About ten years ago I had copied several old anime series onto DVDs, but now I notice that some seem to be damaged in some areas.
The discs have no externally visible damage. But when I copy some episodes to PC it starts spins in vain (I don't know if this is the right expression in english) for a few minutes, and then gives me an error I don't remember (unreadable sector or whatever). The damage only affects a few centrally located files; most of them, before and after, I can copy to PC.
Do you have any suggestions on how to recover them? Or how to repair the surface of the DVD (which however doesn't look damaged to the naked eye)?
Thank you.
