I have it Simmo, I might be able to send it to you.

Try here champ:

DVD SHRINK

Go down to the bottom of the page and download the link that says "dvdshrink32setup.zip"

I use this and have no problems at all, but I run as little compression as possible, most of the time none whatsoever.

Use the "re-author" option, select only the Title Movie, get rid of other languages and sub-titles....and you should get close to 100%.

Try DVD43 it works pretty good, DVD43

dvd shrink is far better option as I have used then all

Better than what?? other click and burn programs?? Curious..

The only advantage shrink and other like programs have is that they are quick.

Disagree....DVD Shrink is not a "Click & Burn" Program.

It allows you to re-author, edit "features", choose options (such as languages, subtitles, and soundtracks ), & compress to useable size.

If you choose more than one "title" off the DVD, you can even be selctive on which titles to compress, or have sub-titles.

Not bad for a "click & burn" program.

( In fact....the one thing it DOESN'T do......is burn ).

Yeah ive about 600 movies always used dvd shrink it works fine, but for a straight copy or if you want to burn on the fly if you have two burners you can burn from the movie straight to the blank disc, use a progam called 1click dvd in conjunction with dvd43 works great and can do a film in about 8 minutes depending on your setup cheers.

I use clonedvd now - found it to burn superior to the others
