ALien vs Predator Requiem help please

[marlster]

Hi,
Could i have some help please. I have (hopefully) uploaded the error message that i get when i try to backup this disc onto the hard drive. It hangs on 1% for ages, then the error appears. I have tried DVD shrink too with which i get a cyclic redundancy check error. I am using AnyDVD version 6.4.5.9 which is set to region code 2, also windows is set to this too. I am using Vista home premium. Any other information I need to supply then please let me know. I have just added the Logfile.
Thanks
Mark:doh:

A FileIO 3 error is a read error. This typically happens due to a bad disc, problematic filters installed (ie packet-writing), or a slowly dying drive.

From your logs:

read sectors failed, sense 3:2:0

read sectors failed, sense 3:2:0

Read errors. You can try the disc in another drive to see if it also has a problem. It's most likely the disc.

You can try scanning the disc for errors with Nero DiscSpeed:

1. Download Nero DiscSpeed (freeware).
2. Extract it to wherever you wish
3. Run the program
4. Select the ScanDisc tab
5. Place the original DVD in your DVD drive
6. Select that drive from the Nero DiscSpeed interface
7. Click Start

Any red spots that show up are read errors.

Check it in another DVD drive. If you encounter the same error I'd exchange the disc for another copy of the movie.

Just keep in mind for the future, "playing" a disc is not any guarantee that Windows can do a file transfer or "read". That's like comparing a dump truck unloading to landing a plane at night in a snow storm. 8)

Lately, the studios are cutting corners on mastering and after all, their mission is that you can play it, not copy it. Something to think about.

It's not going to matter much, as you won't be able to see the movie anyways.

IGN trailer:

Same frame; unmodified frame grab from Unrated Edition standard def DVD:

Not only are the studios idiots in mastering DVDs, sometimes so are the film crew. :disagree:

Yeah, I had serious serious issues with the movie due to it totally sucking plot-wise and it being so dark. I realize that it being dark makes it more scary and dramatic but they went way too far. It was so dark that I feel that I missed most of what actually occurred.

It was simply abysmal.

Edit: Anyway, let's stay on topic. This is a troubleshooting thread.
