Not sure if i should post here or hardware or Optical writing forum.

The reason for guessing here is that maybe there is some software that will let me do what i need to.

Desperate - because its for my wife's open uni degree course

Problem is this.

I have a Canon (mini) DVD camera which i have filmed something on
I can play the mini DVD fine on my Laptop
BUT
if i try to copy it i get disc errors
as a result i don't even have a partial file - i tried recovering deleted files but it didn't work

is there any other way to get this from the mini DVD onto my PC?

the only thing i can think of that might have caused this is that the camera wasn't turned off it just ran until the disk ran out - could this cause my problems?

also any reason my 2 (admitidly older) PCs won't even read the mini disc but the comparativleyt new Laptop does?

many thanks
