Trouble with Blade Runner Collectors blu-ray disc

Hi All,

I have the Blade Runner Collectors edition which is a multi disc set including several versions of the film. I have not been able to import disc #3 which happens to contain the following versions:
US Theatrical Cut (1982)
International Theatrical Cut (1982)
Directors Cut (1992)

I've tried importing the disc on both of my vaults and also my m500, but haven't had any success (always get the error: "Problem reading disc "). I've had a few discs in the past that I had trouble importing, but by retrying on a different Kscape component the process has usually been successful. In the few times where it hasn't been successful I've found the disc in question to also have trouble on my other non Kscape players, so was able to pin the problem to something wrong with the disc. I've tried disc #3 from this set on one of my non Kscape players and everything seems fine playing it back.

The disc looks to be in great physical shape, but I suppose there could still be an underlying problem that's not readily visible to my eyes. I'm considering looking to purchase another copy of the collectors set to try getting these versions of the film imported into my system (as far as I can tell, these versions of the film aren't in the Kscape store). However, before I set out to repurchase another copy of the discs, I figured I would check whether anyone else also has this collectors set and was able to get this disc to import I would hate to repurchase and still have the same problem. Appreciate if anyone else who has this set of discs could chime in with their experience.

Thanks,
Ken
 
I'm not sure if we have the same set, but I do have a 5-disc set (I think it's 3 Blu-ray Discs and 2 DVDs?) which was imported on my Premiere system before I replaced it with a downloaded version.
 
Thanks Mike, I gave it another try this evening after posting and the import worked fine. Go figure.. I'm not sure why it failed the first 5 times I tried, but it appears the tech gods finally took pity on me :)
