Seems to me, the DVD your trying to rip has a small scratch on it and your DVDROM in conjunction with DVDx can't read past it.

I would look at the DVD and give it a clean with a soft cloth and "REMEMBER TO WORK FROM THE MIDDLE OUT TO IT'S EDGE OR ELSE YOU COULD SCRATCH IT EVEN MORE".

Also try a different DVD Ripper, something like DVD-DECRYPTER or SMARTRIPPER, you could even try vSTRIP which is reckoned by some to be the best Ripper there is. The only thing is it's a little compilated to use.

i've tried cleaning the dvd & using vstrip still no joy

Have you try others DVD-ROM IF you have 2nd pic. Error reading is not your disc could scratch. May be or not. This DVD must be well protect disc. Ripping may read block error in red color. Or block dropping. The below info hope that will help. Thanks.
