It's normal to see the red bar.
What percent compression does Shrink report?
Have you tried removing anything to lower the compression?

99% of all problems are between the computer and the chair.

The red bar I keep seeing is AFTER Shrink is supposed

to have finished compressing it

That has not happened in all these years

It's as though Shrink never compressed it,

but I know it has been through the usual compressing process,

but now the red bar is there when in the past it is always gone

You may need this,

From 1bonehead

You have found a newer movie that shrink cannot handle.Soooooo


1) decrypt to HDD with dvdfab HD (free version) Or use paid for version
2) process files (all) with fixvts
3) shrink files with dvd shrink, output as iso/image to HDD
4) burn iso/image file with IMgburn

all programs are free

Imgburn, free from
http://www.imgburn.com


fixvts, free from
http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_...ools/fixvts.cfm


dvdfabHD free from

dvd shrink 3.2.0.15

I think I followed your approach above & got after Shrink tried

to compress a doc said to be 5.406 MB [ 4,464 + 5,412 RED BAR ]

- of course too big for a regular 4.7 DVD.

I will try to save it to a 4.7 RW, but what else can I try?

I got it to shrink by using Shrink 5 times.

But the old footage was losing enough clarity,

even tho I made a backup,

that I am going to try using a double = DVD +RDL

I will keep U posted - unless U have more ideas
