, I want to ask if there is a method for using IMGBURN to fix this issue. I see options in the IMGBURN software to indicate IFO Layer Break Information. Is the solution a simple series of steps tied to this IFO Layer Break indication? I don't see any clearly marked options in any of these ripping/burning solutions to indicate when to include blank sectors or re-author the disc to eliminate their importance, whether DVD Decrypter, AnyDVD, Nero Burning ROM, DVD Fab, etc. I have a feeling that IMGBURN may have some configurable options to solve this issue, but I just don't know the right steps.

blutach Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Sorry, ImgBurn has nothing to do with ripping/re-authoring protected DVDs (long way of answering "no" to your question) and we are not the sort of site that gives advice on ripping - particularly DVDs with advanced protection. If you have a problem burning a disc with ImgBurn, by all means, ask a question (posting a log in the process). But please do not ask us to help you back up copyrighted content. You need to start off the burning with "a good rip". As for layer break positioning, there's a guide on that. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
