  1. i recently backed up one of my transformers discs. its about 8gb or so and i want to keep all the episodes. so, i did a full disc backup with dvdshrink with full analysis. the compression ended up being around 65% for the episodes. i turned down the compression on the extras, removed the extra audio track, and changed the menu to still images. the backup still shows noticeable compression artifacts.

    so, what i may have to do is split the backup over 2 discs, maybe 3 episodes per disc. how would i best go about doing this?

    thanks

  2. Hi MediaMonkey.

    Before splitting the episodes over several discs you might want to try something else.
    Make two backups; one where you apply still-pictures to half the episodes, the other where you apply still-pictures to the others.
    That should free enough space for the ratio to be much higher for the non-still-pictured episodes (and maybe for the menu not to need to be compressed).

    Hmmm....nice idea Mr. Shrink. You just flicked the evil scientist switch on in my head....and my thoughts are now aimed at my Band Of Brothers DVD set.

    Thank You Sir...
