I am trying to rip my Dexter DVDs in zune format and everytime I try the FPS drops to 0.00. I have tried to rip to my hard drive and it keeps failing. What can I do to copy these? They are the only DVDs I am not able to copy for my Zune.

[SIZE=3]Sounds like the curse of the WMV. Sometimes you just canât make a WMV, itâs a MS thing. Try the âZUNE h.264 aacâ selection in the drop down at the bottom and see if that works for you.[/SIZE]

I tried that.. It has to be the disc.. Ion't know if there is a way around it.. I dont get an error when I tr to copy it or anything it just starts at like 0.20 FPS and then goes quickly down to 0.00 FPS.. The other guy I read abut was trying to rip to apple tv.. so it has to be the Dexter DVDs.. It's not just the 1st season.. all 3 I try do the same. Its the only on I have an issue with.

[SIZE=3]Are you saying that you tried âDVD to DVDâ to rip the main movie to the HDD and it failed? Can you post the logs from your failed attempt?[/SIZE]

yeah I tried that too.. should I rip the entire DVD menues, etc. and all? How do I view the log? Sorry I haven't had to go in depth with this software cause it has alwys worked so well..

19:33:04: Analyzing of DVD started 19:33:04: Analyzing of DVD completed successfully 19:33:04: Copy process started 19:42:44: Task_1 failed! Error=400()

Try Disabling PathPlayer if it's on an on if it's off.

it was on and I changed it to "on when necessary" or whatever the setting was I will try off all together.. Should I try DVD to Mobile again or DVD to DVD?

Don't use on when necessary, either on or off. Try DVD to DVD to the HDD first then make your Zune file from that folder. You may have a bad disk there, remember just because it will play in the set top player does not mean it will backup, two different procedures.

so from there I just use DVD to Mobile from that main disc? Or do I use File to Mobile?

If it rips to the HDD ok then use DVD to Mobile and select the folder on the HDD as the source for your Zune file. Don't use the disk at all after you rip it to the hard drive.

Dexter DVD Issues.. (I see others have problem too)

xxscottx4132xx

will do thanks buddy.. ill keep you posted afterward..

xxscottx4132xx

so I am supposed to select DVD to DVD, and use Main Movie right? When it copies the VTS/VOB files to the hd does it stay encrypted?

xxscottx4132xx

yeah it keeps doing the same thing. it gets almost to the very end then it just says "Process Failed"

xxscottx4132xx

also should I have "check for multiple set of BOVs" checked or unchecked?

Did you scan the disk with Nero CD/DVD Speed?

xxscottx4132xx

I wasn't able to download it.. I played it and it works fine no skips at all..

xxscottx4132xx

I will try downloading it again tonight.. I think its the internet here at work..

400 DVD_Error_TrancoderError

This is the error code i get I am getting ready to run the NERO to see if there are any problems with the disc.

GregiBoy

Are you selecting DVD9? The error is a transcode error and there should be no transcoding going on if you are not compressing it.

[SIZE=3]Saying âTranscode Errorâ is vague is an understatement! There are a multitude of reasons for that error. He is not having issue with any other disk so we are trying to eliminate the disk as a cause, doesn't appear to be hardware related. Unless he is running out of HDD space. He says that he is using DVD-9. [/SIZE]

xxscottx4132xx

ok I finally scanned it with NERO and it says 100% bad disc but thats not possible its been used twice not counting trying to rip it.. it plays flawlessly on my laptop, desktop, xbox, and dvd player so it cant be 100% bad disc.. and if you look at the back really close you cant even see a slight glimpse of a possible imperfection..

GregiBoy

Niner.

Sorry if I am confused here but the OP is definitely not providing complete concise info.

xxscottx4132xx

Yeah I know its not giving me much information.. the logs arent very in depth either.. could it just be the coding of the disc or something? It's only the Dexter series I have these issues with.. every other DVD goes through perfect I have never encountered as much as an error.. I am running DVD9, I have plenty of HDD space..

90312

I also aske him to be a little more specific.

Scott, what CD/DVD Speed is telling you is simply the disk will not backup. Players are much more tolerant of errors, it will just skip over them and you might notice a micro freeze and pay no attention to it. A transcoder will just choke on on the same error. I think you need to trade this one in if you can, or forget it and move on bud.

xxscottx4132xx

well I have tried it with all the discs in the dexter series 1,2, and 3.. I think you're right.. just move on..

xxscottx4132xx

after the error when I go into the files I see some of the video files, they wont play and there are no audio files copied to the hard disc.. I wish I could give more info but its just not giving me any info..

90312

You're losing me again Scott? Are you saying you have successfully ripped this disk before?

xxscottx4132xx

no ive never successfully ripped any of the dexter series dvds.. season 1 2 or 3 but every other dvd i have ever ripped has been ripped flawlessly not even an error code or glitch.. So it's just odd these ones dont work.. the discs play great..

90312

Try cleaning the disk, it doesn't matter if you can't see anything, the laser can see things you can't or be reflected by some film on the disk. Try some Windex and a microfiber cloth in tiny little circles, don't go in big circles around the disk. Then try again.

Dexter Season 3 won't rip to iPod

Hi there,

This is my first post, so please excuse me if I'm not providing enough information. I read through the previous posts, and am also encountering problems when ripping Dexter, but to iPod. I had no problems with the first 2 seasons, and season 3 is hit and miss. I was able to get 2/3 epsiodes off the first disc, 4/4 on the second and 0/4 on the third. I've tried ripping from the DVD as well as ripping the files to my hard drive and going that route.

The encoding starts at about 0.16 fbs and slowly works its way down to 0.00 fbs. I never get an error message because it just keeps running even though nothing is happening. I've even tried copying DVD to DVD and then using the newly created DVD to rip to Mobile.

Any thoughts? Do I just need to give up?

Thanks in advance! :)
