Ok, so I am new at this whole decrypting and burning. I originally used DVDXCOPY but that is out the window and doesnt want to work. So then I went to DVD Shrink. Well that worked but only one prob, the back ups can not be read on my PC, my dvd player or my laptop.. What am I doing wrong? Please help me Amanda
We need to know a lot more starting with what kind of burner you're using and what kind of media you use, speed you're burning, what you're trying to burn and so on.
amandasue , Welcome to the forum. You really need to delete Interactual Player from your computer as it can cause problems w/ the trancoding of the DVD. What blank media are you trying to use to copy the movie to? What is the speed you are burning at? Below is a guide that uses all free programs and does a good job w/ about 90% of the movies. Try it: http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/backup with DVDFABDecrypter,Shrink,&Decrypter.pdf Here is another guide that you use to do the other 10% of the movies that the first guide can not do: http://www.k-probe.com/backup-newly-release-DVD-DVDFAB-Decrypter-VobBLanker-Nero-Recode-2.php In the guide above you can substitute Shrink for Recode. Also use good quality blank media like Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden, Sony( made in Japan), Maxell or Fuji-(made in Japan)
Do you mean what type of DVD disk? DVD -R. I think I am getting the hang of it. I have said this, but I have DVD Shrink and it works great but I guess when it backs it up, it doesnt burn it? How do I get it to burn it? What program?
amandasue, Look at the guides I posted and read the guide and then do the rip , compression and the burn exactly like the guides say to do it. It is free software
Thanks for the link that you gave me. I am running in to a small prob and it says, that there isnt enough disk space and I have uninstall a bunch of different programs and yet, it still says the same thing.
If you are using WindowsXP go to My Computer, if the drive space isn't listed you can just let your mouse hover over the drive in question and it will tell you it's capacity.
Go to Start> My Computer> C;Drive. As you put the cursor over the c;drive it will tell you how much free space you have
You might as well break down and get more harddrive. They are resonabile now and a external will work fine without a lot of hassle. If you're gonna do dvds you're going yo need at least a min of 20 gig and more will help.
i've been having trouble backing up my stuff as well. I have an I/O Magic DVDRW Dual Format/Dual Layer and I've tried 3 different forms of blank meadia: dvd-r by fujifilm 16x, dvd+r by playo 8x, and dvd+r by memorex 16x.
