DVD Shrink isn't always too good at figuring out DVD encryption

Haven't had a movie yet that DVDShrink couldn't decrypt.

To OP just do what the others have suggested, DVDShrink to one disc. It works great.

With my equipment (P4 Prescott 3.4 GHz, 915PBL motherboard and a Lite-On 812S drive) DVD Shink runs a LOT faster than DVD Decrypter, so I've been using DVD Shrink to do the whole thing lately. It could just be an issue with DVD Decrypter not liking my drive for ripping, though.

amazing so many posts in this thread speak authoritatively, but don't even know that simple fact.

Your DVD player will read a properly burned DL disk no problem.

It's amazing you can be so condescending when you don't know what you're talking about.

Just because every DVD player can read a pressed aluminum DL disc doesn't mean they all do a good job of reading DVD+R DL.

There, I got through the post without screaming "YOU ****ING MORON!!!" ... whew!

That couldn't be further from the truth. They are a lot of movies on single layer discs. Amazing you would criticize people and then give false information.

True, some are double side single layer (I hate those).

yes, you may have to replace your 1995 vintage DVD player...

Spend $80 for a DL writer and $8 per disk, but can's swing $45 for a DVD player made in this decade..... ?

-Things that make you go hmmmm....



I have 4 DVD players at home (Denon, Sonys, and Panasonic) they all have some issues with (some)DL disks.
