Do you see fresh messages in the output of dmesg ?
Like
Dec 2 13:56:33 ... kernel: [...] Sense Key : Medium Error [current]
Dec 2 13:56:33 ... kernel: [...] Info fld=0x69c0
Dec 2 13:56:33 ... kernel: [...] sr 2:0:0:0: [sr0]
Dec 2 13:56:33 ... kernel: [...] Add. Sense: Unrecovered read error
Dec 2 13:56:33 ... kernel: [...] sr 2:0:0:0: [sr0] CDB:
Dec 2 13:56:33 ... kernel: [...] Read(10): 28 00 00 00 69 b8 00 00 40 00
What do you get from
xorriso -outdev /dev/sr0 \
-check_media use=outdev \
data_to=/sdb1/movie.udf \
--
(It will at least show error messages directly.)

After 33 MiB of reading ?
(We have a bug in the kernel since 2008 which prevents waiting for the
drive to become ready after automatic tray loading. But this causes
0 bytes of read result and lets dd end immediately.)

Read failures of decaying drives often show surprising success-or-error
patterns. Depending on how idvdbackup accesses the drive, its doings
might be beneficial.
But reading in
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man1/dvdbackup.1.html
"-M, --mirror
backup the whole DVD"
i'd expect it to read sequentiall, like dd does.
So more questions to md:
- Does a second or third dd run yield success if no dvdbackup was run
inbetween ?
- Does dvdbackup yield a complete set of files if you let it work
until it ends on its own ?
Have a nice day :)
