Hi,

I have come across a number of my DVD's that when using DVD Shrink - it won't compress enough to fit onto a blank DVD when trying to back up!

I have generally found it occurs more with my music dvd's then movies. The last time I tried - the smallest compression it would allow was about 61% - now I know with other DVD's i have been able to reduce the compression to 50% or so (although sacrificing image quality)

Any suggestions?

Some have mentioned that shrink will not compress all dvd's.I do not know how true this is becuase everyone i have used worked ok.If i do have any problem with any software i use which is normally one2one shrink and Nero.I just then put it through clone dvd as this will compress anything and is easy to use.Its just a case of leaving your disc in the drive and take it out when finished.Good quality and really simple to use.
