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

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

Looks like the disc was bad --> 2 coasters, 1 of which was a DL
I'm taking it back if they will take it
