Due to my 6 year old daughter not always taking care of her Harry Potter collection I've decided to back them up. I should have done this already, but better late than never as they say.

Had no problems with the actual movie, as is usually the case using Shrink & Decrypter. However I've hit a bit of a snag with the special features disc 2.

The reason being, not only are the 2nd discs in the Potter collection DVD Roms, they can also be played on a PC for added features.

This is where I've hit a problem, as backing up in the usual way using the software mentioned above doesn't back up the PC files part of the disc. The DVD Rom features are there but not the PC files.

Anyone got any ideas as to what I can do. Because if I can't get the PC stuff on, my daughter plays with this feature a lot, there isn't much point in me backing the 2nd disc up, although I would like to.

Thanks.

I think DVD Shrink and decrypter will only back up anything to do with dvd films not any pc software because it cannot shrink that. What i would do is use DVD Shrink to shrink disc 2 down to a 4.7gb disc, however this alters the quality for a example to 60%. I would locate the pc software you want to copy and copy it to your desktop and find out how big the files are. Then i would set the quality down to lower than it recommends if it is 60% go down to 55% then this should leave you room to reinsert the software.

Bear in mind to add the software back into your shrinked version you will have to shrink it to dvd files not DVD Decrypter.

I aint sure if this will work but i see no reason why it would not

@Xsilver - i was browsing thru the forums and noticed a double post. then i saw that the poster had received some useful advice from yourself, thus i haven't yet offered any advice.

as it happens i reported this as an accidental double post as that's what it looks like to me. No need to call me sad and no-one's bollocking anyone, it's forum rules after all
