I used to use dvd XCopy Xpress or Platinum and it was simple. It ripped and compressed for me. However, a few of my dvd's including the 2nd disk of the 4th season Sopranos won't work on Xcopy so I came to this website and read the guides and the F.A.Q. sections and have gotten some great feedback. This is what I'm doing. I am using the newest dvdshrink to decrypt and shrink it. However, it was making a bunch of files that weren't supported by dvd decrypter. So someone said to download img tool but I'm having problems figuring it out. This is becoming so complicated and DVD XCopy was so simple. I'm sure there is something I am missing but what is it. I have been trying to use dvd shrink to rip and shrink and then burn with dvd decrypter. Is there a way to burn with my DVD XCopy without going through the first step (the ripping part)? I think I'm making this harder than it is because I did a few of my movies that were just normal. (not huge or multi episode)
