OK I did the DVD Shrink thing and it created C:DVDVOLUME and in there two folders: AUDIO_TS (which i empty - that does not seem right)and a VIDEO_TS folder (total size 4.6 GB) the files in the folder end in .BUP, .IFO, and mostly .VOB.
So now, how do I make a DVD out of this. I don't have Nero, I thought it might be TMPGEnc which I have, but it does not seem to know about these kind of files.
Thanks

You can use any burning software that will burn video_ts files. If your using XP, Windows 2000 or NT and using NTFS file system, you can use DVD Decrypter(free) to burn.
DVD Decrypter will only burn ISO files, so when you do the "DVD Shrink thing", you need to change the target destination to ISO image file.

Hi there dpd504, Welcome to A/D :)
If you want, follow this guide -
I say, Iffin ya read da threads around here-a-bouts you'll come across an "Uncle" ScubaPete Guide - YA FOLLOW ALL THE DIRECTIONS AND ALL OF THE SETTINGS -
Anyway, it's a big thingie - Kind of looks like this -
Here we go, step by step - it can?t fail.
First create a folder for your HD backup. Try to put it someplace where you won?t forget it (i.e. C:/All DVD Work/My movie Name).
Next download DVD Decrypter and under mode select ?ISO, Write?. Un-tick the box that says ?verify?. Where it says ?source?, you?ll leave that blank as DVD Decrypter will find the location of your backed up DVD file automatically. Lastly, where it says ?Destination?, select the drive where your burner resides. Feel free to close DVD Decrypter, DVD Shrink will open it when it needs it.

Download DVD Shrink. Open it and click ?Edit?, then click ?Preferences? on this page we?re going to select ?DVD Target Size? as custom and set the size as 4360MB - we do this to make extremely sure that our disc isn?t too large. Then under the ?File I/O? tab un-tick ?Enable burning with Nero? then click ?OK?.
The link for the newest DVD Shrink -
http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_rippers/dvd_shrink.cfm
Place your original DVD in your DVD-ROM drive and a DVD blank in your burner?s drive. (Of course if you only have a single drive, place your original in the drive and when you are asked for it, put your blank DVD in. Then, first chance you get buy yourself a DVD-ROM to ease the strain on your buirner.) DO USE Ritek G04, Verbatim or media boasting ?Advanced AZO Dye. All other media could very well cause errors, only the very best media should be used for DVD Video backups. Now is defiantly not the time to put your crappy cheap stuff in - )
Now click "Backup" -
Now, take just a second and under ?Target Device? go to ?Select target device? once there, select ?ISO Disc Image?. NEXT, IMPORTANT, tick ?Launch DVD Decrypter to burn the output image? box. Finally, where it says ?Select target image file?, browse till you find your created folder for your backup and click ?Save?. That?s it ! Click ?OK? and DVD Shrink burns that ISO image to your HD. It then opens DVD Decrypter and has it burn the ISO image to your waiting blank DVD.
Don?t use your PC for anything at all while it?s working. -
I'M NOT KIDDING ! STAND BACK FROM THE COMPUTER !
* There have been issues where playing your DVD on your burner may result in errors during processing :-(
Enjoy,
Pete

That's exactly the problem, Pete. The DVD Shrink site really doesn't have much about versions later than 3.1.7. I want some info about the newer version (3.2.0.15)
But I sure appreciate the quick response ...
