Hi Shai,
I have had success using the GNU ddrescue software
<https://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/manual/ddrescue_manual.html>. It
can be run using multiple players in order to create a complete final
file. I have "saved" many "problem" writable DVDs though I have
encountered a few that were unrecoverable. See also:

and Addressing Flaws and Errors."
