The effects of the chemical haze is different on different drives. Cleaning didn't seem to make a difference, but changing to a different drive made the problem go away.
#WINDOWS BLU RAY PLAYER FAILED TO READ DISK WINDOWS#
4 of 5 disks readable the 5th, which was closest to the packaging, was unreadable to the point that Windows didn't recognize that there was a disk in the drive. I've not had to resort to other chemicals.Įdit : Got a disk set today that is so new it won't be released until 12/10. This is especially true if the disk has been on the store shelf for a while - the example above was from a disk set that was so new it isn't supposed to be released until next week, and there was no issue with ripping the BDs But I have had to clean others that were purchased several months after their initial release.Ī damp, soft cloth (cotton or microfiber) will usually clean it off. The chemicals those sucker marks are formed in have a tendency to migrate to the disks, and can interfere with the laser. Additionally, if you feel the need to post about a rip error on the forum, please include the ENTIRE error report from the "conversion screen" without this, it will be difficult for a forum member to provide accurate guidance.įinally got around to taking a picture of the symptoms of chemical haze: Should this not work or you need further assistance, please follow the help provided here: /faq/item/8. This should answer the majority of the “my disc failed to rip” questions and, hopefully, provide a resolution. Also, if you are using an external drive, use one with an external power supply, not one powered by USB. No two drives are exactly alike so where one may fail to rip, another has no problems. Please note that it is not uncommon for you to need to replace a disc more than once discs are produced in large batches so if a mastering error is laid down on one disc, it makes sense that it could be there on all discs from that batch.ģ. Mastering and manufacturing errors do occur and these will prevent successful rips. Just because a disc “looks” perfect doesn’t mean that it IS perfect. New discs often have a hazy coating that can prevent ripping, and used/rental discs can have dirt and fingerprints.Ģ. Mild non-abrasive soap and water can also be tried. If you experience one of these problems, here are some recommended courses of action:ġ. Standalone disc players will skip over problematic areas on a disc while MakeMKV needs all information on the disc/track to create an. The second thing to remember is that just because a disc can be played successfully in a standalone disc player, it does NOT mean that it can be ripped. The first thing to know is that by the time you’ve seen one of these messages, the disc has been successfully decrypted so the problem is NOT decryption-related. You may encounter these while ripping:ġ.) Scsi error - MEDIUM ERROR:POSITIONING ERROR DETECTED BY READ OF MEDIUMĢ.) Scsi error - MEDIUM ERROR:L-EC UNCORRECTABLE ERRORģ.) Scsi error - MEDIUM ERROR:NO SEEK COMPLETEĤ.) Scsi error - MEDIUM ERROR:READ RETRIES EXHAUSTEDĥ.) Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST:ILLEGAL MODE FOR THIS TRACKĦ.) Scsi error - NOT READY:CANNOT READ MEDIUM - INCOMPATIBLE FORMAT Having said that, it is not uncommon for errors to arise that prevent the creation of an.

MakeMKV is a fantastic tool for decrypting discs and creating. To the experienced users, if I've made any errors, let me know and I will correct if I've missed something, let me know and I'll add. I hope it proves helpful to those new to MakeMKV.

If Mike or mods feel it needs to be removed, please do so and I apologize. Not trying to overstep my authority on this forum but given the extreme number of questions about problematic rips, and the equally extreme number of verbatim responses, I put together this suggested read.
