Burning more than one copy

[rogco]

Hi
I am using dvd shrink3.1 to back up dvd's
It usually takes an average of 2 hours to encode the dvd prior to burning
These encoded files are placed in my hard drive
My question is - Is there any way to go straight to a second burn via dvd shrink without having to go through the encoding process again?
Any ideas?

Once the encoded files are on your hard drive, you can make as many copies as you wish with your chosen burning program.

as OmegaSupreme said once the files are copied to your hard drive you can make as many copies as you want. OR if you've already deleted them just make another copy off of the dvdr you just burned.

Thanks Guys
I have been attempting to do this using Nero Express but it wont let me burn ie. use the "Burn" button

Have you tried using AutoShrinkISO, its also free and works directly with DVDShrink to burn a DVD after its been processed

Strange about Nero though, but then again I don't use NeroExpress, I prefer to use Nero directly without all that wizard stuff

If you're making a backup of your store-bought DVD, why need multiple copies ?



Only joking.

The burn button not enabling is due to some other problem. What I do is set everything up with Nero Express then swith to the full version at the last stage if I need multiple copies.

Thanks for the suggestions guys I'll look at them all
Nero is a puzzle though. It should have been the 5 minute job

Use ImgTools (the classic version) to create an ISO IMAGE file.

Basically you put your DVD files (the VOB, IFO, BUP files etc.) in a folder called "VIDEO_TS" and then you put that folder in (under) another folder which you can name whatever you want (such as the name of the movie) then ImgTools will create an ISO IMAGE file for you.

You can then burn this with DVD Decrypter.

In fact the newer versions of DVD Shrink allow you to create an ISO IMAGE file auto so you don't even have to use ImgTools

Can't beat DVD Decrypter for DVD burning and creating an ISO IMAGE file only takes a couple of minutes or so.
