    I would put the dvd straight into shrink and let it do its job straight from the disc.

    Do you want to archive the video on your pc or make a backup to watch ?

    You would only use shrink if you wanted to backup the dvd to another dvd.

    If you just want to archive then I would read the guides in the convert section going from dvd to avi.

    You might want to look at auto GK since it will do all the steps for you.
