Dvd Shrink 3.0 beta 5 will not perform Deep Analysis

[watty252]

Hi all

I've been using the new dvd shrink for about a week now. & its been ok well its been brillent i think the quality is so much better when doin the deep analysis before hand.

i've just turn my pc on this morning to back up another film, opened dvd shrink got every thing set the way i wanted it & when i hit the button to back the film up, the area for deep anaylsis was grayed out & it will not let me select it........

any ideas what i can do to get this working again

thanks

I had the same problem... until I realized it was a DVD that I had already done a deep analysis on, but never actually hit the 'back up' button. I'm guessing it saves the results from the deep analysis somewhere, so you don't need to do it again.

Hi all.

DVD Shrink does indeed save the results of deep analysis.
The files are in a hidden folder situated at:
"C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Application Data\DVD Shrink 3.0"

Even better, DVD Shrink saves the result of a partial deep analysis.
So it will start where you left off when you decide to complete (or continue) it.

A lot of people get confused by this. Instead of greying out the button perhaps there should be a pop up explaining that analysis has allready been done.

That's a good idea, presto, I'll let dvdshrink know about it.
Thanks.

Greetings,

For a Beta version, I find it is pretty stable. In fact, I had more problems with DVDxCopy Platinum commercial non beta release than DVD Shrink. It is why I decided that until they fix their faulty product, I shall use my combinaison of DVD Shrink, IMGTools and DVD Decrypter to copy my DVDs. It takes a little bit longer, but the results are better and I do not waste a DVD-R because the software crash during the writing.

Not to sounds to praise to much the author of DVD shrink, but I would pay for his product if it would not be free. I wish the next version will add a couple of functionalities like black screen instead of "still image". In spite of this, it is still the best.

Thank you

DVD shrink is one of the best programs I use, Beta or not. I was not criticizing the program, just making a comment.
