you could get some perspecs polish , eg plastic polish and try that
i use it to clean aircraft windows and it works a treat on cd's and dvd's
but no software way to get around it mate sorry
i once heard someone saying that furnitue polish will do the same thing
eg like mr sheen
worth a try
It is mafuckto
Hi, if the disk is'nt scratched from the label side, first off, i would just wash it in some washing up liquid and thenj rinse off with cold water, then dab dry with a soft cloth.Originally posted by delphin460@19 May 2004 - 12:01

Then wipe from the center of the disk to the edge, as radial scratches are easier to read past than circumference scratches, i.e. scratches that go in the same direction as the data track on the disk.
If this does'nt work, then you can try T-cut car polish, (only as a last resort, disk wont work anymore type thing option,).
Just rub a small ammount of polish in small circles on disk, leave to dry and polish off again the same way, be very careful not to rub too hard or you might cause more scrtches.
I have sucessfully reserected several playstation cds and pc cdroms and audio cds that woud'nt playback using the washing up method, and the more extrme method of car polish has saved a few that were destined for the bin.
USE THIS INFO AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! I Have totally fuked some disks as well, if you dont experiment, you dont discover anything!
Washing up liquid helps 90% of unreadable disks, if not disk might be past repair.
Hope this helps in some way.
P.S. why dont you take dvd back to hire shop and get another copy? tell them it was already scratched.

If you remove the coating from a cd your next task has to be copying it onto a new cd.
Without exception
Why females insist on putting the lid down is beyond me.
the store i got o, they ususally give you another movie if you say it stops in the middle and wont play, if you go to one of thise shit blockbuster/hollywood moive polaces, i doubt theyll give you another oneOriginally posted by Bebi@19 May 2004 - 06:29

of course they will - they have to, they provided a service which wasnt fit for purpose, so they will give you a different copy and an apology...i wouldnt fuck with polish on their disk, else youll get charged for it!

if they don't threaten to slit their throat with the defective disc, and their whole family aswell, or legal action is quite popular i hearOriginally posted by vivitron 15@19 May 2004 - 20:18

it might work if u put ur finger in the hole of the cd and put it in the toilet and flush the toilet but make sure that u dont flush the cd down the toilet
but before u try it with the rented dvd u might want 2 practice with a old cd that u dont want
and then wipe the cd with a soft towel so the cd wont get more scratches
you can bring it back and tell them you could not play it because it was 2 much scrashed, I always get a new one when I tell this
