I got a DVD, never used with cellophane intact, produced in 1993 on ebay. I thought maybe, since I didn’t get a DRM warning, it predated DRM, and I could just copy it to my hard drive, so I did. Both the copy and the DVD are now corrupted and unplayable. I want to fix the DVD then rip it to my hard drive. Googling gives plenty of suggestions for ripping but none for fixing. Please help if you can. Thanks.
Does it play on standard DVD players? Is it a pressed copy (silver) or burned (typically purple)?
It sounds like the encryption section has degraded and can’t be read reliably.
It’s silver. I’ve got 3 optical drives and no standard DVD player.
What are you using to rip? I think DVD Decrypter lists the encryption found
