I've been burning movies without a problem for a long time, but recently my DVDs haven't been coming out right. I usually use DVD Shrink to burn, but when the DVD is complete my a Windows window pops up and says that the burn couldn't be completed, although Shrink says it worked fine. When I try to play the movie nothing comes up on the DVD player. I'm relatively a newbie so I'm not sure what exactly is wrong, if it's my drive or the software. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Shrink does not burn, you must be either using Nero, DVD Decrypter or some other program to burn. What are you using?

I decrypt with DVD Decrypter, and then I shrink and burn with DVD Shrink, although I believe Shrink uses Nero to burn. This is the only way I've done it, but if there is a more efficient way I'd be glad to learn.

Sbrink is either using Nero or Decrypter to burn. Which ver. of Nero do you have, as the latest one will no longer automatically burn with Shrink, you will have to do it manually. Shrink only compresses your movie.

Version 6. So should I tell shrink to create an ISO and then burn it manually?

Here are some guides for you to look at they explain how to burn using the Shrink, Decrypter and Nero and the settings you should use.
