The current and last version of shrink can be gotten here;

If shrink is producing an error while trying to rip the video files to your HDD (when you choose/click backup), it's more than likely due to copy protection it is unable to handle/process.

For these movies, try using a free ripper/decrypter like DVDFab decrypter to rip to your HDD with. You can get it here;

Here's a guide on use if needed;

Once DVDFab is done, simply open the files it created using DVDshrink and proceed as you normally would.

Note: Sometimes shrink will have a problem opening the files created by DVDFab, in this case you can try processing the files thru VobBlanker first then open the newly created video files by VobBlanker using shrink.

Another option is to use another free app like ripit4me, you can get it here along with guides on use;

Use Anydvd and believe

Here's a list of some of the movies that DVD Shrink has trouble with and may not be able to rip by itself:

The error messages I get when I run into those newer encrypted releases are:

Invallid navigation error and Crc errors. Sometimes shrink will also freeze or gray out.

Several ways around this.
johnl123 mentioned Voblanker. I use AnyDVD by slysoft. AnyDVD will pull off that encryption with no extra step involved.Also rips cds and makes drives region-free.

I may have to give ripit4me a shot.I see a lot of posts about it.
