Re: filmscanners: Corrupted Photo CD

Did you ever look at this particular CD before - it looks more like a fault
prior to the CD being written. A media error is not likely to give such
linear lines - it is more likely to refuse completely or miss blocks of the
picture.

Does your reader have trouble reading the disc i.e. does it make a noise
which changes frequently?

If it does try another machine/reader (cd-writers are generally more
forgiving).
