koola,
We better take it easy. Let the boys use their 321 (ripoff) in peace.
Samuels, I'm sorry if that peeved you off. You're right though. Some people prefer to let a one clicker program do all the work.
Dvd Shrink is free though, and I have had no errors with it, not once and I have 2000 dvd's and growing.
With DVD Shrink you have the power to shrink what you want to make more room for what you do want, in the end, giving you a better disc.
But use 321. I support them fighting for fair use rights, and at least you're money is going to something useful, unlike the multibillion dollar nerd at microsoft.
peace

True, 321 is fighting for us and we should respect their software.

Hi Samuels, You noticed the pixelation with DVD Shrink too. Its usually from over compression. I get more with Shrink on large movie only backups, but never with Xcopy. I guess the shrink users never noticed that. I use Ritek G4 disks for final backup but always check long movies with a RW disk first.X copy express does a better job of compression in my opinion. I sure others out there will say I'm wrong but I have checked this several times to be sure. It really shows up on a 56 inch wide screen TV.

Well you just carn't use DVD Shrink then Jerry746. If you know what your doing, DVD Shrink is far better than 321 software!

If you are multitasking when the disk is shrinking you will cause pixelation. This has been my experience with shrink.

my brother in law uses DVD Shrink and he has been experiencing problems with it too....however he is giving one more chance,he definately knows what he is doing,as he is pigging me because my backups are turning out far more superior than what shrink is/has for him.
you choose to use shrink,thats fine,but i can assure you,that jerry and i aren't the only ones that swear by xpress.

I keep saying to the senior members that I don't just use X copy express. My desktop screen looks like a recording studio. There are movies out there that X copy doesn't like and some that Shrink doesn't like. I switch back and forth as needed. I have Nero 6- Roxio 6- Burn at Once-and Hp Record now which came with the Burner. I built a new computer around my 2 burner drives just for burning from a KL33 mother board I had laying around with a AMD 1.3 processor. Its networked into my 2 laptops and another desktop I use from other things. I can monitor the burns from whatever computer I am on. So I actually use all the programs at different times. What ever works best for the movie I am backing Up. Thanks for the backup Samuels. Jerry

This is proberly a good time to introduce a new program that never seems to mess up or reject DVDs.
CloneDVD!
Give this program a go and see how much better it is than X Copy, Express and even Shrink!
Have a go if you've got what it takes.

One of the more recent problems I had with X copy express was Monsters Inc. I seem to see more problems with Disney animated than regular movies.
I hear Nemo is trouble too but haven't tried it yet. Express burned to the hard drive ok, Then on the way back to the blank dvd burned 5 minutes then finalized. Good thing it was on a RW disk.

Yep and they all beat Express hands down on quality and clarity!
I have a rather large collection of VCD,SVCD,DivX,XviD and DVDs which have nearly all been backed up without Express and they are all PERFECT!

Anybody know where I can get the older version of dvdshrink? Or does anybody know how to operate the beta version's compression. I guess I am a little confused. THe help online seems to show compression of the separate files but the beta version does not. Any ideas? thanks,\.

I was wondering what language was 321gone is written in and would you be willing to email me or post the code on your website. I am using DVD platinum v 3.2 and from the looks of this thread it won?t work properly. I just like to play around with it and see what I can do.
Thanks
Adam
If at first you don't succeed call it Version 1.0

I did a back up of Nemo. It was movie only and worked perfectly until the very end. This could have been caused by cheap media. I used DVD2One and DVD Decrypter.

OK back to the original post.... I signed up just to thank PsiDOC, this thing works no more annoying dvd-backup message, thanks!!!
I myself use dvd decypter then DVD2One and recordnowMAX to burn. but I have a friend who is still reading the book "windows for idiots" and calls me at least 5 times a day when trying to back up a dvd movie, so I was messing with dvdcopy xpress and I think this will be a lot easier for him to use and will stop bothering me. =) and with PsiDOC little program it makes it even sweeter, because now when I borrow my friends backed up dvds it wont have the "dvd backup message" which is all good =)
