Well ISO is just a standardization abbreviation and doesn't really say a-lot - most video files are ISO. Although in the DeCrypter guide it doesn't say a seperate burning rom is needed, it also doesn't say that one is not needed, in a similar way that none is mentioned when burning with DVD X Copy (though we all know that one definitely is here). The fact is that nearly all users have some form of burning rom on their system and it seems to me that DeCrypter just takes advantage of whatever it is. Has anyone ever used DeCrypter without any other burning rom application installed on their computer? It would be interesting to know.
Mort81: Seems you have a knack for misreading me - that's what I said - Shrink 'Incorporates' the Nero you already have installed on your system into it's programme. Maybe we are are talking at cross purposes.

There are a lot of beginners that bought a dvdrw without any burning software and can't afford at the time to purchase any, that need a way to burn their backups to a disc after useing shrink, therefor they can use dvd decryptor because it is freeware to perform the task.
Discmania: You have a knack for trying to offend others who are trying to help. I use shrink all the time and have read all the guides for it on this site along with many others from different sites.

ISO is a file that contains full content of the disc, including every single track, directory, file and information about the structure of the disc (i.e. ISO files can't be used as they are, but they need to be either "mounted" with tools like Daemon Tools or burned to CD or DVD in order to see what files the disc image actually contains).
Yes, There are many who have burned with decrypter and no other burning program on their PC at all. I recommend it with shrink to all newbies learning to back up their DVD's because they are free. They don't have anything else.
I'd be interested to know where you got this because I can assure you Decrypter can burn.
 GO VOLS ! |

I am sorry if I have offended anyone - that is not my intention I can assure you. There are some popular misconceptions that often go unnoticed in some threads and sometimes things are said which if unchallenged create misinformation. Also quite often things are stated in such a way that it is difficult to understand what the author is saying and their statement can often be construed in a different way from what was intended and hence create further confusion. I think it is important to be clear about things hence my challenge to certain posters. As far as DeCrypter is concerned I am trying to clarify beyond any doubt whether this programme can burn of its own accord or whether it requires independant burning rom. I have always inderstood that the later is correct, but I am happy to concede if anyone can offer definitive proof. All my searches on the matter have produced indecisive results and simply to 'assume' that one can is not definitive to my mind. Why, for example would the Decrypter authors include burning rom in their software when they know they can simply utilise what most users already have? I am not saying anyone is wrong, but as of yet I have not seen any definitve proof or any individual poster saying they have used DeCrypter themselves with no other burning rom installed. I stand to be corrected.

Discmania...I don't know why Decrypter included a burn engine for just ISO images...but they did...and lots of newbies use it because they can get into backing up DVD's for free. The AD search database is full of these users.
I will point out that a lot of people that discuss Shrink at length on AD tend to adopt a certain "shorthand" where they talk about "burning with Shrink"...which implies that the Shrink-Nero autoburn is activated. What tends to happen then is that newer posters get the idea that Shrink burns on its own...and this leads to confusion.

You didn't offend me and I don't know what else you need as proof. To just up and say it doesn't because you doubt everyone's veracity is a little off the mark IMHO. But I will reiterate once again, whether you choose to believe it or not is up to you. I just wouldn't be telling newbies who don't know any better that it does or doesn't if you are not sure. Sooo, here goes.... DvdDecrypter will burn in ISO mode :>)
GO VOLS !
