Hi,
I have found that the occassional HD-DVD disk I rip with AnyDVD HD will lock my PC and I have to do a hard reset. I use XP Media Centre with all the service packs and the Xbox drive and latest AnyDVD (6.1.6.0 + same behaviour with the previous 2 versions). At first I thought it was a dirty disk, but when I try re-ripping the disk multiple times it fails at different places (usually 10 - 30% through the rip) even after cleaning the disk where there are no visible significant scratches. I have noticed that the HD-DVDs do get really fine scratches when cleaning but this hasn't stopped other disks that I have used without issues on my machine.
I have had trouble with the following disks:
- Syria (Australian edition)
- Unforgiven (Australian edition)
- Dune (US edition)
Having the machine freeze is a little strange. I would have expected the software to come back with an error message if it could not read the disk, so it is possibly a hardware issue, however it seems to be related to these disks only during ripping as I have no problems with other disks.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Dean
