when i back up my dvd's using dvd shrink and copy the backed up dvd to a blank dvd they seem to work fine on my dvd player i have in my room which is not an expensive one. So then i tried to play it back on a sony dvd player which i have in my front room and it wouldn't work. Do i have to set it as region free in dvd shrink?
sorry for all question as you can tell im a newbie!!!
Thanks again

Yes, although it should do that by default. What media are you using (brand) ? Are they + or - R ? What type of disk does your Sony expect ? Have you checked out your model Sony in the Players list (to your left) to see what disks other have trouble or success with ?
What, if anything, does the Sony say when you put the disk in ?Read my blog here.

Generally cheap far-east dvd players play everything.
Expensive brands e.g Sony don't. -
Well there you go. Your Sony does not play pal, region free won't work for you. You either need to try patch method or convert to NTSC

BTW. I have 2 Sony's that I use patch method on it works.
