Can you explain how you were able to "shrink twice". I know how to use DVD Shrink, but I don't know how to do this.....
The problem with this dvd is that the main title will not shrink smaller than a single-layer DVD. I can't get the compression to go below 55.9%, so even the main title alone will not fit, let alone the menus/extras. Before you ask, no, there's no extra audio that I could leave out, etc. I was able to get the main title to fit on a 4.5G DVD by re-authoring the DVD so it has no menus--just the main movie, and trimming the start/end frames to cut off the opening and the closing credits. But I'm not happy about this because you lose the ability to navigate to individual episodes and all the funny bonus content like the villain gallery, etc.... (and, of course, 2 seconds into the DVD, my little guy says, "Dad, why didn't it start at the beginning?")
I'm really surprised that this wouldn't compress down further given that it's a cartoon. After the 55.9% compression and trimming, the quality is fine... I think another bit of compression would be ok if it allowed me to keep all the content.
So how do you shrink twice? or is there another way to get more compression?
Thanks,
Bob

Easy
1) use shrink, out put (target) as hard disc folder (A)
2) use shrink on outputted folder (A) -> folder(B) [shrunken by shrink 2x]

Always a fine choice where quality is desired (also ease)

Thanks iluvendo. I had done the 2 dvd's back in june or july of last year, and my mind went blank on how I did them. Especially since I was doing them at work, and had to keep an eye out so my supervisor wouldn't see me.

Not if I only have Single-layer burners.... Unless you know a REALLY cool trick!!!
Seriously, I have wondered if people have success with burning to DL DVDs... Do you burn DL DVDs successfully--meaining, do they play reliably on standalone players?
Thanks,
Bob

All the DL burns i've done have come out fine. That being said, i haven't done a lot of them. At the cost of the blank media (only used Verbatim) i've stuck with SL burning for the most part. I use Dvd Rebuilder to keep the quality top notch.

Thanks iluvendo!!! That worked great. I never would have thought of doing that.... The quality is just fine too! And I haven't touched the target menu in so long I forgot there were choices... Thanks again.

I have had very good success rates using DL media, but like 7thsinger said, I also will only use Verbatim and I personally will only use imgburn for doing DL's. I tried Clone and had nothing but failure, with imgburn I have not had a single bad burn.
That said, I've probably only done a dozen or so due to cost, i reserve my DL's for high compression movies only: eg: the Godfather series.

Thanks for the tips. I'll keep an eye out for a DL burner... I usually burn on Taiyo Yuden DVD-Rs using DVDShrink --> Nero Express 6. Am I missing something not using imgburn (for SL's anyway)?

Taiyo Yuden does not, as of yet, make DL discs(if something has changed someone let me know). Stick with the Verbies! And use +R's and booktype to DVD-ROM for best compatability.

Personally i ditched Nero a long time ago in favor of ImgBurn. It's the best burn engine out there IMHO.

I just checked for DL TY discs and could find none. I'll check out imgburn. Thanks for the booktype tip. but I am curious, why DVD+R?

in the beginning, there were compatibility issues with some players and the -rtype of media. Booktyping +r's helped cure this problem. I myself always use -r's and haven't had a problem, and any newer dvd player (5 years or so) shouldn't have any issues either.
I know there are differing opinions on this, this is just mine.
and, Ty's are a top notch media, you should have no probelems with them, give imgburn a try... it's easy and in my experience more reliable than Nero.

DVDShrink has a target option for "Burn with Nero". Is there an equivalent interface for imgburn? or do I write and ISO and then use imgburn? I have been using Ripit4me and its 'almost' one-click if I use the dvdshrink->nero target....
EDIT: nm... I found a version of shrink which has a imgburn target option:
http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/521885
Thanks for the help, although it does not look like my drive will support the booktype change, and I still have a stack o' blank dvd-r anyway... I'll try imgburn anyway, just for the heck of it.

rseery, I use Ritek +R dl 2.4x (JoeRyan the media guru here at aD said these were OK). I use only Imgburn to burn dl. I burn on a Liteon external burner (Imgburn can booktype this burner to dvd-rom for best compatibility). I've done hundreds of dl's at about 99.9% success (lost 1 for some unknown reason ?)
For normal backups, I use TY's -R's and burn at 4x with Imgburn. 100% success.
Imgburn, IMHO is the best burning engine out there, and best of all, it's FREEEEEEE !
Why +R ? because +R can be booktyped/bittyped, whereas -R cannot (no use trying, it is a fact -R cannot be booktyped = bityped)
BTW you are welcome, and welcome to aD.
