Where, on the computer, does shrink store the data for previously analyzed discs?

I have been searching around and can't locate this info. This really isn't a problem, I just like to know where things are going on my PC.

Go into My Computer, then select the tools tab, then folder options and view tab go down and and check show all files and hidden folders



The go back to My Computer, Documents and Settings, All Users, then Application Data and DVD Shrink you will see all the analysis files.

Thanks.

I was just curious where they were going.

On a similar note, how can I get DVD Shrink to stop making temp output files on the hard drive, and just burn direct from the hard drive source to the blank DVD? I have an existing DVD Shrink temp folder from the last burn I did, and I want to make another copy of that stuff. If I open files on DVD Shrink, and then choose backup, it will create another copy of those files (taking up time) instead of just burning them strait to disc. Can this be turned off?

@fmian: I doubt it, but even if it were possible, I'd think you'd get all kinds of buffer underrun errors and it would sure stress out your burner a lot more.

What temp output files are you guys talking about?

Do you mean the ISO file?

If you do, why are you running shrink at them again, just burn them as is, using your burn program.

The temporary files that are left on your computer are in the DVD Shrink application file, they are the analysis files of your moviesn not the iso files. These analysis files are hidden and unless you manually delete them they will remain on your computer.

These temporary files are handy when you want to make another backup of your DVDs later..This way they won't go thru the Shrink analysis stage again. They don't take up much room either. So unless you are desparately in need of hard drive space, I suggest leaving them there. Knowing where they are and how to get rid of them is sufficient for me now....

They are damn handy! I found out after about 50 burns that you can 'open' these files to make a second copy. Until then I just encoded the disc again... :-$
