Sorry if this was discussed before. I read the thread about HD movies being to big for DL discs. But has anybody tried ripping just the movie and using dvdshrink's Dual layer option? If this did work would the movie really be in HD or do you need an HD-DVD burner? Are there any HD-DVD burners on the market?

DVDShrink will not be able to recognize a ripped HD movie (BluRay or HD DVD). The directory folders and file structures are totally different from regular DVD's. You can't use DVDShrink to process HD rips.

Thanks for the response. So is there no way that you can get the HD movie rip to a size that fits on a DL disc?

Remember something very basic.....HD video is in 720P, 1080i or 1080P resolutions. DVD video is typically 576 in PAL or 480 lines in NTSC.
So even if shrink or other DVD authoring software was able to convert & "compress" HD video to DVD discs of single or dual layer, the output would be MPEG 2 DVD standard. Not HD.

Thanks for helping a newbie like myself out with this. So there is no way to back up my HD movies unless I buy the Blu-ray internal dvd burner and the BD discs?

You got it.
Of course you could back them up to your PC's Hard drive. You don't necessarily have to burn them!!

I haven't used nero for Burning HD DVD on a regulard DVD. I have however burned HD DVD's on regular DVDs. It was a 5 minute clip that I used to test, and to my suprise, it played on the Xbox 360 add on. I thought was just a marketing quote from Ulead Movie Factory but sure enought they backed it up.
I tried burning a half an hr show but the software froze on the converting process, it kept on converting for about 5 hrs, Don't know why. It was taking too much time from me so just dropped it.
