There are a couple of different ways the program may be used. It is primarily used for shrinking the size of the file to a size that will fit on a standard DVD-5.

Make sure that you are using quality disks to burn. In Shrink set the maximum size to 4430 or 4435 if you are using quality disks. The reason for this is to not burn to the edge of the DVD which can cause problems. You may convert your file to ISO, which I never do, but many people do. I would also suggest using the "Build" feature in ImgBurn to burn the VIDEO_TS folder.

Here are some basic instructions to follow.

I hope that gets you going!

Ok, now that we know you are downloading, we need to know what type of files are you downloading (avi, mpg, mkv, rar) so that we can help you more.

Use the Open File button on DVDShrink.




The folder should be called VIDEO_TS. All of the other files are located in that folder. Then DVDShrink should work for you unless you have damaged structure in the files. Here is another pic from alkohol's guide to help explain.

I thought that you said you had a VIDEO_TS file which held the movie files?

Your file structure should look like this:
C:\Wizard_of_Oz\VIDEO_TS\(here is where the movie files are located.)

Download VobBlanker by selecting the underlined link. After you install try to open the file with that and then process it. If this does not work then it may be the way you have the files set up and they may not necessarily be bad files.

You may look back at the guide on the use of the program.
