    No that's a scam:

    http://www.dvdshrink.org/scam.html

    We've been told some other sites/domains begin to sell/ask for donations for DVDShrink.
    They even rename the latest official version (3.2.0.15)
    to other names like DVDShrink 2007.

    DVDShrink was born as a *FREE* tool for DVD enthusiasts.

    To date, DVDShrink has NEVER asked for money, in any form, nor even donations of any kind!

    If you have ever payed for DVDShrink, then bad news for you: you've been cheated!


    DVDShrink was, is and (for now) will be 100% FREE!

    Feel free to report on our (and others) public forums about DVDShrink cheaters/scammers!

    There is a modified version of DVDShrink 3.2 that uses ImgBurn instead of DVD Decrypter or Nero to burn. You can find it here, along with information. It is also freeware, as is ImgBurn:
    http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?t=63869

    And if you need to backup newer DVDs, you can use the freeware RipIt4Me along with Shrink and ImgBurn for most any DVD backup.

    So there isn't a new Shrink, but there are newer ways to use it.

    And since this isn't capturing, moving to DVD to DVDR forum.

    How about the DVDFeb Decrypter? Does it have a new version? That is a good one to solve the problem of reading problem discs.

    DVDFab Decrypter comes in a new version more often than I change my underware. But Shrink is mostly a transcoder, while DVDFab is a ripper - not really comparable at all.

    So, anywhere from two to ten days, on average?

    just run AnyDVD with Shrink, and all the new copy-protection schemes will be bypassed...

  10. Now you're false on that one... I bought AnyDVD and it's been great, but there's been at least a few titles in the last week or so that it wouldn't touch. DVDFab Decrypter handled them all.

    The DVDFeb Decrypter has helped me to rip a lot of scratched disks that other software can’t. Once the scratched discs are ripped into the hard drive, then it is easy to copy it into the disc.

    Which ones? I have yet to run into any. The only time I've ever had trouble were Wedding Crashers and Stealth and both of those were updated in less than a week.

  13. DVD Shrink 3.2 - ImgBurn Update
    http://www.digital-digest.com/software/download.php?sid=423&ssid=0&did=7

    There is now a version of DVD Shrink 3.2 that will give you the option to burn automatically with the freeware program ImgBurn instead of DVD Decrypter.

    ImgBurn is written by Lightning UK! and is an enhanced version of the burn engine in DVD Decrypter. As you know - DVD Decrypter is no more updated - but ImgBurn is fully supported and continously developed. You can read more about it and also find out how the program works in this ImgBurn guide.

    You can also visit the Digital Digest ImgBurn forum or the official ImgBurn forum to learn more about the program or if you should have a burning related problem - get help to solve your problem.

    After the installation of this version of DVD Shrink - you will now see this new option in the backup section of DVD Shrink - ISO Image File and burn with ImgBurn.

    ImgBurn v2.1.0.0
    http://www.imgburn.com/

    ImgBurn carries on from where DVD Decrypter left off! (Well, for the burning part anyway!)

    ImgBurn can write most types of CD / DVD images and it supports all the latest writers (including booktype / bitsetting on many of the major ones - i.e. BenQ, LiteOn, NEC, Plextor, Sony). You can even use ImgBurn to erase / format your rewritable media!

    ImgBurn will try its very best to burn your DVD-Video double layer images using the layer break you've specified in the IFO files, but it can also calculate the best place for you, to save you the trouble.

    Advanced functionality can be found in context menus that appear when you right click on various bits of the user interface. Can you find them all??!!

    FixVTS 1.603
    http://download.videohelp.com/FixVTS/

    FixVTS is a very tiny tool that allows you to adjust your DVD files into better DVD compliance, so they can be opened in DVDShrink or vobblanker.
    FixVTS does a similar job as what's called an "IFOEdit Mock Strip", but only adjust as little information as possible in the VOB and IFO files to allow opening in other apps while keeping the DVD as similar as the original as possible

    You would use FixVTS if you messed up your DVD, for example by applying the wrong tool, or aborting in the middle of some processing, and the result can no longer be used.

    Another good use is for DVDs that have been authored with errors in the IFO or VOB files, such that they still play on your player, but won't open in DVD editing tools such as DVDShrink, vobblanker and others.

    I have never used ANYTHING but DVDFab Decrypter, DVD Decrypter, VobBlanker & DVD Shrink to back up any movie, until last week when DVDFab Decrypter was having problems "Saw 3 Unrated" then for the first time ever i DLed & used RipIt4Me V1.6.5.0

    I've never even had Anydvd on my system's & DVDFab Decrypter (last few versions) has an automated option that if it has a problem with a disc it let's you send the IFO's from the disc via e-mail so they can update it ASAP!!

