Creating Image File Error

[Kingsdaughter73]

I have tried multiple times with different home DVD's and this is the error I keep getting.

Your drive can't read the discs.

 

Are they dirty / scratched?

 

Your drive might just not be a very good reader. See if you can read them in a different one.

Thank you for your response.

 

No scratches... the DVD plays well in my pc and even in a 15 year-old dvd player.

Assuming your PC is the one you've tried reading it on (as per the log file), I can guarantee it can't play it well. It might be able to play some of it, but when it gets to the sectors ImgBurn reports the drive can't read, your playback software will start to stutter and skip frames (or possibly give up).

 

As you can see from the Log, ImgBurn has asked the drive to read certain sectors multiple times (default is 20) and the drive has reported a failure each time. There's nothing I (or anyone else) can do to make it read what it can't read (beyond infinite retries and hoping one works).

Also some drives are just picky.  I had a DVD in my collection that one of my drives wouldn't read.  When I replaced the drive later, I tried again and it read it fine.  And my current situation is I have an LG and a Pioneer Blu-Ray drives in my system.  I've come across several discs where the LG errors out trying to read, but the Pioneer reads them fine.

Alright... I understand. Thank you for you help! At least I still have the original VHS and still make a new DVD.
