I'm not very computer literate,but have been using DVD Shrink recently. I was shown how to use it by a friend, and have successfully made copies of quite a few DVD's. Just lately I have been getting an error message when inserting a blank DVD in the drive. After clicking on open disk and shrink 3.1 has analysed the disk, I click on backup. When the backup is complete my computer ejects the original disk then DVD shrink asks for a blank DVD to be inserted. When I do insert a DVD it start's to burn and gets to 2% or so and then I get the error message; Copy Protection Error. I have only started having this problem recently and am annoyed. What can I do.
Shrink hasn't been updated in years and therfore cannot break the encryption on some newer movies. You need to rip the movie to your hard drive first. Use DvdFab Hd Decrypter
Thankyou for your reply. Does this DVDFab Hd Decrypter work seperately to DVD Shrink and is it simple to download.? Also is it free? Could you explain why you recommend ImgBurn. I thought that because my computer already has a Super DVD Multi burner, I wouldn't need anything else. Does this ImgBun somehow work in conjunction with DVD Shrink.

Yes, DvdFab works seperately of Shrink. You rip the movie, either full disc or main movie, to you HDD utilizing this program. And yes, the beta version is free. Just use the link i provided above.

ImgBurn works in conjunction with Shrink. It can be set up to follow up after DVDShrink does it's compressing and transcoding, and burn the files to your blank media.
Use the guide i provided in the link above and it'll take you step by step through the process. I think a lot of the questions you may have will be answered there. If you have others just post 'em here.
