decrypting with dvd decrypter trouble

[Annabelle 0]

I have had the dvd decrypter for over a year without any incident. i use it strictly for decrypting & nothign else. i use it as a prelude to dvd shrink, then clone dvd.

 

in the past few days i have noticed that the majority of the dvds that i have been attempting to back up have been stalling at around the 50% mark. I looked up how to handle the situation at numerous sites, but nothing has worked. i have attempted to change the settings, uninstalled/reinstalled, ect to no avail. its odd because some disks work while others do not. and they all go fine until around the 50-52% of the decrpting process.

 

when it stalls i get a big screen that says I/O error. Further down it says Invalid Field in the CDB. when this occurs i continue to hit retry retry retry followed continously by ignore ingore ignore until it retries on its own. i read at one place that if it keeps retrying it will eventually work. i have been up to 1000+ retries while it remains stalled. anyway, where is a log of a typical dvd decrypting failure. i hope somebody here will be able to lend some assistance to this amateur. thanks.

In what condition are the discs that don't work? Are they clean or all scratched up or dirty?

[Annabelle 0]

they are in near mint condition.

Try copying it straight from DVD Shrink. If that doesn't work (Sopranos S2, for example, should; it's old enough that Shrink should have the encryption codes for it), I'd wonder if it's a problem with your drive itself.
