The time it takes depends on alot like speed of cp and such, give me some more details about your system, thanks

It sounds to me like you have the quality settings enabled, which will add alot of time to your encoding process.
I agree also with calhounm,the speed of your computer has something to do with it as well.
You might want to check you data tranfer to make sure its in DMA instead of PIO,have a look at this thread.

when you say it takes 2 and a half hours to burn, that's not the burning of the disc itself is it? Are you using Shrink from the disc or ripping first with DVD Decrypter, then shrinking the files from the hard drive? If you're ripping then shrinking, is it the ripping that takes forever or the shrinking?

Okay, changing to DMA mode should help your speed issue. And, I am not at all surprised at 2 1/2 hours if your were running in DMA mode, and you were trying to do this with only 256 MB of RAM.
And, to help with some of the confusion here, keep in mind that DVDShrink is what you are using for the "ripping" part of the process -- where you are transcoding and shrinking and copying the files over to your hard drive. However, you are using some other program to actually do the "burn," which is what you talked about early on. My suspicion is that you may be using Nero, and you have DVDShrink set to automatically start up Nero after it is done doing its thing.
Remember, DVDShrink does not have any burning ability built into it at all. None. It is only for ripping and compressing.
An additional warning, for the future... if you notice this slowdown again in a week, or a month, or six months, be aware that there is a Windows "bug" (which Microsoft does not call a bug) whereby your DMA setting will automatically change from DMA to PIO mode, after six errors have occurred. Windows interprets that many boo-boos as meaning your hardware cannot handle DMA mode, so it just quitely switches things without telling you. The problem, of course, is that a very scratched DVD or a very dirty DVD can cause you to have six "I/O Cyclic Redundancy Check or CRC" errors very quickly, which can cause this to happen.
Hope this helps,
-Bruce

I used to have up to 5 hours for ripping/compressing with Shrink. That was with a 600MHz CPU and 512MB RAM with quality enhancements. How fast is your CPU?

My encoding is a little faster. 1gig PIII with 512K ram set with quality enhancements and burn using DVD Decrypter. System usually takes about 3 1/2 hours.

It only takes about 40min on average if you just back up the main movie and use little to no compression (usually achived by doing only main movie) If you are however doing the whole DVD then you are doing a lot of compression therefore a lot more encoding so it is going to take a lot longer.
For me using DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink (average times)
Rip Movie (Main movie & IFO's only) with Decrypter = 6-10min
Reauthor with Shrink = 3-5min (No Compression involved)
Burn with Decrypter = 10-15min
So you see you could actually do a DVD backup with that method in under 30min so whoever told you they can do it in 45min wasen't lying at all. It just depends on your method of backing up along with a few other things but your specs all look pretty good. Just make sure your drives are in DMA mode as suggested and turn off any other programs during the process and you will be going as fast as your PC will allow.
Cheers :-)

yeah I always do full disc with all quality enhancements, sometimes 50% compression and with quality enhancements on a slow machine, that can be an all-nighter.

rrisky:
The friend who told you how long it takes is probably reporting HIS times, and he may not be "full of crap," as you put it.
BBMayo put it correctly in his post. My times are like those of your friend. BUT, I never use any compression (I have to have maximum picture quality). I split to two DVDs, if necessary. If you do not compress, things go a LOT faster. Also, I have a fast PC, with 2 Gig of RAM, and a second hard drive which is dedicated only for ripping. I refrag that hard drive after almost every rip, and wipe most video files from it right away.
My typical times:
-Rip a typical DVD single layer to the hard drive in 15 - 25 minutes
-Burn it back to a blank DVD single layer in approximately 15 minutes (I always burn slow, for maximum stability); this could be much faster, but I slow this down to 4X).
========
If the original I own is a dual layer, double the above times, since I simply repeat the process with 1/2 of the movie on each blank single layer disc. I usually put all extras after the main movie on disc two. No menus, in these cases.
Your friend probably uses a different approach than you, and also probably has a PC with different specs.

After the first rip/crush with DVD Shrink, keep the resulting files on your HD (Approx 4.35GB for DVD5 format). Then you can burn copy after copy in 45mins or so by OPENING the files instead of the actual DVD, then backing it up from pre-shrunk DVD format.
The intitial "RIP" can take up to an hour on my PC (AMD 2000 + 512Mb RAM) using either DVD Shrink or DVD-Decrypter (need to DVD Shrink usually to fit on DVD5 format after decrypting).
So your times add up to normal for me. If you are very clumsy and need lots of "backups", then leave the DVD Shrink ripped DVD files on your HD until you get fed up with the film or run out of blank discs.

@ Bawjawz
Your times for ripping are to high there has to be something wrong? There is no way in hell it should take an hour to rip any DVD with Decrypter.. Unless you have a very old 2x DVD ROM or your drive is runing in PIO mode instead of UDMA... There is something definately wrong I have friends with slower provessors and less RAM than you and they rip twice as fast as you...
You might want to check out your settings...

Thanks, but as I always say, "If it ain't broken don't fix it". I can wait, happy with quality and compatibility i'm getting.
