Thanks Chetwood, but what I really want to know is how to get DVD Shrink to recognise a .ts file from my PVR

DVD Flick might read the .ts files but it may also result in audio sync issues or just crash due to the inability to cope with glitches and corruption in the broadcast stream. And if it did work, you would no longer have the need for DVD Shrink.

as to dvd shrink your right he won't need it if flick works, but at least he can make a second disc a lot faster than waiting for dvd flick by useing shrink.

Make a second disc using DVD Shrink? What exactly you mean by that, care to explain, since it doesn't make much sense to me...?

most of use like to make more than one backup, and if you've ever used dvd flick you might note that is kind of slow, so a second copy can be made using dvd shrink, and it won't take as long as dvd flick because it does'nt have to go through the prosses of recreating the vob and vts files.
you know so much about this stuff then riddle me this, I just bought the second and third season of PRIMEVAL and wanted to make backup copies with DVD Fab 6 but it only gives me 8 seconds of each disc so i used DVD fab 5.2.2.2 and it worked fine dvd shink tells me the dvd structure is wrong ???? riddle me o wise one as to why that is, even the older clone DVD has no problem backing the disc up.

Actually, DVD Shrink has no use to make a second copy, you just burn the existing files to disc using whatever burner you want(ImgBurn for example).Using DVD Shrink would be redundant and pointless.

---

never did say dvd shrink had to be used, just that he could use it if he wanted to

---

---

...but in all seriousness both dvd fab 6 and dvd shrink make my blood boil when they only give you half the movie or an out of order structure, why would shrink till me the structure is wrong if the ### thing is playing like it should, and mind you this is the new version of DVD shrink,

---

---

as to imgBurn it comes as a package with DVD flick so I know it works.

Unless it is a movie that you want to remove features/reduce size, there is no use for DVD Shrink with an output from DVD Flick. For a second copy, just burn it, no reason to process it again.

There is no "New Version of DVD Shrink". DVD Shrink is the same that's been out for ages, hasn't been updated in a very long time, it's development ceased. If you were tricked into getting a "New Version", well...you got duped.
As to DVDFab 6 making your blood boil...could be because it is old...it's already up to version 7.xxx.
Even if the video plays okay in a video player, a transcoder still can have problems handling it(afterall, the original discs do play with no problems with all the encryption on them)

Yes, it does come with DVD Flick, but you can also use it as an individual, standalone program to burn any data, music, video...

DVD Shrink 2008 is a FAKE, nothing to do with the "rel" DVD Shrink...and I cannot see how it would work better.
What movie are you having problems with DVDFab? Did you try to use/not use "PathFinder"?

the new version of DVD flick seems to have fixed a lot of the problems with audio sync issues and i've yet to have it crash on me, as to braodcast glitches I live in south Africa and beleave me our system is not the best in the world but even so I seem to succeed more than I fail when I copy the TS file from my PVR, it the Risk you take it eather works or not.
