I have never had a problem with Shrink until now. The current DVD I have won't work with Shrink. It won't read the DVD. Is there new protection that won't work with Shrink? The movie is "Tsotsi".
Download DVDFab Decrypter(free)...This will break all the latest encryptions while ripping the entire movie to your HDD..Then just use shrink to compress then burn with your usual burnning engine.
Quote:AnyDVD works in the background to automatically remove the copy protection of a DVD movie as soon as it's inserted into the drive, allowing you then to backup the movie using a DVD backup tool such as CloneDVD and CloneDVD mobile. You can also remove the RPC region code, thereby making the movie region free and viewable on any DVD player and with any DVD player software.
AnyDVD is capable of removing unwanted movie features, including subtitles and prohibition messages such as copyright and FBI warnings. It also allows you to launch an external application whenever you insert or remove a disc, or prevent 'PC-friendly' software from automatically launching when you insert a video DVD.
Decryption is not all that AnyDVD offers. You can control the drive speed of your DVD drive, allowing you to reduce the noise level when watching movies on your PC. You can even adjust the display frequency of your monitor for both NTSC and PAL displays.
But AnyDVD doesn't just stop at DVDs. It also decrypts protected audio CDs to allow you to copy them.
if you still have a problem with shrink after using dvdfabdecrypter, download and process the dvdfabdecrypter output file through vobblanker (see download link below) and then use shrink. i did tsotsi without a problem, but i routinely use vobblanker so i don't know if it is necessary in this case or not.
