Can ImgBurn be used for DVD movie readability testing?

[mtosev]

Most programs say that the sector is encrypted and can't continue.

 

thx

IMGburn will not read/rip any commercial dvd's ,it can be used to verify an ISO image that you have on your HD against the burned disc , playability is about media and standalone player compatibility,If IB burns and verifys the disc chances are it will play fine we recommend using good meedia that is Verbatim and Yuden discs for single layer and Verbatim +r DL for dual layer and only Verbatim for dual layer

Can it be used for testing the readability of genuine DVD movies?

[dontasciime]

No.

[polopony]

IMGburn will not read/rip any commercial dvd's because they are encrypted, you'll get the following error message

I just checked 3 dvd's ,The Marine ,Flags of Our Fathers and Idlewild and its the same with all three

 

E 07:05:27 Failed to read Sector 214528 - Read of Scrambled Sector Without Authentication

E 06:58:59 Failed to read Sector 26240 - Read of Scrambled Sector Without Authentication

I think you're a bit confused here ,what you posted is not a log of a verifyed disc just disc info taken from the dvd and that info is not encrypted . To verify a disc you first need to have an ISO image that has no encryption on your hard drive and then in the Verify stage IB checks the ISO against the burned disc for a 1:1 copy. You can check IB's ability to read commercial dvd's for yourself by doing the following .

 

Open IMGburn and put a store bought dvd in your drive and select READ mode and see how far you get

 

 

BTW it can't, won't, and never will read store bought dvd's for legal reasons

No problems. Interesting.

Either it's an unprotected disc or you played it (perhaps automatically via 'autoplay') before loading ImgBurn.

Gonna test some Sony Columbia-Tristar DVDs.

[mtosev]

LOL again no problems. R2 disc Crocodile dundee 3.

[dirio49]

Maybe is your dvds.

because i get errors

 

[mtosev]

Put a R1 DVD and got the error.

[lfcrule1972]

Also it could be that Crocodile Dundee is so old (or crap) that it has no copy protection on it....

[mtosev]

I installed some CSS decryption software like AnyDVD, DVD Region+CSS,...

 

Put the same R1 DVD that I got an error yesterday and no errors.

 

The disc has CSS protection (tested with DVD Region+CSS).

 

Is this 3rd party software have anything to do with ImgBurn reading CSS protection now?

Please stop we get the picture.

As donta said we cannot discuss the circumvention of Copyright protection in the forum.
