ok let me start by saying if you want to backup your own dvd movie like lord of dogtown and or bewitched etc....you can use a free program call DVDFAB DECRYPTER, now after you have installed it run the program and it will decrypt it into a file in your computer were ever you set it to go, Now after it has finished close the program and open up dvd shrink then click on open files, from here go to the file that you have just made with dvdfab decrypter and open it...from there you should know what to do, if not there is a nice how to on this site about dvdshrink....good luck...

Iffin Ya wanted to do even a little good, you should link it to this, "Nice how to" site ~
Actually links to anything would be good,
Just offering a little guidance ~
example:
"....you can use a free program call DVDFAB DECRYPTER," you'll find it here, :
http://www.dvdidle.net/download/DVDFabDecrypter29.exe
After you download it and install it, I suggest you create a folder on your Desktop and call it, "All my DVD Work". In this folder create a second folder for your movie, "Bewitched" so you'll have a location for all of your work.
When opening DVDFab Decrypter,
In "Source" Browse for Bewitched and in "Destination" the Desktop folder where your
files are to go ~ Then "click" on Start.
"Now after it has finished close the program and open up dvd shrink", you can find DVD Shrink here:
http://www.dvdplusvideo.com/dvdshrink32setup.zip
After you download and install DVD Shrink . . . .
"open up dvd shrink then click on open files, from here go to the file that you have just made with dvdfab decrypter and open it..."
"from there", "Click" on "Backup",
Under "Quality Settings", if it's SPEED you're after, "un-tick" the box that says, "Perform deep analysis" and "un-tick" the box for "Compress the video with high quality adaptive error compensation". This will give you, in most cases, a fair to average DVD backup. This will be about the same quality as you'd get with a 1-step commercial ($$$$) program AND it will take 30 - 45 minutes using today's average PC.
If it's QUALITY you're after, and have some extra time to spend, "tick" Perform Deep Analysis" before backup to improve quality AND "tick" "Compress video with high quality adaptive error compensation." There you may adjust the Quality Enhancements. Practicing with the settings can produce even better end products. For a no-frills DVD's like "Bewitched," I like "Extra Smoothness" BUT for DVD's with a lot of special effects, I use the "Extra Sharpness" setting. That's for me, you'll have to decide what you like. If all the boxes are "grayed out" that's OK, it means your DVD is small enough that nothing will be lost from the original. :)
Finally, under "Target Device" go to "Select backup target " once there, select your burner, If you have 2 burners, select one. Where it says "Select folder for temporary files", "Browse" until you find your created folder for your backup and click, "Save". That's it! Click "OK" and DVD Shrink burns that DVD to your HD. It then opens Nero and has it burn the files 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! Go make a sandwich, watch some TV just DON'T TOUCH THE COMPUTER !
Everything up until now has been letter perfect, stealing resources from the burning process could mess the whole thing up. When we encode DVD files and when we burn DVD files it is extremely labor intensive. At these times your processor works harder than it will at anything you will ever do. Burning CD's requires extremely little in comparison so you can multi-task to your hearts content. Not so with DVD work, just something to bear in mind. OK, lecture over, off you go to have that sandwich. (Lol)
If you wish a better guide try this one,

Ya sea dude, it?s not that hard. If you want to put something down, include some direction (links) and a bit more information than, ?from there you should know what to do ?? Most pple reading this didn't know what to do . . . . that's why they were reading this . . . . Most pple who already know how to do something don't need to learn what they already know (make sense ?)
I used your words for most of the stuff, I just added to your stuff.
Take this as a bit of a guide, to help you along. It?s easy to write a guide, your heart is in the right place, just take your time and try to think to yourself when you?re writing, ?If I didn?t know anything, what do I need to read so that I can do this without too much of problem . . . . . ?
Thinking like the person reading it, will help you write it . . . .
Cheers,
Pete
