I have limited knowledge with burning and ripping so bare with me. I have always used DVDshink to rip to my HD, then used DVDdecrypter to burn my movies to DVD's. I've been running into a lot of errors lately so I thought I would try another program, Imgburn, and when I installed it, it removed and replaced my DVDshrink. So, what am I supposed to rip with now? I would have thought if either of the two, it would have replaced DVDdecrypter since that is mainly for burning also correct? I have tried DVDfab in the past to rip but it gives me all of these files and folders I don't know what to do with. If its not an ISO file, I don't know what to do with it. Any help is appreeciated. Thanks.

I am not sure what you mean by "it replaced DVD Shrink". Replaced it from what? Where did you install ImgBurn from.
It might be time to get back to DVDFab. DVD Shrink is not updated anymore, it cannot handle the encryption of the new discs.
If you prefer saving as an ISO, DVDFab can do that too(although makes no difference, if you save as a Video_TS folder, it is as easy to burn it to disc).

During the install process of Imgburn, it told me that it was designed to replace my current burning software and asked me if I wanted to replace DVDshrink. I said yes. So, when all was said and done, my new icon for Imgburn is right where DVDshrink was on my desktop, and shrink is gone. I assumed that it had ripping capability also since it removed shrink. To me, it should have removed DVDdecrypter instead, since that is used for burning. I downloaded it from a link that someone had posted in another thread in this forum. I prefer ripping as an ISO because that gives me ONE file when its done. When they're ripped as IFO files, there are 15 to 20 of them. I have no clue what to do with those.

You just answered your own question right there. You stated it was ok to replace dvdshrink and it did.

See, I am not sure what you installed. I had DVD Shrink on my PC since forever, recently I installed ImgBurn, and no "uninstall message popped up".
Try an re-install DVD Shrink. However, I suggest you use DVDFab, like I showed you, it can save as an ISO. DVDFab can rip the new DVDs with ease, DVD Srhink will give you headache.

The quick solution to that was to have said no to the replacement or removal of shrink. But likewise, you can always reinstall shrink, it's even located in the downloads section of this site. Shrink is not a very good tool anymore, outdated, otherwise legacy. If you insist on using it, then get ripit4me software, as that program utilizes shrink and decryptor.
As far as why it would do such a thing, whoever made the program decided that shrink was no longer needed..........

Ripit4me is not gonna help.
I can understand the "apprehension" when dealing with more files, rather than one single ISO(I am picturing my grandmother!). However, there is not difference. You deal with one ISO(ONE FILE), or deal with ONE FOLDER(you don't have to do absolutely anything to the individual files inside that Video_TS foledr, the VOB, IFO, BUP...that scare you). Either way you deal with one item, one file, or one folder.
Regardless, DVDFab CAN SAVE TO ONE ISO if that makes life easier. And using it, will make it in the long run, unless you're ripping a couple years old discs.

Is it better to rip/burn using the VOB/IFO, etc? I get the feeling you prefer that over the ISO files, and I'm curious as to why. Is the quality better?

No, I actually don't, I rip as an ISO, so I can convert to AVI using FairUse Wizard. The quality is identical...The content is exactly the same, just wrapped up in an ISO container. That's what I am trying to tell you, it makes absolutely no difference, the steps to burning are no more or less either way...And again, rip to an ISO with DVDFab if that's what you prefer...

Okay so I downloaded DVDFab. When I want to just rip the movie to my HD, do I just leave it on DVD to DVD? And when I used Shrink, I could ReAuthor the DVD and take out the extras that made the file to big. Is that available in Fab? I'm wanting to rip Lord of The Rings. I know they are big files, so I clicked on the "Movie Only", but its still only at 60%.

Yes, in the left window you can choose "main movie". Then you can choose whatever subtitles/audio you want to keep.

I'm gonna have to call BS on that. Why would ImgBurn offer to remove DVD Shrink? It does not have the same features, if at all it would offer to replace DVD Decrypter's burning functionality. And even that did not happen when I just installed it, despite DVDD and Shrink being installed.
Also, IIRC DVDFab only outputs to ISO when registered.

Those VIDEO_TS files i keep seeing out of my DVDFab and then burning to DVD must be a figment of my imagination then...

You know what? Your right. I totally lied. I made all of it up because I have nothing better to do than to sit here jerking off at the computer and toy with complete strangers for my own amusement. You got me Chetwood. Party on.

kimfella - imgburn doesn't (can't) replace DVD Shrink. I have a feeling you've confused Nero with DVD Shrink. (Far too) many people make the assumption that DVD Shrink burns, what they don't realise is that they have Nero set as the burning program in DVD Shrink's preferences hence why they make the mistake in thinking that DVD Shrink burns.. I'm not implying that you don't know the difference between the programs but that's the only thing i can think of, imgburn categorically does not and cannot replace DVD Shrink..

I did see these replies, but i've never seen this behaviour before, as was asked further up the thread, where did you get imgburn from ?.

Yeah, the whole DVD Shrink replacement is iffy enough...that should never happen, unless ImgBurn downloaded is nuked...
DVDFab(unregistered version) will save as an ISO to hard drive, or will burn directly to disc using the VSO burning engine(if you chose to install it;I didn't, don't need more junk on my machine)). If you didn't install the VSO thinggie,DVDFab will search and use one of the burning engines already available on your machine, and you can choose which one you want as default(in my case, I choose between Nero Burning Rom or ImgBurn;probably you can do that even if you installed the VSO component, not sure though, as I cannot test that).
If someone says DVDFab doesn't use Nero or ImgBurn,or doesn't save as an ISO, then you call me a liar, so I'm'a'gonna reach through the screen and...well, not gonna shake their hand, that's for sure.

Last time I saw when you set it up or change the config it will ask for the path to the burning app.. I have an xp thing here with a few different burners installed. Guess it's time to have an experiment on something that is going to be wiped anyway to see what it will and won't find and use.. XD

Kimfella... I had it do the exact same thing... well not exactly but close. when I installed imageburn it replaced my rip program. But here's how I fixed it. Uninstall Imageburn. reinstall DvdShrink and then reinstall Imageburn (this time choose no) sounds simple, it is. Don't feel bad I made the same rookie mistake, only it replaced a different program not dvd shrink. BTW I use anydvd (registered) dvdshrink, and imageburn seems to be the magic trio for me.

I really don't know how is it possible for ImgBurn to replace a ripping program.If you have the "real", proper ImgBurn, that should not happen. I call BS.

.
Can you take a screen shot when that happens, when you get that message about un-installing whatever application?
