DVD DEcrypter has less trouble ripping many "difficult" dvd's than Shrink does. Its also able to remove Macrovision protection, while Shrink cannot. It also allows you to rip the DVD to your HD and then convert it at a later time with Shrink or whatever.
Shrink can remove macrovision. It is has been availablle since the early v2 versions.
I use Decrypter to to do multiple versions of the DVD with Shrink. Also now with Decryoter and the latest beta, it will burn the ISO made by Shink. A total freeware ripping, backup and burning solution.

I think your Caps lock is stuck.
No, Dvd Decrypter cannot rip & cut a movie to 2 parts that can be burn to 2 dvd's and play. Just use Shrink for that, its free and an easy program to use.

Actually, if you use the start/end function in re-author mode you can cut a movie in half, either by chapter, or by slider specific point. You cannot, however, retain menu or extras this way.
i use shrink+nero, have made over 300 films that way

The Splitting is not working. See the following and tell me if there is something that I am doing wrong
Soccer dvd movie 7.11Gig. NOT encrypted
2 files: Audio_TS = empty and Video_TS = 7311 Gig.
Video consists of about 23+ files, mostly VTS, and(called bup, ifo, ATi, and ATI player).
Movie is on hard drive. When loaded into DVDShrink 317 final, uncompressed, the 3 Full Disk breakdowns are
Title menus- 6 indiv files, and they add up to 409 Meg
Main movie - Titleset 2=2601 Meg, and Titleset 3 =2602 Megs Total 5203 Meg
Extras- consist of 21 titlesets , 1, 3, 4, 5,…..23, and add up to 1673 Meg
Total size is 7285 Megs.
From what I understand, in order to split this movie into 2 DVDs and Keep everything, I have to click Re-Author. I set it to No compression, but in Re-Author, it shrinks all the files down to 4463 Meg, or 4.35 gig. I cannot get around that. All titlesets are compressed smaller.
I set it to Region free, Crerate Video-TS and Audio-TS, and Specify the Target folder, etc…
When I click Backup and also start/end, I have tried to split the movie several places, but mainly so Titleset 2 and 3 are in separate DVD blanks, I always get the identical result, which is a nice compressed version, which always fit on 1 DVD, but with many of the Extras missing and the menu not working. And only English language, even though the original has 4 languages. Actually, the So-called EXTRAS are mostly very important parts of the movie, and they are missing.
Even when I split it so titlesets 2 and 3 are on separate DVDs, the 2 DVDs turn out to be identical, each being a compressed version of the whole movie.
Titleset 2 has 6 chapters and titleset 3 has 7 chapters
Why can’t I get it to NOT compress so it will have the whole original movie on the 2 DVDs combined???
Is there another way of putting this whole movie on 2 DVDs without compression and not leaving anything out.

DVD Decrypter is a tool for stripping DVD's to your hard drive & it enables U to do what U will with the resulting files.

You can't do it and keep everything with re-author mode. That just makes the titles run in sequence and a non functional menu.
The way I am describing is movie only, split over two discs.
In reauthor mode, drag over the main movie, and remove any streams you don't want. Click the start/end button above the word "size". In the window that opens, set the start at the beginning, and the end at half way using the slider, or select a chapter halfway through the movie. Reauthor this as disc1. When that's finished, set the start position to where disc1 ended, and the end position to the end of the movie, and reauthor this as disc2.
Again, this only works for movie only, split over two discs.

DVDShrink advertises that it will split the whole contents between 2 DVD blanks in re-author mode. . From my experience, that is correct. The problem here is that many of the 21 titlesets it puts under EXTRAS, are essential to the movie, but some of them are excluded, and the Menus are not working.
I copied the movie to hard disk already.
the movie is NOT encrypted.
AS described, I did use the Start/End option to split the movie, but Both halves, which are burnt to separate DVD blanks, are completely identical, and big parts of the movie, in the EXTRAS are not burnt.
BBothe dvds burnt are identical to a copy burnt with DVDXCopy Xpress, which also left out essentisl parts of the movie.
.In full disk mode there seems to be no way to split, and burn to 2 DVDs
.To Scotsdavy 1...I will look at DVD2One, to see if it can put the entire contents onto 2 DVD blanks.
thanks

my girlfriend has `gone with the wind` which is on two dvds. i used dvd2one to put the 2 onto 1 dvd with no break at all, & the film worked out perfect that way. i have only tried it without all the extras, ie: film only. but it does work, might take a bit longer to do, but worth it in the end. good luck & if you need any more help, just askmoen said:
Reauthor mode is just for the film and any other extras you would like to watch after the film.
None of the extras will be needed to watch the film in reauthor. If in reauthor, the film is title 1, then just drag that title to the reauthor window. The whole film will be played as usual.
In full disk mode however, the film can have shared titles, this can be turned off if needed.
