    click open files on DVD Shrink and select the folder with fast and furious. then select back up, and make sure it says to your Disc drive, and not to a harddrive, then just click ok. if you have nero installed, it should just start burning. it might ask you to specify a folder for temporary files, just type the name of the folder your taking the files from or make one up, it doesnt matter.

    Transcoding the backup or VIDEO_TS (ripped files) with DVD Shrink


    Now launch DVD Shrink

    [​IMG]



    Click on "Open Files"

    [​IMG]



    Navigate and locate the VIDEO_TS folder and click OK.

    [​IMG]



    DVD Shrink should do a "quick Analysing" now.

    [​IMG]



    With 69.6% on Video Quality ratio (meaning there are 30.4% needs to be transcoded), DVD Shrink should be able to produce a good quality backup using "DA + AEC + Max Smooth or Sharp"

    [​IMG]



    NOTE: This is if you're going to "Re-author" your backup with just the Main Movie only. Simply drag the Main Movie (Title 1) and drop under "DVD Structure."

    [​IMG]



    click on Backup!

    [​IMG]



    Click Target Device, then Arrow down and choose your desire "Backup Target". Again, I prefer DVD Shrink to finish the job then create an ISO image to my hard drive instead of "auto-burn" with DVD Decrypter, Nero or ImgBurn. You can have DVD Shrink to "auto-burn" with Nero, DVD Decrypter or ImgBurn. However, you'll need to have them installed on your system in order to use "auto-burn" properly with any of them. The choice is yours.

    [​IMG]



    Since I have DVD Shrink to create an ISO image and put into my HD, I'll need to locate my Folder for the "Target" by using the "Browse" button.

    [​IMG]



    [​IMG]



    [​IMG]



    [​IMG]



    Click on DVD Region and make sure to make it "Region Free", under "Provider ID," put in anything you desire.

    [​IMG]



    Click on Burn Settings and under "Volume Label," type in the name of the movie on it.

    [​IMG]



    Click Quality Settings and tick on both "Deep Analysis + AEC + Max Smooth or Sharp". I highly recommend using this Quality option, DVD Shrink will take a little longer, but you'll be more happy with the result (backup). However, the choice is yours. When everything's set, click OK and DVD Shrink will start to transcode.

    [​IMG]



    DVD Shrink is Analysing and or progressing it's 1st phase.

    [​IMG]



    Now DVD Shrink is on it's 2nd phase, which is actually transcoding. Sit tight and relax, DVD Shrink should be done shortly (depends on your system).

    [​IMG]



    That's it... DVD Shrink has successfully transcoded and created an ISO image into my hard drive. Now it's ready for me to burn -- time to fire up ImgBurn.

    [​IMG]





    Burning the ISO image with ImgBurn (The Ultimate Image Burner from Lightning UK)

    [​IMG]


    Now insert a high quality media into your DVD burner.
    NOTE: I highly recommend Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim or Hitachi Maxell (Made In Japan)

    Click on Mode, Write

    [​IMG]



    Use the "Folder icon" to navigate and locate the ISO image created by DVD Shrink from the hard drive.

    [​IMG]



    [​IMG]



    Select the "ISO image" and click Open

    [​IMG]



    Under "Destination," use the Arrow to select your DVD burner. Make sure a high quality blank is ready inside.

    [​IMG]



    Use the Arrow and select your desire burning speed.

    [​IMG]



    Click on the Green Arrow to write or burn.

    [​IMG]



    Relax, now ImgBurn (The Ultimate Image Burner) is burning.

    [​IMG]



    Again, just sit tight. ImgBurn should be done shortly.

    [​IMG]


    And presto...!! ImgBurn has successfully burned your backup. Click OK and EXIT out.

    [​IMG]



    YES, ImgBurn has successfully "booktyped" my backup into DVD-ROM. Way to go ImgBurn!!!
    NOTE: In order for ImgBurn to change the "booktype" into DVD-ROM; (1) your drive must support Book Typing.
    (2) you must use DVD+R, DVD+RW or DVD+R DL media.

    That's a burning issue. Post your Nero log and we'll see what needs to be fixed. Other things to look out for when it comes to DVD burning, especially Nero:

    * update firmware (make sure to get the latest available)
    * possible tools/sofwares conflict (i.e. Roxio & InCD) dump these by using its Zapper or CleanTool
    * cheap media (use 1st class media: Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim or Hitachi Maxell "MIJ")

    Nero 7, to get log; C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero 7\Core\NeroHistory.txt -- if you can't locate your logs, try to have Windows do a search for "nero history" and the most current will be the very last burned of logs.
