    So how is the Recode 2 quality compared to the other programs for backing up dvd's?
    Compared to CloneDVD2, the DVD RB CCE combo or even DVD Shrink.

    Was wondering what your opinions are.....

    DVD RB/CCE are the best for quality, they also take some time so you need patience. CloneDVD2 has good quality and versatility in their authoring. DVD Shrink and Recode2 are by the same developer, he went to work for Nero. Here is an article that compares the two.

    I use Recode2 because it is faster than Shrink, quality wise it is pretty similiar, it is just easier in Shrink to change the quality enhancements. In Recode if you want to change this you need to go into your regedit to do it.

    I used DVDFab Decrypter and Nero Recode 2 last night to backup "Taxi"
    Came out perfect! Picture quality was excellent!

    But, where can I find the option to set the "booktype" in Nero recode?

    In Shrink there are quality enhancements, such as max smooth, smooth, sharp and max sharp. Sharp is the default in Shrink and Recode, however as stated you can change this in Shrink. If you want to change this setting in Recode you have to go into the regedit to do it. Below are the directions from a member of this forum and posted on the DVD Rip Forum.
