i can't burn some of the movies on my HD as they're to big for Nero to handle I suppose. I don't think I should have to use a DVD9 disc to record onto but still this problem is a drag. I do have Shrink and Decrypter and have used them both but still this problem presists. I have tried the overwrite feature but nothing happens also when I do manage to burn a DVD it takes about 2 hours...I think that is to long IMO so if any person with a vast knowledge would like to take my messenger to give me a hand I will comensate
Habsfan - here is a good guide to start with. For your problem with the size, please pay special attention to numbers 18-20. http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/backup with DVDFABDecrypter,Shrink,&Decrypter.pdf For your burn times, yes something is wrong. It doesn't sound like your computer is in DMA mode. See this guide for checking/changing: http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/checking DMA.pdf Also, make sure your firmware for you burner is up to date and that you only use quality media. You can still get top of the line media for $14.99 a 50 pack. Post back and let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you very much for your help but the problem is...not decrypting dvd's or shrinking them , I have avi movies that aparently need to be shrunk and DVD shrink will not find the file. Also I have managed to make MDS files but when I burn it ...it doesn't play on my DVD player
DVD Shrink dosent suport AVI files. It does VOB/IFO files. Most Standalone DVD players will not play AVI files either unless it has a decoder to play them. Some do but most dont. So if your DVD stand alone dosent suport AVI files then it wont play them. You then would have to use a program that will convert the AVI file to DVD Format (VOB/IFO). Nero Vision Express does this and there are some other programs out there do it it as well.
