No matter what BR I copy, they stop at 11.64% read and sit for hours

[bobmitch]

OK...some updated info. I can copy DVD's 100% of the time and Blu Ray 0% of the time. DVD's copy fine with or without the help of CUDA. Blu Ray, no success. When I rip to the HDD, It will read to 100%. When I go to shrink it down to fit BD25, it always stops at 11.7 or 11.8% and the program seems to go dormant. That is with both versions 9.0.1.2 and 8.2.2.2, using CUDA and without CUDA. What more info can I take a shot at?

[bobmitch]

OK...new Nvidia Drivers 310.70 WHQL

First trial...CUDA enabled with 9.0.1.2 Copy Failed Capture 1, shows the program doing the copy at full rip speed. Capture 2, shows 10.76% completion. Notice in the bottom left hand corner, the rip speed no longer shows and the task time remaining drops to 0.

Here is the log

bobmitch you're not overclocking your processor(s) are you?

bobmitch you're not overclocking your processor(s) are you?

In order to run my memory at 1866, I set to XPS and the board locks my processor speed at 3.9 GHZ, my turbo speed. In the past, with Windows 7...this never caused this issue...what are you thinking?

[90312]

Just that I've seen others have issues, unpredictable results with OC'd CPUs. Can you back it off just for a test?

[bobmitch]

OK...Nvidia 310.70 WHQL and CUDA turned off. Capture 3 shows rip at full speed. Capture 4 shows failure...notice lower left hand corner, no read speed and task time left at 0. Obviously something is up.

OK...Processor at 3.5 GHZ (i7 3770K), my memory at 1333...so nothing is clocked beyond basic.

Capture 5 shows full read speed. Capture 6 shows the failure...No read speed detected and task time left 0

I just can't reproduce it, I've tried several different discs all different ways and it just works for me. I have the same processor with an AMD graphics card turned off.

[bobmitch]

Go figure. I never tried v9 on Windows 7. On Win 7, 8.0.1.3 was the version that worked perfectly. Once I went to Windows 8, everything went south...However, what I don't get...I can make backup copies of any DVD I want...no failure there. I can rip Blu Ray to the HDD as long as in BD50 mode...but once I try to shrink down to BD25...I get all this...

I am baffled as well. I do see where others have had issues with 8.2.2.2, just like mine...read speed drops to 0 and nothing happens after that.

I have a few blu rays that are already smaller than BD25, let me try one...

OK...here we go...look at the captures. IF the Blu Ray is smaller than BD25, then it copies. It's when the program has to compress the files down to fit BD25. Could the setting for BD25 be off in some way? I have been able to shrink down DVD's that are HUGE down to DVD5...example "The Green Mile" which movie only is 9 GB...shrinks down with 9.0.1.2 perfectly. I get the difference between DVD and Blu Ray...but something isn't translating in my system to shrink them...

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Are my posts making better sense??

I may have misled you a bit, I'm using W7x64 for BR discs. My laptop is W8 no Blu-Ray drive installed and I'm just not fond enough of W8 to change my main desktop to it. Sorry if I led you down the wrong path I should have read your posts more closely.

[bobmitch]

No harm! I wasn't too "sure" about Windows 8 until I installed it. Because I built my new system in the summer...I got the upgrade for $15, so why not try it. I actually like a lot of it. Runs well...less memory intensive. Granted, I have 16 GB of memory...so in Win 7, bootup showed 12% memory used. On bootup in Win 8, I see 8%. It seems to utilize memory a bit better. Performance wise...not a major difference either way. The ONLY app that has issues, believe it or not, is DVDFab. For email, I have always been a big Eudora fan. Still using 7.1.0.9 from 2005, and it works well in Win 8. I even have a music scheduling program for radio stations (my job-consulting and looking over what some stations play)...and it is DOS based...works great. I just don't get the problem with Blu Ray copy (when the BR is greater in size and has to be shrunk to fit)...DVD works fine...Ugh!

Anny emails me from tech support...I am hopeful that I can get her to read this thread...with all the logs and screen shots...hopefully it will help. I finally figured out why my logs were disappearing...Ccleaner was deleting them. So I had to go into configuration and tell it to leave DVDFab alone...

I hope this can get resolved...I know there are others like me out there...

Hi bobmitch
You have a very odd problem.
Have you tried uninstalling your drives, restarting your computer and let windows reinstall the drivers, or even leaving just 1 drive connected with no cables attached to the others?

Also what do you have for a power supply?
You say you can copy a disc to your HDD as BD-50, but the compressing the disc is failing, maybe you do not have enough power is something I guessing.

I have a Corsair HX850 and have had for about a year and a half now. The problem isn't with the drives...I can copy to the HDD with no problems in BD50 mode. My main OS drive, where DVDFab caches and resides is a Samsung 830 series 256 GB SSD with 200 GB free. Before switching over to Windows 8, older versions of DVDFab worked fine...now, no! My secondary HDD is a 7200 rpm Hitachi with 32 MB of Cache. I don't really think my hardware is the problem. I think that there is something with the way DVDFab works and Windows 8.

[90312]

I ripped a BR full disk and shuttled it over to the Windows 8 laptop and am compressing it now. It's up to 17% and humming along at a snail's pace, its a 1.6GHz dual core so this going to take an age to complete, if it does? I'll let you know.
