DVD shrink is a program by the way. It compresses DVD's so they fit on a standard blank 4.7GB DVD disc. Most retail DVD's are recorded multi layer so are actually bigger than the 4.7GB you can get on a disc. DVD shrink compresses and reauthors so they fit!

Put DVD in drive and copy toa folder on the hard drive using DVD shrink.

Then open Nero - Go into DVD project and add all the files in this folder to your new DVD project. Nero will then automatically sort them and burn them to disc!

Sorted! :thumbs:


Yeah, thats the way to do it above.

Open DVD drive on your PC and place the disc you wish to copy in this drive. If the PC tries to auto run, cancel the autorun. Open DVD shrink (which you have just downloaded from Kazaa), DVD shrink will then detect the DVD in the drive. Then click to copy this DVD to your hard drive. It will then ask you what folder you wish to put the files into, so make a new folder and put the files in there.

When this has finished you need a program that will put these "raw" DVD files onto a DVD disc that works in a DVD player. Nero 6 Ultra is the program to use. Open Nero 6 Ultra and go to the "DVD project" option. This will then Have two folders - "audio TS and Video TS" Ignore the audio TS. Open the Video TS folder and then click "add" It will then ask you what files you wish to add to this folder. Go to the folder where you put the DVD from DVD shrink and you will see about 8 or so VOB files. Select all these files and then click add. Then click "finished" Nero will then cache and sort these files and put them onto a blank DVD for you!

Hope that helps!
