New Protection?

[Jack Pot]

I recently encountered problems backing up 2 DVD's.
The movies are "The Missing" and "Gothica" , both from Col.Tristar, both red DVD's.
I gots a Pioneer Reader and a Philips Burner, both drives cant read the same VTS file.
I tried to backup my DVD's using anyDVD, DVDxcopyPlatinum, and DVD Decrypter...they all get stuck on read errors on the same VTS.
The problem only occurs on these releases...I can backup all the other movies so far...
Any suggestions?

OK, already for people who dont do searches. Im gonna stick this. There is a new protection. BUT it has been beaten by the latest version of ANYDVD at least from v3.9.2.1 and up.


I have Gothika and had no problems with it before I updated to the newer versions of Anydvd. I dont know about the other movie you have.

I been using ANYDVD 2.0.0.4...I will upgrade and try again, thanks

I own both of these movie's and backed both up with dvd decrypter and dvd2one. Is this new protection limited to the UK only??

[TylerDurden]

Weve got it too Warlock. I dont keep up with DVDDecrypter so Im not sure if the newer versions can rip these movies as well.

what exactly do you mean by red dvds? and the bottoms red or is the protection called red or something?

[OldCoot]

I used DVDDecripter 3.5.1.0 and Instant Copy 8 to do "The Missing". No problems. Same as any other movie.
Is this problem a European PAL version thing?

[TylerDurden]

Supposedly its NTSC and PAL. Ive seen users from both sides of the globe complain about it. But all they have to do is update their programs and it should be fine. At least until different variations of this protection come out.

To answer a prev. Question: Both DVDs are red (color) and some drives have problems with that, but not mine.
Anyways I updated both, AnyDVD and DVDDecrypter (3.5.1.0).
I was able to backup the movie "The Missing" which is an older release.
Gothika still wont work.
I used AnyDVD in the background and got all files onto the HDD, however DVDShrink 3.2 and Nero 6.3 cant compress the files onto a DVD.
Nero just crashes and so does DVD2One. DVDShrink asks for a VTS file thats not even on the original DVD ( Vts_07_6.vob).
Nero wont access the DVD at all despite AnyDVD running.

I think you may have a bad original. You may have to get another. Ive had bad originals before too.

Wow, i thought i was the only one having this problem. After i successfully copied the 1st disc using DVDshrink, i get that same "servo" error msg on the 2nd disc. I then tried using AnyDVD but got a similar error msg. If you say it works with Win98 then i guess that's my only alternative for now... ugh, that means i have to dig out one of my old drives and install Win98 just to burn this particular disc.. what a drag! lol.
But what i want to know is, if this is in fact a "new" copy protection on the disc, then how come it's only on disc 2? I've successfully copied all the others (discs 1,3,4,5,6) but not disc 2. WEIRD!

But thanx for your post!

@squarepants420: You revived a 1,5 years old thread !!!
If you have problems copying DVD-Movies, simply use the newest version AnyDVD (by Slysoft).

Yes, i realized i resurrected an old thread, however i'm just now copying Band of Brothers because i haven't seen it yet.. so i'm borrowing my friend's Box set after recommendations to see it.

And i am using the latest version of AnyDVD (ver. 6.1.4.3) and still no success. Any other alternatives that you know of?... if so, please share the info. Thanx

i'm not stealing it. he wanted a backup copy for himself because most of his DVDs get scratched.
I'm not keeping the copies, they're his copies.

Chill out.
