DVD Shrink can not shrink/compress any PS2 games period. DVD Shrink can only shrink/compress and transcode dvd movies (VIDEO_TS or movie's ISO image) only. Below are some useful tools for rebuilding (same thing as compressing, but PS2 has a term called "rebuilding" instead of "shrinking or compressing" PS2 games).

<><> tools needed <><>

<> Apache 2 or Apache 3 (to extract the ISO layers)
<> ISO Buster Pro or the free version (to extract the layer and layers "PRO version only")
<> Gnie's ExPERT or Gnie's IML2ISO version 4 (to rebuild the IML file into ISO into DVD5)
<> CD DVD GEN 1.5 (to generate or produce the IML file)
<> DVD Decrypter (to rip the whole ISO Image from the game and to burn)
<> Nero Express or Nero Burning Rom (to burn the ISO Image)
<> ImgBurn (to burn the ISO Image)

For more info on how to rip, burn and rebuild PS2 games, visit my link "Easy Methods to rebuild PS2 games" under my sig. or visit the PS2 DVD Discussion forum.

Good luck!!

WARNING: Do not "update/upgrade" your SAMSUNG BD-D5XXX series (Bluray Player), or else you cant enjoy any of your movie files.

shrink will not copy a ps2 game. decrypter will, you do not need to use shrink.
to use decrypter -

open decypter
click "mode"
select iso >
read

select where on your hard drive you want the image to rip to

then decrypt

to write -
open decypter
click "mode"
select iso >
write

then find the iso image you made on your hard drive

burn at the slowest speed possible 1X or 2x preferably & make sure you use good quality media.
