Hello guys.
I've been using DVD Shrink for a few weeks now and love it, but I'm a bit puzzled by a few thing I've been seeing...

House of a 1000 Corpses. In the Audio window it says
1. AC3 2-ch Unspecified 33MB
1. AC3 6-ch English 284MB
2. AC3 2-ch English 187MB
3. AC3 2-ch English 187MB
4. AC3 2-ch English 187MB
1. AC3 2-ch English 63MB

Why all the AC3-2ch English 187MBs??
How many should I leave ticked whilst backing up the movie only?

My second question is regarding The Zero Boys (and one or two others I've seen like this). Whilst on the Re-author screen, title 2 and 3 both contain file sises of 4,683 - the movie. Why is it included twice? Is it just a mistake, this is the third film I've seen like this. The box cover doesn't say there's 2 versions on the disc (like Jason Goes to Hell for example)

My third question. for the same movie, When I press Open Disk and the movie preview flies by, every so often I think I see words flashing by which say SPRUCE. Tell me you've seen this too and that I'm not going mad and that it doesn't show up on my back up :(

Thanks for reading, hope you can help

For House of 1000, i would just leave it all in there and shrink it. Thats what i did and you cant tell it was compressed. For the second question, one is probably widescreen and the other fullscreen. As for the third question, i don't know what to tell you.

one is for directors cut and one is for surrond 6 channel aand one is for two speaker idunno the other ones never run into that problem. AS far as titles widescreen and fullscreen i don't know what the other one is 16:9 and 4:3 is all iknow. The dif. aspect ratios will show up as title one and title two in shrink 3.0 beta 5. as far as which is which try trial and error thats all i know but someone else might know more.

The only audio needed is AC3 6CH

The 2nd question is that there probably is a widescreen & 4:3 [full-screen] versions.
If you run them through DVD2One for the compression part instead it'll show two title sets at the same length , they are not always the same but normally the top option is 4:3

As for the 3rd question , dont know what you're on about & I'm not even gonna attempt to answer in any way,shape or form ; )

To be honest, i agree with Herbsman. Even if you have a stereo tv just take the AC3 6 ch and get rid of the rest.
