    After downloading a dvd, i convert using divxtodvd, then copy onto disc using nero express. Now i want to put two dvds onto one disc, ive tried to downsize them using dvdsrink but it wont even let me enter the folder my dvds are in.
    So what am i doing wrong? Can you copy two dvds onto one disc?

    Shrink will allow multiple videos together using the re-author function. Click re-author, select the folder from the right and drag to the left of the screen

    Free up some hard drive space.

    Did you put in a blank dvd?

    "There is not enough space on target drive"

    This means that you don't have enough harddrive space for DVDshrink to write your (output) VOB files. If I understand what you're doing correctly...

    You currently have two DVD folders (that are the result of using DivxtoDVD on your two AVI files), which you now want to combine together. When you used DVD-shrink's Re-Author function to do this, it will create a new (3rd) folder to write you new (output) VOB files. Then, you can use nero or whatever other burning engine/program you want to burn those (output) VOB files onto media.

    The error message DVDshrink is giving you indicates that you do not have enough hard drive space for DVDshrink to make the new (3rd) folder to write your new (output) VOB files in. DVD shrink KNOWS THIS AHEAD OF TIME, because it calculates how much space the 3rd folder will occupy on your hard disk. If it figures out you don't have enough space, it won't let you do it.

    My suggestion would be to free up some harddisk space by emptying your recycling bin. Or, right after you hit the backup button, change the "Select folder for temporary files" to a location where you have enough harddrive space.

    The "folder for temporary files" is the (3rd) folder I've been referring to.

    Even though you're burning to blank media, DVDshrink still needs some place (with enough space) to put your new VOB files before burning them onto media.
