bad blocks, anydvd

[minorgeek]

two questions:

does img burn have any support for bad blocks encountered on the dvd?

it gives three buttons:  cancel cancels the entire operation (e.g., copy disk).  

     try again tries again (once?  60 times?) 

     continue seems to be the same as try again.  i'd expect it to skip the bad block and continue.  can i tell imgburn to do that?  for the data for the missing block, make it zero or use the previous or following block and copy.  for video it's not a big issue.  (for data it is.)

now each time i click, it retries 60 times, all failing.  seems to be no way to move fwd.

should one bad block, or a few, cause the copy to completely fail?

 

anydvd purports to remove copy protection in real time access to the dvd.  it runs in background.

it claims that anyone accessing the disc will see no copy protection.

is that true for imgburn?  i imagine there are high level and lower level intertfaces

and it might depend which interface is used.  or not?

 

thanks!

By default, it retries 20 times when it encounters an unreadable sector.

 

Try again tries again

Continue skips to the next sector

Cancel cancels the entire read operation

 

Your log shows you attempting to read a CDROM. AnyDVD is for movies, so I'm not sure why you think it would be able to help you with that disc?

Apologies if I missed something, you posted the entire log rather than just the bit where you were having a problem.
