I've burned at least 50-60 movies no problems. Now I keep getting this error and it is always at about 93% to 99% encoded. I've taken the credits and menus. It is just the movie. I have a Lite-On Dvdrw Sohw-812S and a Lg dvdram gma-4020b. I have 23gb available on hd. I've cleaned the disc and retried numerous times. It happened trying to burn Shanghai Noon, The Missing and now What Lies Beneath. Help, I'm at a loss.

You will get an error like that if you are using DVD Shrink to encode to a ISO image file on a FAT 32 drive. You hit the 4GB FAT 32 file size limit at about that point. If that sounds like what is happening let me know and I can give you more information on that. Or Search messages for FAT 32 or NTFS.

i've read a little about the fat32 to ntsf but i'm unsure of how to change my hd. I am running win me. I just never had this problem until now. But when hubby tried to surprise me and install new liteon in pc he unplugged my hd then after all back together system not find os cuz hd not hooked up. I had to go and rehook things where they needed to go. Can u give me step by step on how to change from fat32 to ntsf or point me in the right direction.

now that i think about it i was burning to hd(not iso img) before just switched so i could use DVD Decrypter. so, this all coincides with when i changed my method. i like using this method but definately need to change to ntsf if i can.

To convert to NTFS go to help and support on your start menu and in the search field type in 'NTFS convert'. That gives you easy to follow instructions on how to do it. Its better to defragment your HD and do an error check before you convert though!.

NTFS is for Windows XP/2000/NT.
If you are using Windows ME then you have FAT 32 and you will have to go back to your old method.
Or.
You can use a free program called AutoShrinkISO.
It works with DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter.
It has an option to split the ISO image files for use on FAT 32 drives.
It runs DVD Shrink in file mode, then takes those files and makes split ISO image files and then sends them to DVD Decrypter to burn.

I went to help and support and typed in NTFS convert and nothing was found. I'm running Windows ME not XP. Is this for XP users only? I was using DVD Shrink then burning with nero(demo) until I read a thread on how you can burn from DVD Shrink then with DVD Decrypter. I figured I'd save myself some money and go the free route instead of buying Nero but it looks like I might have to because my hubby doesn't like XP at all. If I have to buy Nero I'd like to buy as cheap as I can because I don't have a lot of money to spend.

I'll try the autoshrink and see how things go. I guess there is a first time for everything.

Just a thought, but I presume u are taking out all the audio streams and sub-titles that you don't need? I did a back up of one of those films not so long ago and after I had taken everything out bar the main film it only took up about 3.2gb. That was using DVD Shrink and was with no compression at all. I'm not very sure about FAT 32 but if the main film only takes up 3.2Gb uncompressed then u shouldn't have problems with the 4Gb limit. But, as usual I stand to be corrected on the last point.

You could also just set the file size in DVD Shrink to Custom and set a file size that would fit in 4GB on a FAT 32 drive. 4096MB = 4GB. You might have to reduce it a few MB less than that. I am not sure what the overhead on ISO image files are. You would just be using less of the DVD and if there is some compression, you will have more compression.

Carpki,
You are right I take out all the audios I don't need. Even thought it was like 3274 it still didn't work. I just tried the autoshrinkiso but got i/o error in DVD Decrypter this is what it says
device: liteon dvdrw sohw-812s usoJ
ASPI SRB status: 0x04
Interpretation: SRB completed with error
Host adapter status: 0x00
Interpretation: Host adapter did not detect an error
Target status: 0x02
Interpretation: check condition

Interpretation: Command sequence error
I have absolutely no idea what all this means please help me. Still thinking I should just buy Nero. Anyone know where I can get Nero cheap?

I don't know what kind of machine you have, but I have an older 800mhz athlon with only 128 megs of memory and I had the exact same problem you did. Kept getting failed to write file "vts_?_?" access denied errors. Always happened at about 92 percent encrypted. So, I went back to the previous version of Shrink. With that version, I use Image tool to convert to ISO, then burn with the latest version of DVD Decrypter (Which I also use to rip the dvd to the hard drive.) I now have no problem backing up my movies. It probably is a Fat32 issue, as I'm using Win98SE. I won't use XP because of the tracking and viruses. But the solution I outlined works. It just needs a little babysitting. I actually bought a copy of Nero on Ebay. Worst waste of money ever. It needs a newer machine to work properly. You may be better off with the free stuff.
And for a guide to how to use the three pieces of software in tandem go to: http://forum.dvddecrypter.com/index.php?showtopic=3604&st=0 Good Luck.

