    Hi been using DVD shrink for a while now. Lately, about 1/3 of new movies won't back up for me. They start to annilize and then it just freezes up, viewer goes blank and it just stop's. Some go thru perfect. Have tried to uninstall, reinstall, same thing. I have Nero to burn with but i can't back up to a Hard Disc Folder on a lot of these new movies. Any Help? Thank's

    Yes DVD Shrink has not been updated since 2005 so most titles released after that you have to use a ripper and then shrink the ripped file. Like was stated DVD Fab 7.0.7.0 works very well for free. What I do is have it Burn to C to a file in a known location Desktop is easiest for me. Then drag and drop the Vidio TS folder into an open DVD shrink 3.2 and it will open the movie and you can shrink it just like you always did and you can fit it on a 4.7G disk.

    your problem can be traced to poor media low priced or unbranded blank media try using Verbatim brands like tdk memorex fall in to the class of poor media
