Oh Wrong answer. Yes, a few of us here at AD were allowed to check out the Beta being tested for the 3.2 version of Shrink. The following was posted by ddlooping. - New "Quality Options" to improve DVD Shrink output at compression ratios > 70% (or thereabout). - Ability to output as "split" ISO for FAT 32 users. - New target size option: DVD9. All in all a good batch of improvements over the current version. Hopefully it will be out in the next week or 2. Beta testing is still going on and Shrink is still tweaking the program. The Beta has proven the improvements work, but Shrink wants to make it better.
Hi guys just used Dvd Decryptor to back up a single DVD. Created a ISO file that is now too big to be paced straight onto a dvd. Shrink doesn't recognise the iso file, and the file size is about 7gig. Am i stuck with a file that is no good what so ever i use Recorddx DVD decrypter dvd shrink any ideas
Did you try Open Disc Image under File (selection on top left of screen)? There are some good guides for Shrink here at AD, at doom9.org and at DVDShrink.info. One good question. Why rip in ISO with Decrypter when you are going to have to transcode with Shrink? Shrink rips on its own. Decrypter gives the size up front. _X_X_X_X_X_[small][bold]'brobear'[/bold] I was an earth-rim walker, a lurker at the threshold of the abyss. - Grendel - [bold]Et tu, Brute![/bold][/small]
Hi brobear tried to use shrink, but it failed to analyse the disk so i though that i'd use decrypter iso mode. this seemed to work but when i tried to deed it back through shrink, it didn't recognise the file. im using shrink beta 5 . will a newer version recognise the dvd dycrpter file ? Any syuggestion of how to compress this file
Curious you'd want to use a beta, when 3.2 is the culmination of a long line of versions and betas. All the versions I am familiar with recognize ISO files. Shrink will even create one if desired. I already told you in the form of a question, use open disc image (ISO) under File on the top left of the Shrink window. Open Disc and open disc image are different commands and you appear to have mixed them up. If you don't have that option, your program is incomplete. Beta 5 of what version? If you are going to work with ISO files, you need to learn about emulators. Daemon is a free one. Shrink is one of the programs that will recognize and use ISO without an emulator. Shrink will recognize an ISO loaded in an emulator with open disc. As I said before, Open Disc and open disc image are different commands and you appear to have mixed them up. Search here at AD and on the net for Daemon and emulators. Even the Nero program has an emulator.
All that work done on Shrink was to make it a better functioning program. Glad you got it going and good luck with your recording.