Give ISO Buster a shot, to get your files down to size. You should really consider NTSC, works soooo much better -
cheers and Welcome to the Forum :P)

I'm sorry but I really don't know what your error message means at all. The answer of spending money on software may solve your problem, then again it may not.
Its best to see if u can get it to work using the free stuff first. I'm not sure off-hand how much Nero costs, but you may be as good getting WindowsXP instead. As far as I'm aware it has a 10GB limit instead of the 4GB one. Its difficult to advise people to buy things to solve their problems when it may do no good at all.

XP really would be the way to go. Maybe he doesn't like the new XP menu system. I don't either. I just switch to classic menus. Then it doesn't seem very much different than Windows 98/ME. But you have a better operating system, more options, a lot less crashing, and the NTFS file system that you really need.
There you go again Pete. Typing NTSC instead of NTFS.

Well I took your advice Veblin and changed to custom in DVD Shrink. I changed it to 4090mb because it would not take 4095mb was still getting error at 100% encoded. So I lowered a bit more and voila it worked. I burned the movie and checked quality in player and was beautiful. I tried a couple more movies and they are burning fine. Just a little tweeking is what system needed.
As far as XP I think it has to with the fact that it is so buggy. I don't know exactly why.
Thank you all who replied with the good advice you have all once again have saved the day.

Hi mlheands, Glad to see you worked your way around the problem you were having.
I'm interested to know why you think XP is "buggy". I know there are security issues etc but i've found that as long as I take the necessary steps such as installing service packs and disabling error reporting and auto windows updates etc I couldn't be happier.
Not so long ago I was running 98SE with constant system freezing and visits from the blue screen of death. Opening any more than 2 or 3 IE windows or programs at a time was a nightmare. Now I've been known to have up to 12 IE windows open as well as 4 or 5 programs and still everything runs smoothly. Just my opinion of course.

I too was very reluctant to change to XP, I'm glad I did now though. Never had any problems with it at all!

Hiya carpki
Do you think the reluctance to change to XP is due to the fact that it is touted to be so different to other Windows versions?
In reality it isn't all that different to navigate - in fact I actually find it easier. One of the big plusses is being able to change the folder icons that way you can individualize ones you access all the time - finding that folder is much quicker and easier.

Well Grogey, I'll show my age here.lol. When I started off it was Windows 3.1 and DOS that ruled the roost..lol.. then it was Win95,98,2000,ME and finally XP. I think I was reluctant to change to them all because I could quite happily work the version I was on at that time. Most versions are an improvement on the previous one but just need time to get used too.

I use XP at work and don't have a problem with it. I do believe he doesn't like the style and obviously going on what others told him when XP first came out was buggy. I'm sure those have been fixed but I think it purely comes down to that why change if it is not broke. I wouldn't mind upgrading but I'm not the only one using computer.

Since I switched to XP, you couldn't pay me to back to the headaches of ME. I think it was the worst OS ever put on a shelf. I became an expert at FDisk because of ME. I had sooo many crashes on my Packard Bell, that it became a running joke in my house. Now I have a system I built myself from the case up, and XP is the best. I can customize it anyway I choose. And no more FAT32 to worry about...;)

Funny you should say that Kat!, because I also had a Packard Bell which I absolutely detested. It gave me nothing but problems. I too have also built a new one from scratch and it runs like a dream, except for my tempermental Pioneer 107 which won't run right no matter which of my systems I put it in. Grrrrrrrrrrr!

First, let thank everyone for all the tips. I have a 850 mgz Athlon with 384 meg of ram, winxp home and a plextor 708a dvd + - r/rw, cd-r/rw. I am using the latest version of DVD Shrink and dvdDecryter. With my new Plextor came Roxio easy cd creator 6. I updated the firmware for this software. After reading your message board I changed my file system from fat32 to ntfs. Double checked and my file system is in fact ntfs. Just when the file is almost ripped this error message appears, "vts_01_4.vob" there is not enough space on disk. I have two hard drives, internal/exernal both 40 gig,free space 30 gig nad 8.5 gig. I get this message with every dvd I try to rip. Any ideas?

first, thanks to all for reminding me that I am running Fat32 at home.. Forgot about the 4gig limit. Seen it enough times but it still slipped my mind.
Second, my 2 bits on 98 vs xp... Keep a 98 machine to use on the internet and an xp for everything else. I use 98 at home cause I spend too much time fixing virus/addware ridden xp machines that have a hard time running solitare. Question...could you load xp and 98 on pc but only use internet when booting the 98...would xp be safe????
