dvdshink trouble

[zookeeper525]

i have a dvd movie in .iso format im trying to open in dvdshrink but i keep getting a error saying that it cant read the iso

i took the files out of the iso and ran it threw fixVTS and it will open but when i try to make an iso in dvdshrink with the fixed files it works till i try to open the new iso in dvdshrink then i get the same error how can i make a iso out of this dvd but keep it so it works with dvdshrink?








sorry for my bad Punctuation but im a dropout lol

I'm assuming that ISO image is bigger 4.3gb so you wanna shrink it down to fit a single layer dvd disc. Use the files you created w/fixvts and just create a VIDEO_TS folder from DVD SHRINK then you can still burn it with IMGBURN. IMGBURN can burn VIDEO_TS folders.

[zookeeper525]

the iso is 4.32gb and i know i can burn VIDEO_TS folders
but i am not burning it, i am trying to make a iso that will open in dvdshrink and not get errors. there has to be a way to make an iso so dvdshrink will open it if it will play files from a video_ts folder as long as they are fixed with fixVTS



is there anyway for me to make an iso so dvdshrink will open it


i have about 12 other isos that came is the same format with the .mds file and most them play but there is like 3 that i get an error on in dvdshrink
i deleted the .mds files for them but that shouldnt mess it up so it dont open in dvdshrink so i dont get y they will not open. can someone help me out with this

2 suggestions,

1: to open an iso in dvd shrink you have to use the file/open disc image option and point to the place of the iso wether it be on the hard drive or on a disc.

2; Reinstall dvd shrink as I have known it get corrupted.

Okay well you can use the VIDEO_TS folders and use IMG TOOL CLASSIC to create a iso image.

http://www.coujo.de/ib2/index.php?act=module&module=include&incl_name=download

scroll down that download page I posted up above and download ImgTool Classic 0.91.7
you should be able to create a iso image from that VIDEO_TS folder. then try opening it up with DVD SHRINK. Are you using the last version of DVD SHRINK? You may wanna try downloading version DVDShrink 3.2 it from the link below.

http://www.mrbass.org/dvdshrink/

or you can download a older version like DVDShrink3.0B5 from here:

i just get errors trying 2 make a iso with that something about the ifo file is bad or i found a mkisofs bug




UPDATE> i just tried opening the VIDEO_TS folder in dvdshrink without running it in fixVTS and it open with no prob so y is it that only the iso ver on these movies messing up i dont understand

[TooLFooL]

output to file format and try making an .img with another tool like Imgburn or ImgTool Classic, as was suggested, and see if that .img will open in shrink.

[zookeeper525]

i just tried imgburn and same error messeage saying it failed to read the file i also tried imgtool classic and that wouldnt even make an img i kept getting an error saying that the ifo file is bad or i found a mkisofs bug

[TooLFooL]

well it sounds like the original source is malformed. you can open it with pgcedit and see what it says...

[zookeeper525]

im not that good i never used pgcedit and how and can i fix a malformed movie? or are the movies recked. i hope they are not unfixable because i dont have the dvd anymore all i have is the img files of the movies

but y is it only messed up for trying to make an img but you can open the reg VIDEO_TS folder in dvdshrink but not any img/iso of the movies i dont get it lol

[TooLFooL]

i'm not really sure why, that is strange.. but if you output from shrink to file format, you can then open the files with pgcedit. chances are, it will automatically alert you to any problems and offer to correct them. then you simply save the file and burn it. one thing though, the original files will be included in a backup folder, so you may want to delete these before burning.

[zookeeper525]

ok loaded the VIDEO_TS in pgcedit and it got alot of alerts when i first open it but idk what i did lol but i made a img with imgburn and now it opened in dvdshrink

thanks alot for your help toolfool now to try 2 fix the other movies i have lol


but for the video_ts folder do i just leave the dvd navigation files in it?

[TooLFooL]

good deal! pgcedit automatically fixed whatever the problem was.
those backup files are created when you first open the dvd with pgcedit. they are there so you can restore the files to thier original (in case you mess it up). as long as your new files open ok, you can safely delete all those backups.

ok thanks alot for your help ToolFool you just saved 4 of my old 007 movies lol

glad to help
