Dear All

Is there some way to check whether a (video) DVD is well recorded
without playing it?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

If you have the original ISO, then you can do a checksum of the images.Or mount the DVD and do a checksum of the individual files.

I have done this from time to time.

What do you have for a reference to compare to?

If you don't have any original files to compare to, you can only checkto see if the files either play properly or can be copied.


What are you trying to check for?  This may help in giving a decent answer.
