I have been using DVD-shrink for a long time with great success but I recently got the following message on both my Desktop and my Laptop:
"DVD-Video files reallocation failed"
I tried different media and different movies. I reloaded the drivers for my DVD drives and reloaded Nero 7.0. The message appeard prior to the burning of the DVD. Can anyone offer a fix?
Thanks!
The rest of the error message is as follows:

"DVD-Video files reallocation failed" just means you've not quite done something in ripping stage correctly, which triggers Nero to complain with that error.. ie Nero doesn't want to burn because it thinks the files aren't fully compliant..
I have tried at least 10 different movies on two different computers and all have failed. The movies I tried were backups so Nero burned them at least once before. Any Ideas?
as i say, you're doing something slightly wrong in Shrink, it'll be something real simple (not sure what it actually is as it'syou that's doing it though) :)
