I need help too.

My Anydvd and Shrink didnt work either.
I have Clonedvd, Fab Decrypter and HD Decrypter but my trial session has expired. I cant afford to buy them right now otherwise I would. Does anyone have any suggestion on how to back this movie up?

Thanks

..then just use the (free) version of DVDFab HD Decrypter..

Can u post a link please?
thanks

lol thanks!
Ill go Dl it now. Im gonna Dl the beta version too. Ive not tried any beta version at all. Whats the difference in betas?

like any beta of any other program, used to test features/fixes for newer non-beta versions..
i'd say let us know how you get on but DVDFab will rip thru it with ease..

Im trying the beta version now and the MB/s rate is down to 0.05 and the task time just went to like 30hrs! Ive got Anydvd running and its on dvd9 not dvd5....any reason why its saying its gonna take so long?

you can run AnyDVD or Fab but not both together.. turn off AnyDVD

ok Ill try it

just rip/backup the movie only

rip with

dvdfab decrypter
clean the file with fixvts
transcode with dvd shrink
burn with imgburn

It worked perfectly when I turned Anydvd off. Thanks

we thought it might :)

happy watching

OK so now this is my problem.

I have the source set as the folder where the movie and the target set as the drive I use and when I hit the start button, nothing happens....

Does that mean the file is too big for the disk? I did the whole disk, maybe it means I should have done the movie only...??

Are going to the same folder where the ripped files are? You need to reauthor to a new folder.

Yes Im trying to copy from the same folder they were burned to. What do you mean reauthor?

To re_author means to make changes.
This guide should help:

Im even more confused now than before.

start over from the beginning backing up the dvd and follow this guide step by step

rip with

dvdfab decrypter
clean the file with fixvts(only if dvd shrink won't transcode the file)
transcode with dvd shrink
burn with imgburn

thanks

great, it should work fine lets hope so

Ok so Im sitting on step 30 of that link you gave me and I was wondering something.

Im currently at 5855mb of movie and I need to be down at 4350. I just dont know where else Im going to cut back to make this movie fit?

The thing is, Ive been backing up my dvds for over a year now. Ive never once had to compress, alter, or reauthor and movie until The Golden Compass. Every single movie Ive had to back up, I just put it in and DVD Shrink or Fab Decrypter just copied it and I was on my way. The problem Im having is the movie is too big to fit on my dvd-r so I need to know how Im going to shrink it down more to fit it on here.

Thanks again

do you run the file though fixvts after you ripped with dvdfab decrypter?
