To recover the data you need to use a disc image tool such as ImgBurn or a disc recovery tool such as dvdisaster.

After having created the image, DVD-Video (MPEG2) can be repaired using Project X.  To use this you must install JDK (Java Development Kit) and use the build.bat file in the Project X source archive to compile the software.

Use the following instructions to recover data from corrupt discs and to remux mpeg2 video.
