I've downloaded and installed DVD Shrink 3.2
I have coppied a movie/DVD to a subfolder on my C drive (DVD-BU) and its there as I checked via exploer.

When I go to Back up, in the Select Back Up Target, the only option I get is ISO Image File, not my burner.

The Target Image file is the C:\DVD-BU file
The DVD is a burner and is working as I have seen the movie.

I have a brand new Dell w/ WinXP.

I have Nero 5.0 but would rather not use it. I have installed that and it is still not recognized.

I have installed ImgBurn then Shrink. But my sister who has Shrink, never installed ImgBurn and has had no problems with it.

If I understand what you're saying (and I may not), you're looking to burn directly from Shrink? If so, it can't do that since Shrink is NOT a burner. You can set up Shrink to open a burning program (like Decryptor, Nero, or Imgburn).

The option checked to rip it into an ISO file is better than having random files burned to a DVD.

Latest AnyDVD to rip > VOBB to blank the unwanted on a DVD > Shrink to compress > ImgBurn to burn = Never starting a thread asking how to backup a movie

Hi J4Dad
Mr_Pink is right Shrink is not a burner - relies on other programs burn engine. For your burner to show under back up target Nero Burning Rom needs to be installed.
Does your version of Nero 5 have this app of Nero?

Shrink will also autoburn w/ImgBurn just needs a tweak. Here's a link w/ guide:

Or you can install Decrypter (same developer as ImgBurn except decrypter also rips but is no longer updated). Guide w/ a link to download:

May not work with a serial # from 5 but you can try 6.6.0.18 - last version of Nero 6 to autoburn w/ Shrink.
Package 1 (burning rom, express etc)
http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Ner....0.18_no_yt.exe

Package 2 (recode & vision)
http://httpdl1.usw.nero.com/software/Nero6/NVE-3.1.0.21_no_yt.exe

ImgBurn and Decrypter are great programs too & free - I use them too.
Give them a shot.

Keep us posted (curious on the Nero 6 w/ 5 serial)

Do you know Shrink has an "update" so you dont have to swap files around to use ImgBurn? Much easier.

Yeah that was part of my tweak bit w/ the link:)

Think I'll bookmark your's too - just to go straight to the download if they already have imgburn.
Txs!

AH HA! Sorry Binkie, I shouldve checked your link. As little as a few days ago, links were still being traded on other threads about how to do all the file swapping to get ImgBurn to run when it really says Decrypter (without the shrink update), and at first glance it looked like your link. I shouldve known better:)
