For MONTHS now I have been trying to burn DVDs, I want to make backup's of all the DVD's I have, I have only been succesful in burning two very short in length DVDs. I have read all over the web on different ways to burn, but they seem to talk in weird languages, and I cannot follow. The only way I have been able to backup anything is with Nero, but usually after it copies it, and asks me to put in blank Disc to burn, it then tells me it is too big to burn on the blank one. I also see Unknown BurnPhase an awful lot, followed by a bunch of junk that I do not understand. Can someone please simplify all this jargen to me, and help me succesfully Backup a DVD!

You know, I have DVD Shrink, not sure I am using it properly. And as for your question, at this point, all I want to do is copy a DVD, I almost don't even care about the end result. Haha. I would like to copy entire discs, not too picky about the extras, I guess it would be nice, but not necessary!

If it's a DVD-5, you may begin by trying out DVD Decrypter. It's pretty easy to do:
Run Decrypter, click 'mode --- iso ---read' for ripping dvd to harddisk (you need to set the source and destination, of course). Then click 'mode --- iso --- write' for burning from harddisk to dvd.
And that's it!

Ok, as you can tell, I am not too literate on these matters. Hard disk?? I opened up DVD dcypter, and saved file under c: then put in in a new folder uder that. It is on process of doing it's thing now. So what is next step. In that folder, doesn't it come up as several different things, that have like VOB, and things like that? I have tried to use DVD dcrypter before, with no avail!

Ok, DVD Decrypter is done and this is message I am getting : There doesn't appear to be enough space on the disc to burn this image Image size: 3,533,375 Sectors Disc Size: 2,295,104 Sectors Would you like to continue anyways. The disc is Gothika, I bought it preiviously viewed from BB...so it's not rented, which I know is illegal. Seems like everytime I try to burn I run into some kind of error. My blank DVD=R discs are TDK 8x 4.7GB 120min

i think we are missing something here.
How about you tell us your pc stats for starters?
what media you are using?
what software versions you are using?
the operating system?
and anything else you think is relevant before we get back to helping you?

@ scf_au: sorry to be a party pooper, lets see if we can get it to work with shrink first then decrypter or vice a versa.If we cant then theres some other issue that isnt relevant.
He has sufficient chipset and ram well i'd personally up that to 1024
but dont know how big the hard drive is.
be back later to check progress

one more thing helpme77 can you do the steps that you take when using shrink.Put it in point form so that we can review it.
like:
1.open dvd drive
2.insert dvd disc
3.open shrink.................etc
(shrink will utilise Nero as the burning agent.)

Ok, I updated my DVD/R-RW drive, I ran DVD Shrink, I put Gothika in, I clicked open disk, it ran the encoding prcess, this all while following detailed instructions. After encoding, I clicked reauthor, the green bar said I believe 95%, I unchecked all but the english under audio, and subpictures, then clicked to save it under a folder in c: drive, after it was done, it asked me to insert a blank disk, to burn it, after a little while an error occured that there was not enough space on the disc to complete compilation! I am not sure what I am doing wrong, I follow detailed instructions on DVD Shrink, and also DVD Decrypter!

Quote: After encoding, I clicked reauthor
why your doing a full disc backup.
1.after you load shrink
2.insert your disc in the drive
3.select open disc
4.when the open disc panel appears on the screen pick where the disc is located.
now when the movie comes up all i want you to do is untick all the subpicture stuff.Do not click the reauthor button
then press the backup button.
the next screen is what you select as the backup.It can be your hard drive but in this case i am going to burn it to disc

At the botton of the screen where you pick where you want to burn to disc or hard drive there are some figures.What are they saying.
Dont worry about any other functions.Just pick the burner and press ok
it is now doing the encoding

When shrink gets to the point of asking for blank it is now using Nero or dvdd whatever you have it set to burn with. It has put the files on your hdd (c drive) or whatever you may want to call it.
It sounds like you may be atempting to use a disk that is not blank. If you have started to burn to the disk and it failed before, the disk is no longer blank. Make sure you are putting in a blank disk.
You might want to use rw until you get burning figured out. If it fails erase the disk before atempting again. Simply because some people have problems when try to erase then burn in same instance.

@ dkbaked; stop confusing him.He want to's see if he can actually get a burned disc first.Let him worry about all the other things after he has one successful burn.
Quote: On the Quality Settings tab, I would suggest enabling deep analysis if the movie is compressed just to give it a better quality picture,
this kind of tinkering is unimportant all its going to do is make him more fustrated.YOU will definitely get a better outcome quality wise but thats unimportant (helpme77)we just want to make sure you can burn one disc first.
after the encoding process this is the next screen:
insert your disc which will get analysed to make sure it is compatible:
once that process is done, it should start to burn to disc, starting with the writing the lead in and then proceed to burn your disc.
