Hello all. I have DVD shrink already and I will be picking up some DVD's today. My questions are: Once it backs up the files to the folder you selected what do you do next? Just burn those files to a DVD? And has anyone tried using their burned DVD in a Playstation 2?

Thanks for any answers or comments.

All you need is DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter (both free). Use Shrink to backup the DVD to an ISO file, and then use DVD Decrypter (or Nero) to burn the ISO file to DVD.

I set it to rip to ISO, and then have it use DVDDecrypter to burn it (like BlueWeasel said).

My PS2 refuses to read DVD+R discs, but does accept DVD-R discs. YMMV.

You don't need DVD Decrypter. I just use DVD shrink to encode to a VIDEO_TS folder and then use any burning software you have to burn that on a dvd.

DVDShrink can be linked to Nero to make it a one-step rip and burn process, except it doesn't do a verify...

I to Copy movies and they work fine with DVD-R's on the PS2 but I think different models of the PS2 play different formats from what I rember, you might want to check out videohelp.com to make sure.

Can some one explain the difference between +R and -R? Or a good website that explains it in Idiot terms. Thanx.
