rip with Shrink and burn with Nero

Does anybone do this? Any hints?

 

redsand,
Welcome, but before you post this question you should have researched the information in the guides on this forum. Since this is your probable first post I'll take pity and tell you how. In the future you should research the Forum guides and then if you have a problem come to the forum w/ the question. Now go and burn some DVD's

Using DVDShrink to rip and Nero to burn

Set Up Guide for DVD Shrink using Nero

1.Make a folder on the Desktop and name it Rip Movies
2.Put DVD Movie in your DVD-Rom or DVD-Writer
3.When Windows asks if you want to play movie hit cancel
4.Open DVD Shrink


Setup Shrink

1.Edit>preferences ( you can look at it if you want to but it is already setup)
2.File I/O> Burn Setting -check enable burning w/ Nero
Click O.K.
3.Open Disc- click it ( Shrink will do quick analysis )


Copy Movie Only Method

1.At top click on Re-Author
2.Main Movie – Drag title to the left side

1.Compression settings
a.Audio- uncheck the audio you do not want
b.Subpicture- uncheck any you do not want
c.Video- Where it says Automatic Ratio click to Custom Ratio( at the top you will see a Green Bar. Right below where you clicked on Custom Ratio is a bar. Move that bar to the left and you will see the Green Bar at the top move left and it will show some gray color. Make sure only 1/8” to ¼” of gray color shows (this keeps you from burning to the outer edge of the disk))
2.Backup>select target device ( make sure this is your burner )
3.Select Folder for temp files ( make sure this is the folder on the desktop you created Rip Movies)
4.Click O.K.


Now DVD Shrink does Deep Analysis and then Transcodes the movie and then automatically burns the DVD using Nero

 

Thanks for the reply. I did go through the guides and I guess I worded my question wrong. If I wanted to use Nero alone, what would I use to rip with? I have been using XCOPY, but way to many problems. So I tried Shrink today, and it worked great. But I started fooling around with Nero and I got a copy protected message. But I still had the files I wanted from Shrink and I imported those and I could have burned from them.

Hope this makes some sense?

THANKS...

I used DVD Decypter and DVD2one before I used shrink and nero and the method of using shrink is way better. Just follow the instructions Car.Mike explained and it'll all work good. Just make sure to adjust the compression ratio before you burn otherwise the quality of the DVD will not be all that great, a lesson I learned quickly. A good link on how to use Shrink is in the guides section. Go through that thouroughly and make sure you read all the instructions carefully. Hope everything works out good for ya. L8TR
