With a 1.1 Gig Celron processor with 256 megs Ram is it normal for dvd shrink to take 2+ hours?

Depends what you are doing, how big is the file you are shrinking?

Like Umug said, depends on what are you doing. If your file is big and needs compression, Deep Analysis and Quality Enhancement will slow the process. Also, you don't have that much Ram ,so don't multitask.

Those are good reference times, but doesn't CPU capacity and RAM availability influence the speed of encoding? I wonder what system was used for those numbers...

You are exactly correct, I should have posted this too...LOL
Quote: Average Times:
So to get a clue to you if your times are avarage and quit normal or they are way to slow I will show you some examples I have done on a PC with Windows XP, AMD XP 2000+ (1.67 GHz) CPU , 512 Mb memory.
The DVD I have used is Fawly Towers-Series one. The only thing that can be compressed using DVD Shrink is the video part. Audio and subpictures can't be compressed. Video 6.967 Mb, Audio 515 Mb and Subpictures 29 Mb. Total discsize is 7.552 Mb. Total playtime is 3 hours and 11 minutes.
The encoding time depends on the amount of compression (more compression, the longer it takes). If the user is taking out audio and subs, then that will increase the time.
If you have a CPU with
a 1.000 MHz CPU - double all the times except the ripping and burning time.
a 3.000 MHz CPU - halve all the times except the ripping and burning time.

I had a computer that had 2.66 Ghz processor with 512 meg of Ram and Shrink only took 20 to 25 min. :) now it's in the shop and I pulled out my old eMachines T1140 to use. Thanks for the replies.
Cheers
