Sounds like the dvd is protected. Sonic will not burn a protected dvd. You need to rip it first, then burn it

Take it to a professional dry cleaner ...

DVD Shrink works on older DVD's by itself but now with the newer DVD's you have to do a 2 step process before you burn to DVD...\n\nYou have to use a program called DVDFab Decrypter to decode the  copyright. Then take all those files that DVDFab rips and use DVD Shrink to "shrink" them.\nThen burn the files from DVD Shrink's output directory to your DVD.\n\nOf course,.... this is what I heard your supposed to do. ;-)

spray a little windex on a soft cloth, and clean it till there are no streaks, do not spray the windex on the screen, if it an lcd monitor, just use a damp cloth damp with water onluy, do not spray any glass cleaner on it, if it is really dirty, fo to an electronics store and get the right kind of cleaner for it

Some dvd players, particularly computer dvd drives have problems with some dvds. It depends on the quality of the media and if its scratched or damaged. Since you bought the dvd new, its probably not scratched, but you should look anyway. You should also try a lens cleaner disc for the dvd drive. There are several companies that make dvd media and compatibility can vary from company to company. Unfortunately there is not much you can do about media compatibilty other than to use a different dvd drive or a standalone dvd player (their media compatibility is sometimes a little better).

Clone DVD will do the trick. But it saves it in VBO's which Power DVD Player will recognise.\nYou could then use Video Redo to convert it to mpeg if you wanted to since you don't seem to want to burn a copy.

soak it in boiling water to melt the wax........then rinse and rub in hot soapy water, the rinse out to check it might take a couple of times but it will get clean.

Well this may sound a little disgusting and a little unsanitary, but if you lick it with your tongue all the way around , it will clean it and get whatever is on your disc OFF, but if it is actually marks and scratches it might not work, but hey I have a disc that has a crack right through the middle of it and it works great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can take a soft paper towel and rub it in the CD or DVD and it might work

You can't copy a DVD that's dirty.  Just run hot water over the "play" side of it, while rubbing it with your hand or a soft cloth.  The only time I've seen the symptoms you're describing is when the dvd is either dirty or badly scratched.

Dvd shrink. (dvdshrink.com) will decode and allow you to rip anything. . . .But only if you can download it FIRST. I don't think there is a way around that, unless you ask for permission from the website. Copyrighted items can be "borrowed" if you have permission. I would just email them and ask. Let them know what you are going to use it for, too.

Pretty daring of you.  You never know when the MPAA will come a-knockin... but DVD Shrink is great for this.

Purchase the throw away type, if not, wash with detergent with clorox and then wash again with a milder soap.

Rinse it off first, and then take it to a drive through wash.  The pressure wash should get it all off.  Good Luck.
