    Ive just started burning DVDs, and have had no problems so far, except for the movie Armageddon. I am using Nero 6 Ultra Edition, and has done all the other movies fine.

    However, when I go to Nero, and then to Make your own DVD Video, I go to add Video files, it only allows 99 of them. This has been fine with all the other movies considering the main movie was in 3 or 4 parts, each part 30, 40, 50mins... But, with Armageddon, there is about 600 some odd parts. Each part only a few seconds. Since the program will only let 99 in, I cant do the movie!

    Make sense? If not, I can try to explain better. So, how do I go about doing Armaggedon another way?

    I also have had an issue with Armageddon. I have successfully used DVD Shrink many times, with little issue. However, after shrinking this DVD, the screen at the bottom left read: "This DVD is not Region Compatible on this Drive", or something to that affect.

    I've used Region Free on everything from Lord of the Rings to The Matrix Trilogy & had no problems backing them up. Has anyone had a similar problem or can anyone offer some advice?

    Been a long time since I burned this one but, if I remember correctly, I used DVD Decrypter (Free) and it will remove all region codes.

    I used DVD Shrink, Movie only and chose Title 1, I think, I’m 2old2remember but I think this one has some other angles like Title 2, maybe.

    Changed the writer from Nero to DVD Decryptor (using DVD Shrink)& it worked fine. Thanks for the advice.
