    The price was just a thought for any newbies that prefer not to use keygens and may live and die by what your report entails.
    If in doubt, Google it.

  2. Ok compared, and I'm not going to post any images because nothing is new. Image quality is basicially the same. (Only an ever so slightly increase in quality, but Im talking hardly any, still no where near as good as the clone screen.)

    Now I'll do a different DVD. But you can't deny that even when Shrink has the space advantage it's still not as good as Clone :P

    I guess the difference is that most of the time we are not enlarging our images like you are in your tests. The proof is in how it displays on TV and I will be quite happy to stick with DVDShrink, but I admire your endeavour.
    If in doubt, Google it.

  4. Why are you quite happy to stick with software that gives you inferior quality? Ofcourse it depends on what your watching it on. Myself I use component leads so I demand good quality. And it all begins at the source.

    I'm about to do Gladiator as the next test. If clone wins this one I shall now know which software to uninstall :P

    It is only inferior quality when enlarged massively and you have only done a couple of tests on your machine. Who knows whether different configs might produce better results.

    I'm not satisfied to make ajudgement that DVDShrink is inferior based on your results.
    If in doubt, Google it.

  6. Don't need to zoom in to see how shit it is. It was only done to make it more obvious.



    Don't even need to compare with the other two to tell this one is pixalated to death :P

    Here is a animated GIF incase you can't seem to tell the difference.

    I'm afraid you're flogging a dead horse. There is a well used saying here - "each to their own" or "whatever floats your boat". I suggest you use that to respect the fact that other people may not share your opinions. I accept that you believe Clone to be much better; I do not.
    If in doubt, Google it.

  8. It doesn't have anything to do with what people believe or think. The proof is 'painting on the wall' 'a picture speaks a thousand words'

    Frankly the evidence is right there. No ifs no buts.

    And I'm confident I'll have more images that bring the truth soon enough. Almost done ripping with Clone :P

    Have to agree with jimmalenko on this one. You're not proving anything except your own preferences.

    What if your eyesight is worse than mine ? Then your definition of quality would differ from mine !

    Seriously, the point I'm trying to make is that many people prefer different software for many different reasons. Personally I like DVDShrink because I find it is more customisable in terms of extras and audio options, etc. Quality cannot be measured from screenshots - you and I might have differing levels of what is acceptable.

    I am prepared to respect your opinion because you have bothered to go to the trouble of proving it to yourself. You need to do the same.
    If in doubt, Google it.

  11. Never thought I'd see the day when people tell themselves a blurry pixateled transfer is better than a sharp and clear one

  13. Like thats going to happen.

    And now im back with more evidence. Studdy these 2 frames very closly. And you will see that CloneDVD is the least severe compared to the Shrink screen. Scene from gladiator.

    Note: Look for giant blocks which both suffer from but the clone version is harder to see. Also Clone is a bit more sharper.

    Best way to compare these is to save to disc, and open them as a slideshow using windows, and u can compare them directly. The difference is extremly obvious.

    CLONE: http://www.dart.net.au/users/jmalthouse/cloneflames.jpg

    SHRINK: http://www.dart.net.au/users/jmalthouse/shrinkflames.jpg

    Edit, here are 2 more screens for comparision. No more now, I've seen enough to make my judgement on what program to use for my DVDs. Also these images have not being zoomed in. It's just an extremly fast motion scene.

    Forget about it man. You use clone, I'll use Shrink. That way, we're both happy.
    If in doubt, Google it.
