I looked around but didn't find what I'm looking for.

My son wants to copy a DVD. Just a straight copy. Nothing fancy. Are there any instructions just showing how to use DVD Shrink for a straight copy? I want to make this easy for him. Don't need to see instructions on deleting subtitles, removing this or that or explanations of each button.
Just open DVD Shrink. Push this button, wait. Push that button, wait. Insert DVD here. Burn. Pictures would be helpful.

Thank you.

DVD Shrink can't do most of today's titles but you will find everything you need by clicking on the Guides tab at the top of this page.

He's into Japanese Anime. I've copied/backed-up about 10 disks for him with no problem. I just want him to start learning how to do it himself without him always asking me at a bad time.

I've found something called copy DVD to DVD using DVD Shrink. But the description does not match what actually happens. The last part about opening Nero and using Nero to burn a DVD does not happen with me. While in DVD Shrink, after the analyzing and encoding, I just hit the burn button and it asks me to insert blank DVD disk and it starts burning automatically. Nero never opens up. I have the same looking window for burning that I do for encoding. It just says burning.

Offhand. Don't know. I'm at work right now. I think Nero IS checked somewhere in there. But its just that I do not get a Nero's window opening up. Its a DVD Shrink window from start to finish.

Shrink doesnt actually open the program, it just uses its burning engine. You wont see any Nero windows open up.

As dialysis1 has explained, DVD Shrink does have problems with many newer moviies.

You would be better off using latest versions of DVDfab Decrypter or run AnyDVD in the background
