To get the following programs, do a search on Google. This info took me a long time to perfect.

My System Specs
Win XP SP2(even worked on SP1)
P4 2.8gig
1.5 gig of PC 3200 Memory
120 gig HDD
120 gig HDD(slaved)
Pioneer DVR 108 16X16 Burner

I'm only wishing to get the main movie. None of the extra's. No deleted scenes, alternate endings, yadda yadda yadda. Only the movie

I'm Using DVD Decrypter 3.5.1.0. Go to Tools on the top, and select settings.

Now, go to mode and select "File F", your DVD Will Load up. Look to the right after it loaded up and you will see the DVD has loaded. Look for a file titles "IFO" and right below it you will see "VOB" files that equal too about 4 gigs if you select them all. Select the IFO and VOB files.

Something like this

VTS_01_0.IFO [ XX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_0.VOB [ X,XXX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_1.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_2.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_3.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_4.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Select
VTS_02_0.BUP [ XXX,XXX KB]<-----DO NOT SELECT
See how i selected the IFO and the VOB's, but NOT the BUP. Some movies will have MORE VOB's to select, or LESS VOB's to select. All depends on the movie. The BUP Follows the LAST VOB. Once again, do NOT select ANY VOB's. Now here's the confusing part. SOME movies have Widescreen AND Fullscreen on a one sided DVD. You will see TWO sets of the top Diagram. Here is what I do if this happens, On the top left of the program go to Edit and Select Main Movie Files. THIS will for SURE select the movie. If you have ANY doubts, do it like that. After doing that, it will look like this:

VTS_01_0.IFO [ XX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_0.VOB [ X,XXX KB]<----UN-SELECTED***
VTS_01_1.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_2.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_3.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Select
VTS_01_4.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Select
\par
I have no clue why it selects everything but the FIRST VOB. Just go back and click on IFO and drag it down to the last VOB to get this again. Remember, do NOT select the BUP file, or it will mess everything up that follows from here.

VTS_01_0.IFO [ XX KB]<----Selected
VTS_01_0.VOB [ X,XXX KB]<----Selected
VTS_01_1.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Selected
VTS_01_2.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Selected
VTS_01_3.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Selected
VTS_01_4.VOB [ X,XXX,XXX KB]<----Selected

On the left side you will see "Destination", and press the little folder option "Please Select A Folder...", Select the destination of where the movie will be. Make a folder, Name it "DECRYPTER". In that folder, make another folder with the movie title(Lets call this movie "ABCDEFG"(Remember, the movie ABCDEFG is in the DECRYPTER folder).

Let the program work its magic, while its putting the movie onto your hard drive. After its done, just eject the DVD from your DVD Rom and move on to DVD Shrink.

Now that all the setting have been set, Make sure you make a folder. Name it what ever you want. Since the folder were getting our movie from after we are done with DVD Decrypter, lets name this "ABCDEFG2". THIS folder is where you will put the movie in AFTER we get done with DVD Shrink. Now, lets get started. Open DVD Shrink and click the "Re-Author" tab. Underneath the "Hard DIsk Drive(s)", select the "ABCDEFG" folder(the one you used DVD Shrink to put into).

See the "Main Movie" list, and Title 1, select that(every once in a while, there will be title 1 and title 2. Difference between it is different camera angles. I always select "1"). Double Click Title 1 and it will go into its anylizing phase. After its done anylizing, see the "Compression Settings" and the "DVD Browser" tabs? Select the "Compression Settings". This is where you can get rid of different audio(language), and Sub Pictures(Closed Captions). Best bet is to get rid of ALL Closed Captions(unless your deaf), and only have EVERY ENGLISH checked. Un-check different languages, unless you want the movie to be in that language where you can select different languages on you DVD Player. REMEMBER=only have ENGLISH checked.

NOW, on the top bar select "Back Up", a screen will pop up and under the "Select Target Folder For DVD Output Files:" put the movie in "ABCDEFG2" Folder. Make sure you have "Create VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS Subfolders" UN-CHECKED. Now, press OK and the program will do its thing.




AUTHORING THE DVD

Get a DVD Burning program, such as Easy DVD Creator, Nero 6.0.0.0+, or what ever program you have to burn DVD's, and select the "ABCDEFG2" folder. THATS where your movie is in. After your done with burning(authoring) the movie, make sure you delete "ABCDEFG" and "ABCDERF2" folders. Just wasted Hard drive space.

Ya know, mulitposting is against the forum rules.

RE: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/137206

And if you want to do just do the movie only you can use DVD Shrink in re-author mode and just select the main movie. Then burn with either DVD Decrypter or Nero. No need to rip with DVD Decrypter first, unless Shrink can't rip it. Also, if you use the re-author mode you lose the menu function.

To retain the menu function and do movie only. In shrink you replace everything but the menu and main movie with a still image or still picture for the compression settings.

Methinks not - many of your processes/setting are unnecessary and would be totally confusing for people new to burning.

There are many simple useful guides availabe on this site.
