I am using dvd decrypter and videora ipod converter.

The box set is family guy volume 6.

It is in IFO and I've followed all instructions. Can someone please help
Re DVD Decrypter, try something up to date such as DVDFab HD Decrypter (free) - http://www.dvdfab.com/free.htm and as to videora ipod converter, that's a spammer's program of choice, i'd avoid. There's (for instance) the very good AutoGK (free) - http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_...pers/autogk.cfm

DVD Shrink is freeware, it always has been and always will be. DVD Shrink 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 are scams. Never pay for DVD Shrink...ever!

DVD Shrink is a versatile freeware tool for fitting a DVD-Video disc on a single DVDR disc.

DVD Shrink is capable of both re-authoring and re-encoding the movie. It features an intuitive user interface which makes it easy to choose what to keep, and what to lose.

DVD Shrinks allow the user to select compression level for each video track separately to obtain the desired disc size (which is usually below 4.38GB). The software is capable of producing either an ISO image of the ripped DVD, or a VIDEO_TS folder for further processing, viewing or burning.


I have read through the DVD Shrink guide and thought that one thing could be added to it... what to do when DVD files will not compress to a 4.7GB dvd on the first attempt. I think that re-authoring and re-shrinking should be brought up, as well.

I no longer use the program, but have seen the question arise numerous times about DVD Shrink not compressing to a 4.7 in one try and people puzzled as to what to do.

It may also be a good idea to mention that DVD Shrink has not been updated since 2005 and is no longer supported... and cannot handle newer dvd encryptions alone.

I'm not sure if you were picking on my post or not. I was just saying that fact should be added to the DVD Shrink guide.

@vballstud

Changes to the guides should be directed at the authors or admin/staff members who can make such amendments. The guides aren't mine and I cannot edit them.

I liked the whole post except where a person said"nero probly the best cd/dvd authoring tool out there"
I find "nero" to be a bloated piece a crap that screws vista ultimate up..............bad!!!
I wouldn't put it on my worst enmeys computer
on vista ultimate use:
ashampoo burning studio
vso convert x 2 dvd
ashampoo movie shrink
k-lite mega codec
xilisoft dvd creator
clone dvd 2.9.2.0

I have no trouble with these programs and get perfect quality movies
although there are problem movies from time to time and like me
your on your own there it's just trial and error at that point

but to end I'll say it again IF YOU HAVE VISTA ULTIMATE AND WANT ALL YOUR DREAMS THUMBNAILS , ECT.......TO WORK.....THEN DON'T USE NERO!!! I can't speak for all versions of vista just ultimate but since I removed it a year ago I have no vista troubles

That's a dang shame. Both had some killer guides.

What can I use to eliminate the region code on DVDs. I have some from Australia that I need to play in US. I have found resources to make a player "region free", how can I make the disc region free?

If you read the guides, you'll notice most of the programs are free.
