i have a dvd with data that can't be copied over to the HD because of CRC problems. i can however view it. i have a philips dvd player that plays movie files on dvd/cd etc.

i was thinking i would have it play on the dvd player and then capture it with my tv tuner card.

i can capture the video just fine but no sound, any suggestions on what i can do to capture sound? there's no rca-audio in for it.

this is a win-tv-go tv tuner card.

it only has a composite, a line-out, and a tv cable/antenna.

i was thinking i'd just put the dvd into the tv and then have a cable run from the tv into the tv tuner, but that'll really mess up the quality.

if the dvd has crc problems, does it skip when you play it on the phillips? (it does on my dvd player)
the only suggestion I make is set dvd decrypter (or whatever you use) to 0 or 1 hardware retries and then what it does is skip over the portion of data that is bad..... the video will be complete except for the missing seconds that are no longer readable

also try lowering the rip speed, sometimes helps.... and using your dvd burner to read it instead of a plain dvd reader if you have one

i haven't had the chance to see it all on the dvd player, but others with crc problems does skip. in fact they freeze and then resume where it's readable. so it would be bad to record it that way.

thanks for the tip on dvd decrypter though. but isnt that just for dvd movies? what about dvd datas? can it extract things from dvd datas and skip the bits of a file that are corrupted?

DVD data isn't decrypted by DVD Decrpyter, as it's not encrypted in the first place. I dunno what to tell you there.

However, DVD Decrypter gets around CRC problems for me. I had a copy of Paycheck that freaked out for about 15 seconds in one scene, but after decrypting it the thing played fine.

actually i was using dvd shrink one time and it encountered a crc problem and aborted right away, so i tried to extract the files with dvd decrypter and then encode it with dvd shrink from the HD, but long story short, dvd decrypter didnt allow me to extract the files either cuz of the crc problem. but then again i never fixed the settings to what xsilver suggested. so i will try it in the future. as for this, i guess i dont have much of a choice.

thanks.

Err, I guess that thread was a little older than this one, but contains the same info.

Here is the new one

You're getting the CRC error due to updated copy protection on the DVD.

this isn't about dvd movies, it's about dvd data, i put movie clips on an ISO dvd, and i think the crc error is because some bits were screwed over during the time i've had the dvd.
