I bought flightplan perowned from blockbusters… It wont play on my dvd player, but will in the playstation…so i want to burn it on a blank, so I can watch it on my standalone…
Im using dvd shrink… and im usind re author, because the extras are very long… but when It goes to encoding… it says time raining… 47 hours 57 mins…lol, then It says… dvd shrink encountered an error and cannot continue… then summat about cyclic redundant error…
anyone shed any light?

Do you’ve tried to rip it with another tool like dvdfabdecrypter or anydvd? Otherwise it could be you’ve a bad disc.
Hi Yes it prob is bad disc… Its quite scratched… but it play great in ps2… ive also been trying to do the same with another film… but dvd shrink took an hour, and was only half way thru encoding… so I checked dma… and im in PIO again…so Im gonna change that… but I think shrink may have a problem… and also I think something is wrong with nero… I put a film thru shrink last night… it took about half an hour… I didnt put menus… but I used re author… and it gone in my hard drive under 5 different vob files…, and when I try to recode them to burn… it cant find the file… im not really any good at this sort of thing just finding my feet… Is there a proper procedure to follow?
Caz
Like i said before i’d try some other tools to rip them. But ripping speed could be slower if the disc is scratched, anyways i’d enable dma for your drives.
Most likely it is a bad disc, however there may also be copy protections on the disc which may only be overcome by anydvd, or a similar program.
You can try ripping with DVD decryptor and increase the read retries and/or enabling ‘ignore errors’.
When you are playing a disc, you only accessing some parts of some of the files.
When you are ripping (or using dvdshrink), you are accessing all parts of all of the files.
You can try using stream processing for just the main feature film using DVD decryptor & rip them to the HD, then process them using DVDShrink (if necessary).
I agree with debro. Cyclic redundantcy errors can be caused by scratched or unreadable discs or some forms of copy protection.
If the disk is scratched it may still be recoverable. Take it to you nearest dvd rental shop and ask them if they have a dvd polishing machine. If so, ask them to polish the disk. They may charge you a small fee but it’s worth it. Many of my disks with CRC errors have been repaired this way. (I’d like a dollar for every time I’ve given this advice…I’d be rich!). 
Or you can buy some polish paste it helps sometimes and you’ve it for other problematic discs.
Doesn’t Blockbuster have a guarantee on their previously viewed movies? I’m pretty sure they do. Take it back to them and 1) Have them replace it, or 2) Have them fix it or 3) Refund your money.
thanks for your great advice… I was messing about with it all day yesterday… I downloaded anydvd, and clonedvd2… I just put it through clone2, and it recoreded the whole thing in half an hour, including all the extras… no errors came up at all, and I can watch it in my standalone too!!!
I love the dvdclone2… very easy to use for a newbieim defo gonna buy it when my free trail runs out…
thanks again

hi, figured since i have the CRC problem too so i’m posting it here in the same thread.
i have a BenQ DW800A for about 2 yrs now. About a month ago i started noticing that some of the DVD+Rs that i burned started having CRC errors when i try to copy the data back out from the dics. the error reads as:
Error copying file or folder, Cannot copy xxxxxxxx: Data error (Cyclic redundancy check)
the disc is in top condition, no scratch, kept in cool dark place, with no visible problems on the dye layer. the problem occurs on both newly burned dvds and some older dvds.
Currently ALL the new dvds that i burn using this burner will produce such problems. the media that i’m using is TDK DVD+R 8x made in Taiwan (CMC MAG E01). I have also tried other medias (Optodisc OR8, Daxon AZ2, MCC03(genuine)) but to no success. Firmware for the burner is up to date (B3C7). i usually burn at speed of 4x and use only up to 80% of the disc space, so over burning is not the issue. I didn’t even manage to burn more than 60 dvdr using it. It’s definitely not some protection thing because i’m backup-ing my own data from the computer.
Anybody know what is wrong with my burner? Could it be a sofware problem? Or could it be that my burner is just dying?
Help Please??
I’d suggest that if it’s happening on new & old, either you are using very cheap media now, or more likely that your burner isn’t reading like it used to.
Have you got another drive you can test your DVD’s in?
yes, i got another drive, liteon sohw1630s. this drive can read some of the older burned disc but all newly burned dvdr by the BenQ DW800A burner will give the same CRC prob when i pop it into the liteon drive. i don’t consider CMC, and MCC cheap medias. the liteon drive can burn all the medias (CMC, MCC, DAXON, OPTODISC) i mentioned in the previous post without any problems.
however, both drives are located in different comps… so i was wondering whether it’s the drive or the comp…
Daxon is cheap media.
CMC & OPTODISC are relatively ok.
MCC is a great media.
If you have a second PC, switch the suspect drive into the other PC & try burning something. You’ll find out very quickly what the problem is.
Also, if you have nero, the nero->toolkit->infotool can tell everyone very quickly what you have installed, lower level filters & etc which may cause issues.
Sticking them between [ code ] &
tags *DELETE YOUR SERIAL from the log* will do this:
very large log here
.
It is not uncommon for software conflicts to cause issues like this.[B]to debro:[/B]
unfortunately, my second pc (with the liteon drive) just died last week. but i’ll take the BenQ drive out and probably try it out at my friend’s PC this weekend.
in the mean while the log file from nero infotool is as following:

i do hope that it is a software problem… 
thanz in advance anyway
hmm, stupid question: do dvd+rw drives deteorates over time? I know the medias does but…
i just want my drive to work like it used to…
Yes, they do. Eventually the drive bearings wear out and create speed variations and wobbles in the disk whilst it’s turning, creating CR errors and general read / write errors. When this happens it’s time for the bin!
[B]to stroppy:[/B]
i was afraid of the yes answer for that question. i’ll try out the drive in my friend’s comp this weekend and if it still burns disc with CR errors, then i guess it’s retirement for that drive 
… thanz for the reply
You could clean the drive, but usually crc errors appear due to poor ide cables or poor media.
err…how do u clean a drive? never done it before. some advice and procedures on it would be greatly appriciated…
