Hello,
I'm attempting to burng "mystic river". It says on the back of mystic river that it is dual layer. I've tried twice burning and both times made coasters for myself. I used dvdshrink to back it up on my harddrive. I used Cdburner XP pro both times to burn it. The burn process completes successfully each time, but when I open the disk on my dvd rom drive or on my dvd player it gets an error on the player and just opens a folder on the computer and wont open in the dvd rom player. Help before i make a third coaster :(
the site i downloaded it from said it was capable to make dvds..
i have a rather naive question since i asked my first....do i need a "dual layer" blank dvd and "dual layer" dvd writer to make this from? i know the cd is "single" and im not sure about the writer...
so if i take a dual layer disk, put it through dvdshrink, make a video_ts folder out of it, then use say 1click dvd to burn a dvd out of it...it should work right?
U r using a ripping program before DVD Shrink right?
Here is a guide were u can follow for all the steps to copy a commerical dvd, u can get the links for all the programs in the guide. the program is called Ripit4Me

no im not using a ripping program....i just put the commercial dvd as u say into my dvd burning drive....open dvdshrink....it analyzes it....then...i 'back it up' on my harddrive...then..i opened 1click...put in the folder i wanted to make a dvd out of and hit burn...and for somereason it worked this last time...no idea why...whats the differance if i use a ripping program to take it off the commercial dvd or use shrink to back it up...its essencially the same thing isn't it?
Well if it is a newer movie then shrink will not be able to do it, becuz DVD Shrink has not been updated for like 2 years so the newer movies have better protection that shrink cant break, and that is the reason why people rip with programs first, then use shrink.
but u can just use shrink for older movies, forgot u were trying to do Mystic River.

Is this another burning program?
Why not try IMGburn,its a very good burning program
