It's probably the movie your doing - my quess is that you receive this error when trying to back up a movie? If that's the case and w/o the complete error message or movie - I'd say try ripping w/ dvdfab decrypter 1st then process the files thru shrink. The are quite a few movies now that shrink can't handle on it own. Here's a link for dvfab decrypter:

What movie are your doing? Since you said dvdfab worked fine my quess is that you ripped it to your hard drive w/ that and receive the error in shrink trying to process those files?
Make sure you have the latest dvdfab decrypter (2.9.7.2) or AnyDVD (5.941). But if ripping w/ dvdfab decrypter turn off AnyDVD - not needed.

You could try the VOB Blanker method as it will take care of that invalid memory location thing. Rip to HD without AnyDVD and run the files thru VOB blanker, then open files as normal with shrink or recode. VOB blanker looks difficult, but it is easy to use. Here is a thread where we show how to use it.

Try backing up the movie only, without the menus or special features.

Go to "my computet", rightclick on C: drive/HDD, go to properties and tell us how much "available" space is in your C: drive/HDD.

You seem to have plenty of space for the files. Do you have all your DVD ripping tools on the same partition? If you do, and getting errors, Im sorry but I dont know whats up. I have never had any problems. If they are on different partitions try reinstalling them in the same partition, although that may not matter. Im just trying to give options.
I have a tip for you though once you get up and running again.
Use DVD43 or AnyDVD and Shrink only and your favorite recording program (Nero, DVD Decrypter...)
Insert protected DVD.
Make sure DVD43 or AnyDVD detected the protection then open shrink and tell shrink to open the protected DVD, compress as normally, and burn.
Saves a 15-20 minute step. No need to decrypt files 1st. DVD43 and AnyDVD decrypts then burns all in the same step. Or something like that. Anyways I can back up the average size DVD from beginning to end in about 45 mins. with 2.70 GHz processor

How exactly did you copy with clone? AnyDVD running in the background w/ original dvd in drive? Or did you open the files in clone ripped by fab decrypter? What blank dvd's are you using and what was your burn speed in CloneDVD? Last question I think:) - Does it playback in your pc?

Using the guides - step by step - posted above your should be able to to rip and burn these movies. But then your said it still gives you errors - what part gave you errors and what was the error? I'm having a hard time following.
Also try cleaning off the discs and make sure you are not multi tasking - shut down any unnecessary programs. Throw in a system defrag too.

AH-HA. Finally some useful info.
You can only use the VIDEO_TS folder not the AUDIO_TS.
Tell DVD Shrink to load the VIDEO_TS folder, then compress as normal and back up.

BTW. All the methods mentioned in this thread works, but you have to do it right.
Im not bustin your balls, just letting you know that they all should work if you want to experiment different methods to find the way that suits you best.
Happy burning to you, and dont forget to help other newbs find their way. This forum has been a huge help for me as I am a newb to this field, but thanks to all the support I recieved here I am quit advanced after only a month of backing up.

Did you run the files thru vobblanker as the guide listed? If so this is the video_ts folder you need to run thru shrink or recode not the one from dvdfab decrypter. If not then go back to the guide - do those steps & then process that folder from vobblanker. When you're ripping w/ fab decrypter make sure AnyDVD is off.
Also while you are doing this - do nothing else - shut everything down any unnecessary process.
I had no problems with these movies. You may have some bad discs but if your are able to rip them w/ fab decrypter - vobblanker will 'fix' any problems - my experience at least.
Oh and Memorex is iffy at best and that's being nice. In store look for verbatim or Made in Japan Fuji or Sony. If you get to the burn stage make sure you are not burning at max speed.
Good luck!

OK. Im gonna try and give step-by-step instructions.
(1) Make sure you have at least DVD43, DVD Shrink, and Nero or
DVD Decrypter installed.
(2) Make a folder on your desktop and call it latestBurn
(3) Insert your protected DVD into a DVD-ROM drive, and put a
blankDVD-R or DVD+R into your DVD/RW drive.
(4) Make sure that the yellow smiley icon from DVD43 is now green
before going to the next step.
(5) Open DVD Shrink
(6) Click "Open Disk".
(7) A dialog box should open with the title of your protected DVD
as the default selection. Click "OK".
(8) As it is loading into Shrink make sure that the status
says "Not Encrypted".
(9) After loading is complete, compress as you normally would. (if
you are new to this you should use automatic compression)
(10) Click "back up".
(11) If you are using Nero to burn mkae sure the "Select back up
target" drop-down list shows your DVD/RW drive. If you are
using DVD Decrypter to burn make sure the "Select back up
target" drop-down list shows "ISO image file and burn with DVD
Decrypter".
(12) Then click the "Browse" button and navagate to the desktop
folder you created in step 2.
(13) Click "OK".
(14) Go to lunch or get some booty (do both if your quick) and come
back in 45-75 mins and test your back up.
It would be a good idea to install DVD Decrypter because it can burn just like nero and it can find protection that may have
slipped by using other decrypting programs, plus it can create back ups by creating an ISO image (simply another way to back up).
There are many different ways to back up DVDs. Find the way that works best for you and stick with it unless you find a faster way through experiments. Im a newb, and when I started out I was using DVD Fab Decrypter to decrypt then Shrink and Nero to complete the process, taking about 1.5 hrs, but thanks to these forums and all the help from members I now use the above method and complete the process in under an hour, usually about 45 mins.
I hope you get it this time dude. Good Luck to ya.
See ya aroud the boards.
PS. If you dont care about having a menu (play button, scene selectinn, etc.) on your back ups I would recomend using the
"re-author" option in DVD Shrink. You will get 100% on your compression level (best quality) on any 2hr DVD you decide to
back up.
