DVDshrink is no longer updated so it can't handle the new sony or microvision copy protection being placed on some of the new movie releases, this can cause it to stop encoding or produce an error condition and more.
Keeping it FREE:
****************
To get around this use a very good free ripper/decrypter called DVDFab decrypter, it'a a whole movie ripper so you'll still need DVDshrink to reauthor the DVD if you want to remove any unwanted extras and shrink the files to fit onto a single layer DVD.Once DVDFab is done ripping, open the files using DVDshrink's open files tab and proceed using DVDshrink as usual, have shrink create an iso image that you can burn to disk using DVD decrypter in ISO write mode.
Once DVDFab is done ripping the files to yur HDD, you can then try and open the files using DVD shrink and process as usual. If shrink gives you an error when trying to open the files, your going to have to process them thru vobblanker first before using shrink, if this is the case see the next step.
NEXT STEP IF NEEDED**** Once DVDFab decrypter is done, you'll have a VIDEO_TS forlder on your hard drive containing the files it ripped. These files will need to be processed thru vobblanker to remove fake cells and correct file structure so shrink can open the files and process them correctly.
Unzip the file and run the executable, it will look a bit like this:
For input folder selection:
browse to where the VIDEO_TS folder created by DVDFab decrypter is located, inside the folder, look for the VIDEO_TS.IFO file and choose it.
The path might look something like this:
c:\DVD Movie\VIDEO_TS\VIDEO_TS.IFO
Note: When importing the VIDEO_TS.IFO file, if you notice that vobblanker has marked a video title set (VTS) in the top half as skipped, click on the Proc.All button on the right to ensure all video title sets are processed.
For output folder selection:
create a new folder on your desktop and call it "MOVIE", inside that folder create a new folder and call it "VIDEO_TS "(this is where you'll have vobblanker put the output files it will create)
Once the folders have been created, have the output folder selection piont to the VIDEO_TS folder in the MOVIE folder.
The path for output folder might look something like this:
c:\documents and settings\johnl123\desktop\MOVIE\VIDEO_TS
Now just press the PROCESS button on the bottom and wait until it's done. Once the process is complete, there should be a new set of video files that vobblanker created in the VIDEO_TS folder that's in the MOVIE folder on your desktop.
At this point run DVDshrink and open the files, click on the "open files" tab and browse to where the VIDEO_TS folder is that's in the MOVIE folder on your desktop and choose it. Shrink will import the files now correctly with no errors, at this point you can use shrink as you normally would to create a backup. Have shrink reauthor the DVD to backup just the main movie and 5.1 eng audio channel, have shrink create an ISO image and burn it to disk using DVD decrypter.
hello johnl123
i piggyed back on newbie question about narnia and (i think) successfully copied narnia with dvdfab and voblanker program. have to admit, got a bit dubious a times and it looked a bit too clever for something i would normally try, but appreciate your advice and help.
much appreciated. am coping as i type so i am sure it will work okay.
have to also admit the instruction you gave made it so easy to do the whole process. thank you
