If you did a Full Disc Back-Up. You must have used a DVD+R DL (Dual Layer), as I KNOW it was way too big to back up the entire disc to a DVD5 disc with decent results. (Single Layer)

I actually did a Full Disc Backup, using Shrink w/Nero, and AnyDVD running. It looks great on my JVC 36" crt tv. Once I get the HD big screen I want (gonna be awhile), it may look horrible on it. We'll have to see how that goes...... :o)

FYI, I do full backups and they look just fine on my 52" widescreen.

falv125,

Open Shrink, select Edit; Preferences; Stream Selections and then put a check in the box that says "Disable all subpicture except menus and forced streams"

As a footnote, in Shrink if you are just doing main movie (you really dont need menus as your remote will move you between chapters) select Re-author, double click main movie, select Compression Settings, un-check all audio except AC3 5.1-ch English(unless it only shows a lesser English) and also make sure all subtitles (if any are forced) are un-checked.

I would keep my native language for subtitles, in backing up just the main movie. You never know if you might need it. Sometimes it's hard to understand exactly what's been said and it's easy just to wind back and check subtitle.

If you select Edit; Preferences; Stream Selections and then put a check in the box that says "Disable all subpicture except menus and forced streams", you'll end up WITHOUT the necessary english subtitles that come on only during the French dialogue. Evidently it is not a "forced stream" that Shrink recognizes as being essential to the main movie.

@JVC,Why do you use SHRINK with AnyDVD? I used this method back when DVD43 was popular as it was sometimes necessary back then, but AnyDVD is a far superior software more capable of handling tough encryption. I find that you make shorter time of just using AnyDVD along with Nero 7 Recode2. The reason I ask because I think perhaps this combination of software with AnyDVD is a force of habit with many members that can cause a host of errors. I used to also use SHRINK quite frequently but in the last year or so with the constant AnyDVD improvement updates I have found that 99% of movies I choose to back up with the toughest encryption like Arccos & or RipGuard are done simply using AnyDVD and Nero 7 Recode2 on occasion I have found the need to use to use CloneDVD2 along with AnyDVD but that's it. I would suggest that you try the same approach and you will see how effecient AnyDVD is along with the time you save.:P

I use Shrink with AnyDVD because I like it. I've tried Recode2, and didn't like it. It's way slower than my Shrink. When I run into a movie that Shrink won't do, with AnyDVD, I break out the CloneDVD, and use that. I like Shrink, and it works 99% of the time.

Shrink w/Nero, and AnyDVD, or CloneDVD and AnyDVD, is about all I use anymore. I've never used RipIt4Me yet either, because I've not needed to. I started to try Vob Blanker once, but asked myself, "why am I doing this? I don't need it, as long as my regular stuff works". I deleted it, and haven't messed with it anymore yet. Maybe one day, I'll give it a try, if my Shrink and AnyDVD, or CloneDVD doesn't work.

I use DVD Decrypter to burn DL discs. I've never been able to get IMGBurn to work right. I've tried it three times. DVD Decrypter and AnyDVD, have done every DL disc I've burned, without problems.

You'll notice people having problems with Disney and Sony movies, using DVDFab, Recode2, RipIt4Me, IMGBurn..........all the different programs, that a lot of folks use. I don't have problems with Disney and Sony movies........ :o)

All this is why!

@N2DVD

I for one use AnyDVD and NeroRecode 6.6.0.18, BUT Nero Recode does not play well with SONY Arcoss encryptions; it freezes. Nero 7 might but Nero 6.6. won't on my pc. I don't bother any more trying Recode with Sony. Shrink with AnyDVD will do any movie, I believe. I use Recode for everything else. JM2C

Edit: Unlike JVC, I've been lucky enough to have gotten ImgBurn to work in Decrypter's place (I still it have tho) and I use ImgBurn to do all my DL burns. It's a shame that DLs are still too pricy to use all the time because ImgBurn or Decrypter can do 'em quite easily.

Nero Recode is nearly 2 times faster than DVD Shrink. Nero Recode will/can produce better quality than both DVD Shrink and CloneDVD. Been using DVDFAB Decrypter and or RipIt4Me with Nero Recode for ages and I've "never" experienced any DVDs that I can not rip or backup.

