Ok, I am new at all this and have read post after post. Can someone just tell me the best programs to use that are the easiest and come out the best. I just want to make back up copys of my dvd's. I have windows vista on my computer. I used to use shrink on my old computer but the movies would freeze alot of the time in the middle so I'm sure I was doing something wrong. Please help.....
It does not matter what programs you use if you use "crap" media you will be disappointed in your results. ALWAYS use quality DVD blank media,i.e.,Verbs or TYs.
I'm not criticising your way of doing things but many people always seem unsatisfied with using just DVD Shrink to do it all, when in fact you don't need any other application at all to rip, compress and burn a DVD to your own specification. I don't use anything else and have never had a problem. You are just wasting CPU and memory by keeping a third party program running in the background. Why do you need to have AnyDVD running at the same time?

You must not copy any movies or at least many that have been released in the past three years since DVDShrink is not able to decrypt most of the newer releases. Even if it works for decryption and ripping, DVDShrink can not, does not burn on its own.
