    DVD Shrink will not reauthor. An error occurs- Not Responding.

    I had DVD Shrink working for a few months with out a problem. Yesterday I downloaded Ripit4Me and installed. Since then I have this problem. I uninstalled both programs and cleaned the registry.

    I reinstalled DVD Shrink, but the same problem.

    Any ideas how to fix?

    DVD SHRINK & RIPIT4ME has NOT BEEN UPDATED in years. You'll need to use DVDFAB HDDECRYPTER to rip files. Then use DVD SHRINK. Read the stickies in DVD to DVDR.

    budz is right, but to follow up a little...
    DVD Shrink's author was hired to work for Nero. He has abandoned DVD Shrink after that. To be honest the last version is stable enough that as long as you don't try to rip with it (hence budz' suggestion to use DVDFab) it works fine.

    The author of RipIt4Me had the legal equivalent of a gun held to his head by one of the most litigious companies in the entertainment industry. This company is not a movie studio. They told the author that if he abandoned all work on the program and gave them the source code that they would agree not to subject him to a ruinous lawsuit in the US court system. Given the loss by 123Studios in a somewhat similar case and the loss putting them out of business, you can probably understand why he didn't want to fight.