Same here, with DVD Shrink w/Nero, and CloneDVD, and of course, AnyDVD is always running in the background.

Hey fella's I don't want the thread to go south...I just want some open dialog as it pertains to apprroaches we all take in backing up our DVD's. I'm not challenging anyone here. I just saw SHRINK as an extra step when used with AnyDVD. As garmoon mentioned he experiences hang-ups and pauses with Nero Recode on Sony Arccos encrypted films and this may be becuase of the version you use though I personally stick with 1 version I have not chosen to update as I have thus far never have had a reason to. Nero 7 or 6 Recode2 has made easy work of backing up the toughest encrypted films.

Decrypting software speed can vary depending on your PC's set up i.e. adequate memory and processor speed. My older 2002 online PC is much slower than my offline newer 2004 PC which has a 3.2 H/T pentium 4 but does not change AnyDVD & Recode2's ability to ultimately back up a given film effectively. My objective with inquiring here is in asking those who back up DVD's to take notice to exactly how and what they are using technique wise when backing up a given film. After using so many different approaches and software now both free and purchased. I have settled with primarily using AnyDVD. As it has proven to be a superior decrypting software both in decrypting and saving time.

I often emphasize to anyone that if you are using AnyDVD in my experience there is no need to combine any other decrypting software unless one is seeking to edit or benefit from a added or alternate feature that an additional decrypting software may have or include. i.e. Vob Blanker and it's ability to decrypt as well as edit a given DVD or like with CloneDVD and its ability to retain the menu in "Movie Only" mode. I read every week where a member here inquires about a given title and the tough time they are having in backing the movie up either to disc or hard drive.

I have often backed up this same titles with no trouble at all and quickly using AnyDVD and Nero and I just want anyone that will listen to know that there is an easier far less complicated means of backing up your DVD's with just AnyDVD and a non-decrypting burning software of your choice.:P

On speed (on my 2.26 pentium4-512MB)pc, Recode is a lot faster than Shrink. Twice as fast? I don't know. This recoding is all about how big a chunk has to be recoded. I recoded an ISO file from a DL burn, with shrink that took over an hour to do, about 8GB (POTC2). I do mostly just the movie when I don't use DL discs. So start to finish with recode depending on the file with AA and slow encoding checked can take 35 mins or less on the average.

When I said Recode was way slower than my Shrink, you had to jump in and say how it's twice as fast as Shrink! Basically, calling me a liar! (Wonder why I got issue? I can't imagine....) I don't make this stuff up. If it's faster on your computer, good for you! Shrink is faster on MY computer. Therefore, to me, Shrink is faster! End of story!

A few months back, garmoon tried to help me get Recode working faster, but we never got it worked out. So, he knows, from back then that Recode runs slow on my computer. It runs in 1:1 time. In Recode, a two hr. movie, takes two hrs. to complete. Since it is so much trouble to deal with, I gave up on it. I really don't need it, so it doesn't bother me.

Seriously dude, you got issue. Re-read everything over. I was simply stating the truth that Nero Recode is faster than DVD Shrink. I never quote you or called you liar, yet you jumped in quote; "When did you use my computer?"

So tell me who's got issue here? When did I called you a LIAR?

You don't come right out and say it. You say it in a round about way. This won't the first time either, but I'm not gonna spend hours searching through threads, to post links to your other times.

See......you did it again! Just stating the truth? That is not the truth, on my computer! Because it's true for you, doesn't mean it is for everybody! You don't seem to be able to comprehend the truth, because you keep saying, that what I said, isn't true. It IS true!
So, I'll not say much more, or the mods will be getting into it.

You go ahead and tell everyone that the way a program acts on your computer is the only way it is. It's twice as fast as another program, even though that isn't so, in all cases, no matter what anyone else says. You're the only one that knows how to do something right. I bow to your superior knowledge.

Yes folks.......even though Shrink runs much faster than Recode2, on my computer, Recode2 is twice as fast as Shrink! It is, it always has been, and it always will be! So don't use anything but Recode2......

This is so rediculous, to argue over something this trivial! I just don't like being called a liar, when I say how something acts on my computer, whether it's straight to my face, or whether it's in a round about way, like you did it. This is the last I'm saying about this, in this thread.

