DVD Recovery ?

Author
Time
Evening folks,

I have a number of DVDs that I received in a trade over 5 years ago with ridiculously rare stuff on it - including a number of 2001, Aliens and Star Wars rarities. I've wacthed them all before perfectly well in a number of stand alone players in the past - but now not only will they not play - but as many programs as I can think of on the PC can't even identify any information on the discs - even the usually reliable DVD Decrypter coupled with 321's DVDXRescue (that I've succesfully used to recover discs in the past) report that the discs are empty (which they definitely aren't !). Anyone with any tips or even systems that are able to read these type of discs ?

Much thanks.

Don't have any technical suggestions, but maybe you could get in touch with the original trader?

I think that's the best plan THX - bizarrely I have managed to fully recover one of the Star Wars discs (with the excellent Ominbus - George Lucas Flying Solo Documentary) - my hope is that I'll be able to spin the same magic with the 2001 disc
