Please open the discs with DvdFab or Passkey and see if that works ok.
Also, could you tell us the brand of the blanks? Thanks

[thisizbrian]

dvdfab doesnt read the disc.

optical quantum blanks

[thisizbrian]

so any ideas? or should i give up on trying to make protected discs as they are just coasters.

Hi thisizbrian,

Please try DVDFab 8.0.8.8 Beta at

http://www.dvdfab.com/mlink/download.php?g=DVDFAB_QT

to make protected discs to see the result.

And it seems like this user DJuanHouston (http://forum.dvdfab.com/showthread.php?p=76031) encountered the same error 800299A1 as yours.

Normally, bad discs are created when the reading process is not perfect; ie. there is a sector or a couple of them that don't read correctly, leading to incorrect decryption and incorrect re-encryption. Protected discs are more *sensitive* to reading errors.

I would suggest you to try with a BD-RE first and see how that goes. If you look in the log you'll see a warning there: it's the Pioneer drives that have some weird state sometimes and refuse to work properly. In my opinion it's bad implementation of the standard on Pioneer's behalf because it refuses a command that should be accepted according to aacs standard. Anyway, that's tech talk. I'll contact Fengtao to try to find a way to fail-proof better the process of making protected backups.

You were suggested to update to latest version simply because in the logs it was 8083, which is older than current 8085official/8088beta. I noticed it but I assumed that you made the discs when only 8083 was available.

So, please update to latest and try with a BD-RE.

[thisizbrian]

ok that makes sense with the read error. thanks.

[DiabloZoe]

ok that makes sense with the read error. thanks.

Also I think this was brought up and they added a fix for the Losers check the official updates and the beta logs one of them has the information! Also which PS3 do you have newer or older? Picking up some BDRE is the best advice.
