    Feel kind of stupid asking this question, but i'm stuck. Long story short. I was having trouble backing up a movie, so i decided to try another pc using decrypter,shrink, & anydvd. Everything worked great on the other pc, (which tells me i have a dvd drive problem on my main pc), anyways i get to the part where i'm going to burn with decrypter & i cant find the file. the file i compressed to with shrink has 2 files Video & audio & doesn't work when i try to burn with decrypter. On my other pc the file i use after shrink is clear over to the right of my c drive & very easy to find. For some reason on the other pc i cant find it. Can someone please explain to me where i'm going wrong. Thanks

    Burn it with ImgBurn. It will burn folders. No need to create an ISO.

    Hey seadale
    Decrypter can't burn a video_ts folder - may be the reason you can't find it w/ decrypter. So you can use ImgBurn like dialysis1 posted. ImgBurn is an updated burning software from the same guy that did decrypter.

    Here's a guide on using build mode - pretty easy - just add the video_ts folder.

    When you initially set up Shrink on that pc - the defaults were used. So sounds like the back up target was set to 'hard drive folder'.
    You can set it to 'iso image file' to burn w/ decrypter or imgburn later or 'iso image file & burn w/ decrypter' which after shrink is done encoding will autoburn w/ decrypter.

    Shrink keeps the last setting used until you change it again.

    Keep an eye on how much space is left on your hard drive when you try to burn, sometimes if you do not choose to delete the file when when finished they will build up and take up all your hard drive space

    Here's how to burn your VIDEO_TS file directly without building into ISO via ImgBurn.

    <> launch ImgBurn
    <> insert a high quality media into burner
    <> choose your burner as destination
    <> click Mode, Build
    <> click Output, Device
    <> use "Browse for a Folder" icon (3rd one) to locate your VIDEO_TS folder
    <> once it's loaded, click Options and make sure it's "ISO9660 + UDF"
    <> click Labels and type in your movie on both "ISO9660 and UDF" box
    <> now click WRITE, relax and ImgBurn will burn your VIDEO_TS file directly

    Enjoy it!

    thanks, i think i'm going to like the imgburn program. was able to back-up MI-III hitting the build button. Whats weird is i let it burn came back after some errons & i had a failure @ 38%. for the hell of it i watched my back-up copy & everything was there even the special features. This has been one weird experiance backing up this flick but, Finally "Got er Done" Thanks again!!
