I use DVD shrink to burn my DVD's and have never really had any problems, but now I'm hearing a lot about this DVD decrypter program. Should I be using this program? I know you use the two programs together, but I don't know how or why. What does DVD decrypter do that DVD shrink doesn't?

Hi there,

DVDShrink = Well, I guess you figured it out, takes some video and SHRINKS it.

Sometimes, DVDShrink won't be able to read the DVD, because it has protection on it.

DVD Decrypter will read the DVD, and put the data on your HD.

It knows how to read those/most protections, and knows how to bypass them, so it CAN copy the stuff.

DVD Decrypter is not 100%, on it's own, it will still have issues, specialy on brand new protection scheme !

SlySoft has a software called AnyDVD.

Now this software, runs in the background and removes 99.99% (I would say) protections, so DVDShrink can read the DVD without problems.
It seems the DVD as a plain data disk, no protections on it !

Do that make sence ? Comments anyone <grin> !
