Alright Thanks For The Answer And For The Advice. And Yes The Bottom Of My National Treasure Disk Did Have A Couple Of Serious Scratches On It. I Assume Thats Why It Was Giving It Such A Hard Time.
But I Am Officailly Backing Up The 40 Year Old Virgin As We Speak.

That was probably the case with National Treasure. You could try resurfacing it and see if that alleviates your problem. It might take a few resurfaces though and you may need to concentrate specifically on those scratches depending on how bad they are. Or you can always try another copy.

Some people are a lot like slinkies. They aren't really good for anything but you can't help laughing when one tumbles down the stairs.

Now, after it finished making .ISO

open up DVD Decrypter and click File --> ISO --> Write, and then click "Select a File" and find the ISO and put in your disc and press on the Image.

And then sit and wait to be finished.

To make it faster next time make sure that when you go to encode and burn your rip that under Select Target Device you select your DVD burner and not the ISO Disc Image (I assume that is what was selected).

-------EDIT--------
BTW TAshkar18, great idea using youtube. I need to do that as well. I think people would find that less confusing sometimes. Plus it's just a great idea. Kudos!

No it wasnt. I didnt have Nero Downloaded so it wasnt an option. So now after encoding it onto my hard drive. (stupid mistake) i have to encode it again but now into an iso. and to burn it i will use alcohol (.iso burning program). but im sure it would be alot quicker just to select my burner right away...

Once you have Nero and your DVD drive is an option to choose in Shrink you will find it a much faster process. See I told you it wasn't that difficult. You just have to learn by doing and you'll get better as time goes on. Basically it comes down to feeling comfortable navigating the different types of software.

Yes, Very understandable. Now, After i Backup My Disks I Should Delete All Encrypted Files Just To Save Space On MY PC Right?

Actually they would be the Decrypted files (semantics, I know) but yes you can. You may want to save them until you test out your burn. Here is something you can use later once you have Nero and Shrink functioning together. If you want to make another copy of a movie you just did you can go to File --> Open and open up the folder used for temporary files that you selected in the Backup DVD window. It will run through a preview again but when it is done the file you will be backing up this time will already be compressed and it will make your second burn go by much faster. Just a tidbit I thought I would pass along.
