I just went over to a buddies house tonight to help him out with his first computer. Installing hardware, windows and a good amount of applications.
His main goal is to start burning dvds like there is no tomorrow. But I ran into a few problems that I have never seen before with dvd shrink.
first off, in order to rip a dvd with shrink, we could only use his dvd r/w drive to do so. the dvd rom drive would get encryption errors and not even budge.
so we ran the dvd past dvd decrypter. Then encoded it in shrink and used shrink to burn the dvd with nero. All of which are the latest versions.
So I pop the dvd into two of his dvd players and within mins or so, i start to see artifacts. BIG TIME. I then pop the dvd into his computer with power dvd 5 and the application just locks up.
So I then decrypt, encode and burn a different dvd movie with dvd shrink, bypassing dvd decrypter. I do this with his dvdrw drive.
I then put it in his dvd players and get the same freakin shiznit.
The dvdrw drive that he has is this... http://www.netaffilia.com/ad/electronics/frys/i/2004/12/15/7352.html
His computer is http://www.netaffilia.com/ad/electronics/frys/i/2004/12/15/7311.html
with an extra 512mb ddr and a geforce ddr 32mb.
His dvd rom drive is a ASUS DVD-E616P2.
And the media that we used was some 8x maxell DVD-R crap.
If anyone has any ideas about what to do now, let me know. I will try burning a few more dvds tomorrow on his comp using ritech ridata this time. Hopefully all goes well and its just a problem with the media. If not it will be fun tracking down the problem if no one else has yet experienced this specific problem.
Later!
