Trying to Burn 'LOST': encountering problems

PacMan777,
As far as to what was told to me via PM he used the Default settings. What really is a puzzle is the log states Shrink started but no error after starting the program. I still think if the disk is good the error came because of choosing the re-author process instead of Full Disk.

P.S. I also suggested what you just posted

 

PacMan777,

I looked in the VIDE_TS folder, but didnot find any of the files that you have in your screencap above. No Original IFO folders, psls..nothing.

Here's what it looks like:

tried linking the images above..but it doesn't work with the tags..
Thanks for all your input and help so far..
I'm sure we'll figure something out...:\

 

If episodic disks are being done and they don't want the compression of doing the Full DVD, it would be better to edit with Still Image in Full Disc. That way there would still be the navigation function. From Reauthor they'd be stuck with fast forwarding to get to segments unless they just want to watch the whole thing.

 

still image? I haven't dealt with this option.

But regardless of what I do, DVD Shrink does not recognize the folder directory. I made a link to two screencaps that illustrate the problem I'm facing.

Basically, no matter what I do, once I press the "BACK UP" button, DVD shrink gives me the same error message saying that the file does not exist.

It's looking for an ISO. But according to you guys, there are no ISO files on the HD. So why is DVD Shrink asking for files that don't exist? What use are the files on my HD that were ripped using RipIt4Me

 

Don't downsize the images and post them again. Use the direct link. I need to see those images and they're too small to see the details.

dunno...imageshack hates me...
Thought this was the way to post an image...at least that's what I'm used to.

 

You haven't had time to do it the way I suggested yet. You don't appear to want to pay attention to what I'm saying. If you don't, just say so, I'll excuse myself and you and Car.Mike can get back to discussing the situation.

 

Sorry.
I seem to be misunderstanding you.
What are you referring to?
The image or the sofware?
I do appreciate your trying to help btw

I did do what you suggested, (created the Ripped Movies folder) but the result is the same.

I still get the same error message of no directory being found...

 

Edit

 

Show me an image of your Preferences before you do your next rip.

 

The only guide I've been reading is the official guide found on the RipIT4ME website.

More importantly, I did set ALL my preferences to look exactly like yours, down to the name of the folder
except for the setting for the LOGS.

Here it is.

I am using the direct link from imageshack, but the image doesn't appear, so I'm just going to post a link.

 

Okay we're getting there. You've got the image thing down it seems. Now open your DVD drive (not play, but open)and take a capture of the files from the original DVD.

 

Normally if installed with the installer, FixVTS would have been in the RipIt4Me folder. It doesn't matter, but it appears installation didn't go quite by the book.

 

Does anyone see what I see? Note the file path on the Fearless movie I did and the Lost done by JJYkim. Instead of the path pointing to the Video_TS folder it is pointing to a file in the Video_TS folder, Video_TS.IFO. This may be the reason for the error.





----------------------------

@JJYkim
I'd like to see the capture taken after you run the software with the settings I suggested for Preferences. If that's it, the software is FUBAR.

 

Oh no.

My computer must've crashed late last night while it was ripping again.
I'll have to redo it this morning, and I'll post the screen cap.

Wow. Great job pointing the difference out.
I wouldn't have noticed.

I'll post it up as soon as it's done ripping.

What could be causing this problem?
and FUBAR means ? :\

Thanks Pacman for keeping up with me

btw- I dled FixVTS separately from RipIt4Me. Hmmm...

 

FUBAR? LOL There are different ways of saying it. Let's just politely say Fouled Up Beyond All Repair. LOL

 

Yay. DVD Shrink actually worked.

So this is the screencap I got.

What do I do next?

 

Edit:
I see you didn't follow my instructions.

You would have had to use the Create DVD Files: Hard Disk Folder (in brown box below) to create a Video_TS folder on the hard drive. You will need a burner that will burn in File mode to burn that folder. My instructions, which you didn't follow, included using Create ISO Image File: ISO Image File and burn with ImgBurn (pictured in red box below)

 

This is strange. Cuz I made sure the target folder was ripped movies.
As you can see in the screen shot below, there are now 2 folders containing whatever was ripped from the dvd.

I swear I followed all your instructions, dude.