Dude, I'm here to help out others (newbies) that needed helps and trying to solve what needs to be resolved. What I did was merely stating "what works for me" and "what I used," simple as that. I don't go around and attack members for useless matter and or quote them in such provokingly manner. Evidently when I quoted someone; (1) it's either I've been quoted by a member. (2) they're seeking/asking for my assistant. (3) simply because I want to help the individual by my own free will.

Now let see who's the one that can't cope in this thread? Unfortunately, seems like you're the one who doesn't comprehend a thing I said or posted. My post is "universal" (pretty straight forward), it WAS for anyone that read this thread or whoever that come across this thread. Yet you're the first to jump in and attack me for whatever (unkown) reason?
Quote:

Isn't this ironic or childish or perhaps you had something to "disagree" with me? If so, then spit it out, let's elaborate and see what's up.

Don't take it seriously dude, but again, here's my reply. Read it, re-read it and simplify it to see if what I said is anything harmful to you. I never said DVD Shrink and CloneDVD sucks, did I?

My reply is here for newbies or whoever come across this thread and wants to know how's DVD Shrink compare to Nero Recode only. It's "not" for you, matter of fact, it WAS never meant for you. I never diss you and or called you a liar, you're the one who called yourself a liar.

Now you tell me who's got issue? You're barking at the wrong tree here and next time don't jump into conclusion prior to attacking/quoting someone. Again, don't even talk about the TRUTH because you "can't" handle the truth. However, as you wish because you asked for it. Yes, I know, we all know, everyone knows (except you). The TRUTH is Nero Recode is nearly 2 times faster than DVD Shrink, end of story.

I use Nero 7 Recode2 version 2.2.7.2 again which has never been updated since I purchased it, Along with AnyDVD which I just updated to 6.0.9.2 These two programs working along side each other I find are the most successful and also the most time efficient means of backing up any DVD I have encountered within the last 6 or so months. Including Arccos or RipGuard protected DVD's All and any DVD back up done with absolute ease. AnyDVD is a powerful software with many features and is sold alone because of this. Many members here compare it to DVD43 and though there are some design similarities AnyDVD is constantly updated and thus far more powerful and reliable. Give AnyDVD the chance to work absent of any other decrypter and along with a non-decrypting burning software of your choice. If your using AnyDVD 6.0.9.2 or any prior recent version you do not need to combine AnyDVD with any of the folllowing DVDFab, DVD Decrypter, RipIt4Me, or initially with CloneDVD2 which is a complete decrypter and burning software all in itself. AnyDVD is more than this softwares title. Let AnyDVD do it's thang you will not be disappointed.

Wow did this thread get off topic. It sounds like there needs to be a thread titled " Ripping and Burning Software Debated Here" LOL

On Topic: As far as DaVinci Code goes, you will have to leave in the English subtitles on this one. I usually remove all subtitles, but on this one if you do that you remove the french translations to english as well. Other movies in the past that I have removed subtitles, they have still kept the parts of the main movie translations from a different language to english, but not this one.


btw, sevgomz,

I can not remember when I used a 321 Studios product. It was my first burning software. Moved on a long time ago. But then again, that is a whole other topic for another thread. :)

we just got some passionate people here, some of free tools, some of AnyDVD. that's cool, we all have our way our ways of doing stuff. For instance I personally still haven't got around to buying AnyDVD, no reason other than slysoft only take Visa which i don't possess. No biggie as i have the awesome DVDFab Decrypter, and there's always ripit4me which i try to keep genned up on, even though i haven't used it yet, however i do recommend it to others, and i must get around to try it as it's supposed to work in Linux know, so i've got every excuse to check it out sometime sooner than i would have otherwise..

You're living in the past dude, there are other programs that are one click to backing up a movie and ALL of them are better than X copy Plat. But it's what you like that matters. And how much did you shell out for XCP? Not many supporters here since the first incarnation of 321 bailed on it's users.

@creaky I'm just the opposite. I do have AnyDVD (to all it's up to 6.0.9.2) and DVD Fab decrypter, I use AnyDVD and keep Fab up to date and play with it a little. With so many options it's hard to have everyone agree to the best program out there. It's what you have mastered on your pc that counts and with what you are happy.

Do you think we have passionate people! LMAO
