Fluke? Who knows? If the disc is damaged, I suppose anything is possible; one program may open it, and another may not.
Anydvd and Anydvd HD share the exact same executable file, and Anydvd 6.1.3.2 is also Anydvd HD 6.1.3.2 (this was the "one immediately before" 6.1.3.3); the difference is the license key. The more descriptions you give the more I'm convinced your discs are damaged, especially if this is the only title you're having problems with (other than The Queen).
Sorry, it has taken me awhile to get back to replying. The UPC is the same as mine. However, both my discs are CSS protected and Region 1 / not region free. This does set off alarm bells. I took a look on what was selling on Ebay and they all appeared to show pictures of regular cases. Mine came in that awful thick case (about 1 1/2 size larger than normal, the front folds out and the back folds out. This is an original storebought.
Even More Confused OK, mine is in a DVD case with a 2cm spine....about the size of the old four-way cases, no fold outs, just the booklet inside. I think it's time to say: 1. I was done 2. I was done with damaged discs! This is about to be a mute point, as a friend has offered to sell me his R2 Collectors Edition. It's still in the original box that looks like a book, and it still has the little book inside that came with it....and it's in mint condition....played once. This means that the kids can have the R1's (since they're probably not real anyway) and I can put the R2 away on the shelf with the rest of the collection. (I back up so the kids can't damage originals....sad eh? That's why I always put the ROM content back on so they can enjoy that too) I really want to thank you guys for all your help, but I think it's time to give it up, and bite the bullet and all that good stuff. Cheers.:clap: :clap: :clap:
Another One I've got a (used rental) Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs DVD that is giving CRC error when I'm just trying to drag the VIDEO_TS folder to a hard-drive.

Webslinger, many of my dvds were purchased from rental stores as previously viewed. In fact this can be an excellent way of increasing one's collection. Jebelar, I will give you the benefit of the doubt. Try cleaning the disc.
I appreciate what you're saying. However, in this instance that needs to be stated clearly to me (for legal reasons that may not apply to everyone).
"Use rental" I did clarify. When I said "used rental" I meant that it is one of those ones you buy in the bin "pre-owned" at the rental store. They are pretty abused, so probably just damage, but just wanted to post the info in case it twigged you onto something.
O.k., thank you. CRC errors usually indicates a read error of some sort, and in your case visit here Unfortunately, your disc is either dirty or (more likely) damaged and needs to be either cleaned, repaired, or exchanged. Simply because a disc plays fine, doesn't mean it is fine.
jabelar, if you are able to, you could try a different drive to read. I have found that some drives are more tolerant of errors than others. Good Luck.
