Scratch the top layer and you scratch/remove the recording layer.Ĭheck the bottom of your discs for scratches, dust and dirt. The recording layer is directly beneath the top layer. CDs don't have a protective polycarbonate layer. It's near impossible to damage the recording layer other than pressing on it really hard with something like a ball point pen or flexing the disc so hard that it bends and cracks.ĭon't be rough with CDs however. You can be a little tough on it as the recording layer is between two polycarbonate layers. Any label, no matter how small, unless it's just around inner hub, can throw a disc off balance and warp it, worst case permanently.
Even a small address label, remove it with Goo Gone, rubbing alcohol or warm soap and water. You have to buy the program to do the actual recovery. ISOBuster is more powerful, but will only show a tree of files available for recovery. Both will attempt to make an exact copy of the disc. Try ISOPuzzle (free) or ISOBuster (paid). Try as many different drives as possible. I'm not sure if it's because of the USB power or just better quality components. Yes, in general full size drives work better with iffy discs than portables. You'll likely get choppy video since sections of the file will be missing. In both DVD Decrypter and DVDFab, there's a checkbox to ignore errors. It's trialware for 30 days, after which the Blu-Ray ripping capability ends, but the DVD ripping capability remains. Even better, try DVDFab which is up to date.
