    Get a copy of DVD Decrypter to get rid of all the nasty stuff that stops you `backing up` your chosen movie, and then use DVD Shrink to squash it all into a nice 4.7GB size, then use Nero to burn it all...incase of scratches etc ;) [:D]

    You dont need to use DVD Decrypter. DVD shrink does it all for you, decpyts and shrinks all in one. :)

    no if you use dvd shrink it just does an exact copy

    only does this if the disc is already small otherwise lowers quality to fit on.
    mind you video shop dvd's dont have the extras like the shop versions ;)

    You can use shrink to copy move only, get rid off all the sh1t!, just select re-author and choose the main movie only.

    You can, after a shrink it`s un-encrypted and ready to burn onto a 4.7gb blank disk. (I use DVD Decrypter for ripping and latest Nero for burning).

    Don`t post threads on Doom9 about backing up copies, thet don`t like it ;)
