Anyone see a problem backing up Movies this way ?

[Sforsyth]

Anyone see any problems with this way of backing up my movies ?

1. I use shrink to make an ISO image of the movie

2. I use Nero to Burn the Movie.iso file ?

On my other computer I do it this way that works good:

1. I use shrink to make an ISO image of the movie

2. Burn the ISO file with CloneDVD

This computer dosen't want to work with CloneDVD for some reason it will burn the ISO file but then at 100% it just sits there not finishing and my computer freezes up.

Useing Shrink to make DVD files and then burning them with Nero works good but I'm not sure about ISO files ?

Of course I do they are my daughters movies I like to keep the orignals in perfect condition and give my daughter backups to abuse in her cheap bedroom DVD player and don't last very long they get all scratched pretty fast.

Create the ISO with DVDShrink and then use DVDDecrypter to burn, see if that works.

you can use dvddecryptor to burn dvds?

i thought dvd decryptor was used to make the ISO file... that's what i use it for? if it can do both, why use dvd shrink at all?

Yep:

DVDDecrypter > Mode > ISO Read and ISO Write.

You need shrink to remove extras, and compress if needed.

I use dvd decrypter to rip and then dvd shrink to transcode. If you have Nero, then it will automatically burn using the Nero engine. I don't make an iso.

This is the guide that I follow:
