dvd shrink problem

[Tymaraux]

I'm trying to copy the movie shaun of the dead, used dvd decrypter to rip it to my HDD, then when i try to run dvd shrink, i get the following error when it starts to encode:

Dvd shrink has encountered an error and can not continue
programming error - exception occurred
the parameter is incorrect.

i have no idea what this means. I have tried it 3 times and on the third time dvd shrink made me re-accept the liscense agreement when i clicked on it. If anyone knows what's going on and how to fix it, i would greatly appreciate it.

I don't know what is happening, but you could try uninstalling it and reinstalling it. Maybe something happened during the first installation.

Your PC looks to be very up to date (nice rig, by the way!) - I doubt it is the problem.

Anyway, try uninstalling and reinstalling, and see if that helps at all.

hey thanx, i built it myself..... i have uninstalled it and then reinstalled it at least once before.... but i will sure give it a shot

so i did the whole reinstall thing, and it didn't help. it gave me the same error message but this time it said the handle was bad or wrong..... then i ran it again and the error message came up again and said not enough storage space to execute this command...... i am completely lost. anyone know what to do?

try using a older version of dvd shrink like version 3.05 beta. do a search in google for mr.bass. he has all the older versions of dvd shrink. sorry i don't have it in my favs on this pc.

or just use dvd shrink to rip the dvd. or try smartripper

[Tymaraux]

i tried ripping just using dvd shrink, and once it got to the encoding part, it shut the program down..... and that smartripper, said something about not being able to download it if you are from the US. any other ideas?

[Tymaraux]

i went to that website, but can't find any of the old versions of dvd shrink. are there any links any where that might allow easy access to them?

[glockjs]

i think i had a prob similar before. i just used shrink to get the movie only with no menu's or extra's and it worked fine

i'd just like to say thanks for the help guys. at the moment it is encoding. so hopefully it will finish. the only other question (at least for right now )is there a way to make it burn with dvd decrypter, without having to start it up seperately after the encoding process is done?

The new shrinks do that automatically. Just check to write with DD & it starts DD when the time comes.

Does for me anyway.

If I have DD open before that it won't write automatically.
