dvdshrink 2.3 -

i have a sony vaio laptop with dvd-r drive and a dell desktop with a dvd+-r drive. dvdshrink works great copying dvd's

I just bought a dell inspirion laptop maxed out and it has a dvd+r drive and when I open the dvd in shrink 2.3 like i normally do, I get a copy protection error. what the hell's goin on?

every other person i know uses the same thing i do. dvdshrink 2.3 and nero6. How would dvdshrink not work on this brand new laptop. are they makin the drives different now?

perhaps you are trying to backup a NEWER dvd release that DVD Shrink can't handle to protection scheme...

try AnyDVD, available with a 21-day free trial @ www.slysoft.com, i would def. recommend purchasing it, but try it out for yourself first to see if you like it~

chances are, as far as i am aware of...AnyDVD will handle the new encryption, i haven't had a single one fail on me yet~ :)

There have been recent complaints about Sony using new Copy protection removal blocking software in their computers, so if the inspiron uses Sony components you could have a permanent problem if AnyDVD doesn't do the job.

i didn't install AnyDVD yet.

But I inserted a dvd into the drive and this mediacenter thing pops up to play dvd's

if I start shrink to open the dvd before this comes up, it works fine

anyone ever hear of this???

what you need to do is DISABLE this mediacenter program you are referring to...i've never heard of such a program that if you ALLOW it to start and simply close it out then start DVD Shrink, it would not work...very strange indeed...
