IM trying to reauthor a dvd using DVD Shrink, but its very very very slow.
what im doing is piecing 2 dvds together using TMPGEnc, then outputting a file of say 6 or 7 gigs, then using DVD Shrink 3.2 to reauthor it into proper DVD size, but it take 3 or 4 hours to do this. Is there anything faster that can do what im trying to do?

If you are running shink in low priority mode it might take that long and if you only have one HDD and its very full. (I think your profile mentions 57GB HDD, is that still accurate?) If you have more than one hard drive select diferent drives for source and destination.

I do have one hard drive but its not that full, a 74 gig drive with still 24 gigs left.
I use deep analysis for better quality option, and then it compresses. A 5.6 gig dvd file is currently in its 8th hour of encoding.
The thing is it never took this long before, just recently. -
It took me 2.7 hours to shrink Chronicles of Narnia using a 2.0GHz processor. That was with Adaptive Error Compensation and I'm not sure even that included the time it took to do a deep analysis?
If you want quality, it takes time and if that bothers you I suggest starting the Shrink process just before going to bed at night. -
Check in Control Panel to see if your HD is in DMA mode. If it's PIO that would slow your system.
Are you using DVD Shrink 3.2? -
So you do not have "run analysis in low priority mode to improve multitasking" checked in DVD shrink settings?
-
Goto path C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\DVD Shrink and select ALL files and delete them. All old analysis files stored here will slow it down.
Good Luck
