Automation for shrink

[hansoff87]

I want shrink to burn the movie only dvd's after. I used to have this progrma (forgot what) after shrink shurnk the stuff, it would create an iso and burn it. I would acutally have to select what shrink made, then it would make it into an iso/burn with decrypter on its own.

I was looking into Autoiso. Does it shrink to movie only automaitcally?

looks like you have to still manually setup DVDShrink so movie-only should be possible then click backup and it should automate burning

will it deepanylize it?

[MackemX]

if it allows you to play with DVDShrink until clicking 'backup' then I presume so as all you would do is have the option selected

mackem, i just want movie only, and near the same quality as original. Should i ...
A. rip first with dvd decrypt then Shrink it
B. shrink right away
C. Go with another program.

What you think?

[MackemX]

movie only, I would probably use DVDShrink as it will only tip what it needs but you can start it and walk away then come back to a freshly burnt DVD

try it and see if you like it, if not try DVDDecrypter but then you will have 2 seesions on the PC as you will have to setup SHrink after it's ripped

What you think about dvd2one? I actually got it awhile ago never liked it. I still have my code or whatever somewhere. shoudl i update it and use that?

[MackemX]

sorry mate, no comment as I don't have a need for it

but again, it's best you try it for yourself first instead of listening to others opinions, all it will cost you is usertime if all goes well

Why not just make a macro? In the old days windoz used to come with that feature, these days you need another program to automate things, search for macro at download.com

I use AutoShrinkISO myself w/ Shrink and it works well. I my case, I load the original in my reader & a blank in my burner. Start up ASI, it launches Shrink, set it up as usual (full or reauthor mode). After Shrink does its work, ASI launches a DOS program to build an ISO, then finally, DVDDecrypter in burn mode to make the backup.

There is only one reason to use AutoShrinkISO anymore IMHO. And that is if you wish to keep the dvd-rom content (the stuff that you can install on your pc). Other than that it was useful for those who had FAT32 partitions. Now since the release of DVDShrink 3.2 even FAT32 works and you can burn with dvddecrypter so like I said only the reason above which I suspect very, very few actually make use of.

You're right Mr.Bass, but I was using v3.0ß5 prior so kept ASI3.1, but decided to give v3.2 a try. I set the latter to burn w/ DVDDecrypter. Doesn't seem to recognize that I have Nero 5.5x installed, but no biggie.
