Capturing From "corrupt Disc"

[gbturmhs]

Hi - I raised this just before the boards went down, received several responses some which I was able to view and others that were wiped before I got chance to get back on line.

What I am trying to do is capture from Sony mini disc, when I do this VideoWave 7 advises I have a "Corrupt Disc". The disc plays fine on DVD player. I have tried copying as you would when copying a word document in windows and cleaning the disc but neither method has been succesful. If anyone has any suggestions I would grateful.

 

Thanks

Mike

Which application are you trying to use to capture the mini disc your hard disc that is giving you the 'corrupt disc' message? Is this audio or video? (I don't have access to a minidisc this moment, but I had thought they were typically audio)

The mini disc is a mini dvd. I am using VideoWave 7 to capture. I hope I have understood your question correctly.

That makes more sense, mini disc can refer to Sony MiniDisc as well as those smaller CDs.

 

How was the MiniDVD (DVD on CD) created, and using which application or program?

 

And I assume you were using the 'Roxio Capture' application to perform this function? I've never tested Capture with MiniDVD but my guess would be that it isn't supported...

 

i'm going to be offline for a few hours but I'll check your response in the morning...

I think I may have confused things with my reference to Mini DVD. What I have is a small DVD disc that loads into the Sony Camera, I record and finalise in the camera and then pop the dis out and then play in any DVD player. I am using this Disc in the DVD drive of my computer and trying to capture with VideoWave but am advised the disc is corrupt. I have manged to capture all my other discs using this method it just appears to be a problem with this one, I'm just wondering if there is a way around this. The problem disc does play in DVD players and the computer - it just refuses to be captured.

 

Thanks
