Re-authoring / Shrinking:
- First Sstart DVD Shrink.
- Click the [OPEN FILES] button on the main toolbar.
- Navigate to C:\NAME_OF_DVD\VIDEO_TS,
select VIDEO_TS.IFO and click [OPEN],
this will take a few minutes while DVD
shrink analyzes the DVD.
After the analysis has finished, you will see the entire structure of the decrypted DVD files.
Jump to step 16 to backup the entire DVD, (like an episodic or series DVD like Friends or Simpsons), instead of just the 'main movie', and then adjust the compression for the extras and menus in order to leave more room for the main title.
- Click the [RE-AUTHOR] button on the main toolbar and the DVD Browser tab should be active; if not, click on it.
- Click and hold on 'Title 1'
and drag it to the left-hand pane, under
DVD.
- If your movie is greater than
4.35GB then the movie is
automatically compressed as you can see
if you click on the 'Compression
Settings' tab. Here you can deselect
audio tracks and subtitles you don't
want in order to minimize the
compression of the video.
- Insert a blank DVD±R (W) into your DVD-burner.
- Click the [BACKUP] button on the main toolbar.
- Select ISO Image file and burn
with DVD Decrypter as your target
device.
- Select an appropriate target file/folder for DVD Shrink to output to, for example 'C:\NEW_DVD.ISO'
- If your movie is greater than
4.35GB, then you can CHECK
the 'Perform deep analysis' option on
the Quality Settings tab to enhance the
video quality. If it's not, there's no
need to compress and you can't select
that option.
- Click [OK]. If your movie is greater than 4.35GB it will take about 20 - 40 minutes depending on the length of the movie, and the complexity of the mpeg. Otherwise it will only take a few minutes.
- Once DVD Shrink has finished re-authoring and/or compressing, DVD Decrypter will automatically launch and burn the image to DVD without any user intervention.
- When you have checked and are happy
with the new DVD, you can delete the
'C:\NAME_OF_DVD' folder, the 'C:\NEW_DVD'
folder (if it exists) and the 'C:\NAME_OF_DVD.ISO'
file
