Checking your firmware at Dell's sit (you have the latest btw) showed pages and pages of people having the same problem as you with this drive - here's one that may help you troubleshoot - link and a list of them - link.
Switching media may help though I'd run through the diagnostic in the first link above.
You do have a DVDRW drive btw - it should burn dvd's.
Another thing to try is take those folder that Shrink saved to your hard drive and try ImgBurn to burn the video_ts folder.
Pick 'write files/folders to disc' then click on the folder icon and find and add the video_ts folder for this movie.
Set the burn speed to 8x then click on the icon in the bottom left hand side - a file moving to a disc.
