My PowerDVD's Error Code 89030000- Unknown File Format Fix

I see this error with DVDShrink 3.0b5 and also with Recode 0.9.6.6. edit: I ran all the files through SmartRipper, as you suggest. I didn't see any encoded blocks. Nonetheless, it made PowerDVD able to open the DVD - so it fixed something. However, there were still problems playing the main movie -- not sure why. :edit

I did all the above steps.Smartripper did not show any encrypted blocks in the Code-Info section. I then used DvdFab to create my 2 DVD directories then used Imgtools to create the Image. I burned the image to another DVD. I still received the same error in Powerdvd. Ant other suggestions would be great. Thanks Harley

I must have posted something wrong. The DVD's that give the error in Powerdvd also will "not" play in my PS/2 in fact they come up unreadable.The only DVD's I have had problems with so far have been this one it is a soccer movie called Bend it like beckham and Finding Nemo they both come up with the same error and will not read in my PS/2. I am wondering if there is something new being done to some of the more recent DVD's to try and stop backups? Who knows you experts probably can do them I am following the guides off of Dooom9 and don't have near the knowlege you have when it comes to troublshooting these types of errors. Thanks Harley

I myself have had this error pop up on occassion when playing back a dvd ripped to my hd. When I receive this error is usually occurs when I am removing unwanted extras with empty cells/vobs, and haven't update the ifo's or Get VTS Sectors at the end of my project. If you have DVD Shrink installed, which you should because it FREE, you can figure out which set of files is causing the error. If you double click on each IFO, DVD Shrink will open the IFO and analyze it. The program will halt and say that it cannot continue because it had encountered an error. You will need to correct this. If you have replaced/stripped cells, then you need to use IfoEdit open the ifo. Click on VOB Extras, click Check All, click Strip It, click Check All to save all VOB ID's, click Strip It again. After IfoEdit copies your files to your hard drive, drag them back into your orginal folder. Then reopen any of the ifo's again in IfoEdit and click Get VTS Sectors. Now trying playing the movie again. It's not very often that I haved received this error, and I use DVDDecrypter and PowerDVD XP 4.0, but I have been able to correct it. I don't thinks it's software it's reauthoring. DVD's are complicated, so the smallest errors will cause the project to go bad. I think I have also encountered this after trying to edit video_ts.vob and had to restore the original.