    Can't beat a company that gives you ripping software and that kind of updating for FREE!!!! And they have a lot of excellent pay programs also!!

    Actually that has been around for quite awhile & you could do that even before someone modded DVD Shrink to use ImgBurn 8)

    For backup DVD, I think the first thing is to rip the movie disc. If it can’t be ripped, well, you cannot proceed. Both of the DVDShrink3.2 and DVD Decrypter are easy to have error message but the DVDFeb Decrypter is not. I do not know what the difference is in the ripping method between the DVDFeb and other ripping software. If the DVDFeb Decrypter can be added function of burning the movie into the disc directly, it should be the top DVD copy software.

    The diff. is, DVD Decrypter (ripper) & DVD Shrink (rips & transcodes) are old programs that are no longer being updated.

    DVDFab Decrypter (ripper) is a newer program that is constantly updated to overcome the NEWER copy protections on dvd's.

    There is & It does.... it's called DVDFab Platinum 8)

    Don't forget to mention that even though DVD decrypter is not updated anymore, the author was in fact clever enough to build into it a method to continue to beat structure protection methods. This is why RipIt4ME and PGCEdit are still able to use DVD decrypter as a ripping tool, even on the newest discs.

    I have tried both AnyDVD and DVD Fab Decrypter. DVD Fab decrypter is a very brutal ripping tool, although it can be handy for scratched and dirty discs. AnyDVD's best features are it's realtime features and it's audio CD protection removal.

    Each to their own, but I still prefer RipIt4Me. Still haven't hit a disc it can't rip, or that I have to find an update for.

    I read "politken's" post re: Nero Recode and Shrink and I wondered if this is in the new Nero Ultra 7 Version that is the latest???

    I presently use Nero 6.6.0.18 and Shrink and Any DVD and have a chance to get Nero Ultra 7 on sale for $49 and wondered if I should upgrade.
    If this version has Nero Recode would I still have to use Shrink???

    I was interested in the comparison of Shrink and Nero Recode and so I ask this Question.

    I hope experienced members will respond, thankyou.

    Shrink rips CCS protected DVDs. Nero Recode does not.
    Shring is a small, lean dedicated application, that's free.
    Nero is a big bloated behemoth software suite that costs money.
    Personally, I wouldn't use Nero (any part of it) if I got paid to.

    I totally agree with Mats.hogberg .... Nero is just overpriced crap ... there are plenty of other apps (most of them free) that can do a better job than Nero without all the bloat

    I would take Politiken's post as being someone talking hot air. What proof do we have that Politiken is right or that he even knows anything about this? I still have Nero 6 as I am totally unconvinced that Nero 7 has anything I can't live without. Since you are using Nero and DVD Shrink, you might want to look at
    http://www.digital-digest.com/~blutach/pgcedit_guide/burning_with_pgcedit/burning_with...pgcedit_v2.htm
    and scroll to the bottom to see why doing this type of burning may not be in your best interest.

    If you mean Politikens comment that the creator of DVDShrink is now working for Ahead & Nero, that is, in fact, true.

    I'll definitely take your word for it, but I have no idea who Politiken is, hence no reason to believe he would have any such knowledge. I stand corrected.

    I forgot to mention that I use Any DVD with Nero and Shrink and wondered if the Nero Recode in 7 along with Any DVD then would deal with the protection issue and allow me to rip and burn without Shrink.
    Just thought that I would ask.
    Thankyou for your time.

    AnyDVD would deal with the encryption. Whatever comes after, will "see" an unencrypted disk.
    But as Nero is never recommended for burning anyway, I see no advantage in using AnyDVD + Nero, instead of AnyDVD + DVDShrink + ImgBurn, as Imgburn is what you should use to burn, regardless of with what and how you rip/post process. Nero is just a waste of HDD space. (And money.)

    Well I thought that I should post this, in another forum it was suggested to d/l DVD Fab Decrypter and Disable "Any DVD"; which I did.
    I inserted my Rita Coolidge vintage 2004 the same source disc that Shrink keeps giving me the Error "Logical Volume Identifier" and DVD Fab Decrypter shows the identical error:
    E/Logical Volume Identifier???? And at the bottom left it shows the DVD as 9, so I would have to shrink it to get it onto my 4.75, correct.

    So if I can't get past Shrink or DVD Fab Decrypter how am I going to be able to burn a backup??

    I keep googling the error, however can't come up with anything concrete.

    Any ideas, thankyou for your time.
