First-time posting, I have read a lot of the posts and I have not seen this subject. New to this but here goes.
I am using a Lite-on SOHW-8125 dual layer DVD burner with TDK TTG01 DVD-R media, they were on sale at Best Buy!
I used Shrink and then DeCrypter on the following movies that I recently purchased: Monster, Blue Collar Comedy Tour, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, SWAT. The first four movies went just fine but when I went to burn Texas Chainsaw it just kept "writing lead-in" and never started writing anything else. I thought that it may take a little longer since I haven't done this before, but I let it go for over an hour. I had to shut down my comp. I wasted four DVD's trying to burn two different movies and do not really feel like wasting any more. Am I missing something? I'm starting to think that my first few burns were beginner's luck. Thanks in advance.

So you couldn't write TX Chainsaw and two other ones? What are your steps? And your problem is ... it won't write, right?

I followed the same steps as outlined in the guide titled "Copy DVD to DVD-R using DVD Decrypter (DVDs smaller than 4.36GB)" found in this forum. The strange thing is; I went to bed last night and I forgot that Decrypter was still running. When I got up this morning there was an error, cannot remember what the error was (pretty sleepy yet). After I hit OK on the error message Decrypter started writing the DVD. I am watching it right now. Not sure what the deal was.
