Hi, As I'm sure everyone knows dvd shrink doesn't decode certain sony/columbia dvds. I have always had to use dvd decrypter to rip the movie and then open the file w/ dvd shrink to compress the file to 4.35gb. This process has always worked in the past but I have tried to recently use this process for Are We There Yet and I have gotten an out of memory error message when the movie was 53% decoded. What can be the cause of this. I have plenty of space on my hd and plenty of ram.

1.Uninstall DVDShrink
2.Go to Explorer->All Users->Application Data->DVDShrink and delete the folder(you might have to enable hidden folders).
3.Reinstall DVDShrink
4.In Preferences disable burning with Nero and enable "read 32kb blocks".
5.If that doesn't help try re-authoring the main title only.

maybe install dvd region free, it could be some kind of new protection

Or use DVDDecrypter, it's free.

dvd decrypter won't work on the newest protections, dvdregion free will

or give it a day or 2 and they will update dvdregion free to bypass a new protection

I used DVD Decrypter in conjunction with DVD Shrink to back up that title without a problem.

I had an error (can't remember what it said though) when trying to Shrink "House of Daggers." I don't know the film studio, but I just did a 8.5GB backup using DVD Decrypter.

Also, once in a while I get a strange message when I tried to burn an ISO onto the DVD+R, and it says the ISO size is too big, do I really want to do that. I did it anyway, and I thought it would be a coaster. But it played fine on the DVD player. That happened with "Hotel Rwanda".

Off topic, I guess, but my gripe right now is the apparent poor quality of the 16X DVD+R from Prodisc (Legacy label). They're cheap, but they can't burn at 16x. I ordered some Verbatims because of a rebate. I'll have to use my spindle up first. :roll: oh well.

install latest version of dvd region free, or there is some other program out there, but i bought dvd region free

gets rid of the latest protections really well
