DVD Shrink only accepts valid DVD structure such as .vob, .ifo, .bup files. DVD Shrink will also accept .ISO files as well.

Run your .mpeg files through TMPGEnc (or similar program).

1) Use "TMPGEnc" (or "TMPGEncPlus") to convert the .AVI (DivX-compressed or otherwise) to compliant MPEG2-for-DVD format - You can use "TMPGEnc's" DVD wizard/template to accomplish this.

2) Use "TMPGEnc DVD Author" (a different program than "TMPGEnc") to easily create the required additional DVD files and structure (and chapters and a menu, if you wish).


**If the combined file size of the DVD "package" written to your hard drive is greater than 4.37Gb, use DVD Shrink to compress it down to fit on your recordable media.


If your operating system (O/S) is either Win2000 or WinXP, TMPGEnc DVD Author can also burn your DVD. Otherwise, use NERO to burn in "DVD-Video" mode - Tutorial Located here on how to do this: http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=221453#p...

TMPGEnc - http://www.tmpgenc.net/e_main.html

(You can try to skip the first step and directly load them into TMPGEnc DVD Author (A different program than TMPGEnc).)
