3.5 gb in and then read errors?

[Adamsdaddy]

How can you tell whether the error is artificial or just one of the many scratches placed on the DVD by my 3 year old?

 

Just seems odd that if it were artificial that it wouldn't have started until 3.5 gbs into the READ...

 

Love the program, just donated.

try cleaning disc, or try it in another dvd reader.

I spit on it and then wiped it clean. Lunch was an hour ago so the likelihood of extra particles should be minimal.

 

I may try copying over the files one at a time to the harddrive and then write them back. Though the first time I tried doing that ImgBurn (not the user of course) made me a coaster with a 14 kb file on it.

 

The Read & then Write is much more idiot friendly.

I think I'd bet on the scratches put there by the three yr old ,it can also be that the disc is crap media and over time has become unreadable you could try to polish out the scratches using toothpaste and a really soft cloth or use isopropyl alcahol to clean the disc
