When using shrink, it encodes fully immediately, but begins a negative percent( -1% completed) encode countdown says the following time remaining ex. ie 2151 hours 52 minutes and and eventially says can not complete file is corrupt. Clone2 begins the copy/read process but reaches a point and starts over automatically? I figure it must some new form of Sony encryption!
I had have the same problems with my nephews copy, the software could not read certain sectors of the DVD. Errors were coming up. So I rented another one and had the same exact problem. The software will not work if there's even one sector on the DVD that can't be read. I wonder if the industry found a sure way to a better copy protection using this technique.
Beaten to the punch, I use shrink also, but with no updates for decryption, I use AnyDVD, I rarely have any probs. You will have to shell out the bucks for AnyDVD :( but.. as paschal93 mentions, ripit will do the trick, and it's FREE(i think?)
