Hi, Before I ask my question I would like to say that I have read the guides for the programs I have, but I still do not understand. Ok I would like to make backup copy's of my dvd's that will play on other dvd players not just my computer. I have dvd decryptor, dvd shrink, nero, and record now - which came with my computer. I just downloaded the current aspi settings. I've copied one dvd with record now which my dvd player read but then it said not right tv format or something like that. but record now will not read other discs in my collection that i would like to backup due to copyright. So I downloaded these other programs. Someone please help and tell me where to begin and what works the best. also thinking about getting dvd x copy or dvd x copy platinum a friend said platinum was by far the best. If you would like to be able to talk with me personally send me a private message for email or messenger address

Ok Not sure what the problem is but here is a guide from Pete:
Quote: I say, Iffin ya read da threads around here-a-bouts you'll come across an "Uncle" ScubaPete Guide - YA FOLLOW ALL THE DIRECTIONS AND ALL OF THE SETTINGS -
Anyway, it's a big thingie - Kind of looks like this -
Here we go, step by step - it can?t fail.
First create a folder for your HD backup. Try to put it someplace where you won?t forget it (i.e. C:/All DVD Work/My movie Name).
Next download DVD Decrypter and under mode select ?ISO, Write?. Un-tick the box that says ?verify?. Where it says ?source?, you?ll leave that blank as DVD Decrypter will find the location of your backed up DVD file automatically. Lastly, where it says ?Destination?, select the drive where your burner resides. Feel free to close DVD Decrypter, DVD Shrink will open it when it needs it.
The link for the newest DVD Decrypter -
http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_rippers/dvd_decrypter.cfm
Download DVD Shrink. Open it and click ?Edit?, then click ?Preferences? on this page we?re going to select ?DVD Target Size? as custom and set the size as 4360MB - we do this to make extremely sure that our disc isn?t too large. Then under the ?File I/O? tab un-tick ?Enable burning with Nero? then click ?OK?.
The link for the newest DVD Shrink -
http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_rippers/dvd_shrink.cfm
Place your original DVD in your DVD-ROM drive and a DVD blank in your burner?s drive. DO USE Ritek G04, Verbatim or media boasting ?Advanced AZO Dye. All other media could very well cause errors, only the very best media should be used for DVD Video backups. Now is defiantly not the time to put your crappy cheap stuff in - )
Now, take just a second and under ?Target Device? go to ?Select target device? once there, select ?ISO Disc Image?. NEXT, IMPORTANT, tick ?Launch DVD Decrypter to burn the output image? box. Finally, where it says ?Select target image file?, browse till you find your created folder for your backup and click ?Save?. That?s it ! Click ?OK? and DVD Shrink burns that ISO image to your HD. It then opens DVD Decrypter and has it burn the ISO image to your waiting blank DVD.
Don?t use your PC for anything at all while it?s working. -
I'M NOT KIDDING ! STAND BACK FROM THE COMPUTER !
* There have been issues where playing your DVD on your burner may result in errors during processing :-(
Enjoy,
Pete

right you have DVD Shrink and Nero xllent this is what you do :-
first off we shall set DVD Shrink up
1, open shrink and goto edit then preferences
2, click on custom and set to 4300 mb ( we do this in case of shrink wrapped media which could be damaged at the edges , thus the dvd locking up at the end of film )
3, again edit , preferences and File I/O , now check that its ticked that says enable burning with Nero.
now thats set up we shall now burn your dvd collection , as follows :-
1, put in your original dvd and open shrink
2, select open disc (now DVD Shrink will analyze your dvd )
3, click back up and select target device your dvd burner
4, click ok and off you go
simple as that , any questions get back to me but i think you should be ok .
happy burning :o)

spencerkl,
Just a couple of points....
Check out the forum rules about posting your e-mail address, you may want to edit your original post. To edit, just click on the pencil and paper icon located on the orange? bar above the post you want to edit, near the right side of the screen.
You can find Shrink/Nero Burning ROM guides here:
http://www.dvdshrink.info/
Your friend said that x copy is the best, however you can get great results from the programs you already have. No need to get anything else at this point.
Do you have both a DVD burner and a DVD ROM?

Ok, one dvd in my collection i really need a backup of, my computer and dvd player will read but they hesitate because its so scratched. now dvd decryptor and DVD Shrink won't read this disc, but when i go to reauthor on DVD Shrink it will read some of the dvd video files. Is there a way I can back up the full copy of this disc without reauthoring?

Not if your dvd is scratched so much that decrypter and shrink won't read it. You could try buying a cd/dvd scratch repair kit at wal-mart. By the way, don't throw away your record now software it also works awesomely for me.

Is there any notable differences in the posted steps for burning DVD+R as opposed to DVD-R?

Ok,
I have tried these steps for backing up dvd's. No success. What keeps happening, is i end up with segments of no audio.
I have tried the intervideo with the DVD43 and sonic recordnow, and DVD Decrypter with Nero. Can somebody help me figure out what I might have wrong?
I have a combo dvd+rw cd-rw drive and a cd-rom drive. So i have to copy to the hard drive, then burn.

Way too many apps on your rig and probably conflicts... especially Nero and RecordNow. Being new at this you should start with one, DVDShrink (and Nero to burn) and master that first. You should also figure out what media is a good match for your burner.
