How to copy a bad disk??

I've got a great, old, not replaceable, disk that has a lot of scratches. I can play it on my DVD players and computer by jumping over the bad spots. But I keep getting error messages when I try to copy it or rip it.

I've tried to use the "ignore" function but the program seems to freeze when I do that.

I remember reading here, maybe somewhere else, about a method that really does ignore the bad parts of a disk and let you make a playable copy.

Any help is appreciated.

your best bet is take it too a movie rental store and have then resurface the dvd they charge a couple of buck to do it.[/quote]

Thanks Dinkie, I just found out my local library does that. Apparently they have a big problem with scratched disks too.

I didn't know there was a process for that - other than the old toothpaste trick which never worked for me.
