Ok thanks... So does that mean I can use SonicMyDVD and/or Alchol 120%


p.s. How would i use Alchol ? ThankYou. its 40 % done on the Shrinking part of it... or whatever.


ALSO: I didn't see any Audio files when i was... err Either using DVD Decrypter or the Shrinker...

Did I mess up?

Alcohol cannot master DVD only copy them
Use Nero or (my Favourite) RecordnowMax To master your DVD & burn
The AUDIO_TS folder WILL be empty all the files are in The VIDEO_TS Folder
Burn BOTH folders to your DVDR:)

cool , thank you. Everything works great. Except, I'm pretty positive that I had enough space. And I dragged over the Menu's and a couple of other things. But the movie does not have them. Did I do something wrong? (The bar was green on the Shrinking Program )

Also, It may be the old movie I back-up'd ( dont remember the quality ) but is there any way I can make my quality better?

THANK You! :)

Other than re-encoding the movie to improve quality, I don't think there is another way to improve quality. As for the menus not being there, could be wrong pointers in the ifo files or did you just rip the movie files from the disc? If you dont rip all the files from the disc you will not have menus/extras. A sensible way to ensure you get all the files is to use the iso read mode in decrypter, then get a program called daemon tools. This installs a vitual drive onto your pc and when you mount the iso file your pc thinks the vitual drive has a normal dvd in. Point dvd shrink at the vitual drive and shrink the movie to your desired size and then re-author the disc with your favourite burning software. I use stomp recordnow max v4.5.

if u're using dvdshrink's reauthoring function, u can't keep the original menus. there's no way to improve the quality from its original source.
