When trying to rip this HD-DVD (US version)....I get this: the disc is clean and not scratched. Here is the AnyDVD status screen: Summary for drive H: (AnyDVD 6.1.4.5) TOSHIBA DVD/HDX807616 MC08 10/03/06 Drive (Hardware) Region: 0 (not set!) Media is a HD DVD. Booktype: hd-dvd (version 3), Layers: 2 (opposite) Size of first Layer: 4956160 sectors (9680 MBytes) Total size: 9912320 sectors (19360 MBytes) Video HD DVD label: CHILDRENOFMEN Media is AACS protected! Removed AACS copy protection! A few other notes: It is a double sided DVD/ HD-DVD combo. If it helps, around the perimeter of the disc are these numbers: (323653) 0300332000542R1 01 and (323654) 0300332000542R1 01 and sorry if this has been discussed before...I couldn't find a thread about it. Thanks.
I had this exact problem with the Queen in Bluray, the disc was in perfect condition, however, when i tried getting another copy of the disc, it worked perfectly. As for Children of Men in HD, I have backuped this copy successfully.
There have been numerous reports of bad pressings of Children of Men HD DVD. Universal has announced a disc replacement program. See here for more details: http://hddvd.highdefdigest.com/news...Issues_Announces_Disc_Replacement_Program/603 Alternatively, you could try "boiling" the disc, i.e. running it under hot water for a while. Honestly; some people have written on forums about how that fixed their playback problems. Personally I wouldn't try it, though
I picked up another disc and it works now... well I should say, it's copying anyways, hopefully no errors ...
