dvd shrink error

[Dansan]

Hi I'm new to ripping dvds, I have dvd shrink I did rip a dvd disk and every thing was ok, but when I tried to get shrink to open a video file I get an error saying dvd shrink encountered an error and cannot continue, fail to open file the system cannot find the file specified, the files are ok what can I do to get shrink to open them

It was advised in one of your other posts to use DVD Fab Decrypter. Have you tried it? There is a free version called DVDFab HD Decrypter.

the files are ok
If the files were ok, DVD Shrink wouldn't be balking at them. Kindly describe your entire process up to the point DVD Shrink gave the error.

Hi!

What is the Title and Region # of the original DVD that you're trying to backup?

BTW - How can you say you're "new to ripping", when your first question regarding ripping a DVD was asked in December 2005?

sounds like you tried to open the ripped video file folder,you didn't actually tell dvd shrink to open the VIDEO _TS folder,I know that when you use dvdfabhd the 1st folder will be fulldisc,2nd will be the title folder and last will be AUDIO and VIDEO_TS folders,dvd shrink has to be told to go to the VIDEO_TS folder or it will produce the error you're describing.

Thanks for your help I think I need to study the tutorials abit more, I did post a question in dec 2005 but haven't done much dvd ripping since, I don't have a problem ripping from a disk, its just if I try the open a video file I have downloaded to see If can get rid of unwanted stuff like languages, how to I tell dvd shrink to go to the VIDEO_TS folder

I don't have a problem ripping from a disk, its just if I try the open a video file I have downloadedYou might want to RE-read the "Announcement" at the top of the "Newbies" sub-forum, as well as all of the Forum Rules (particularly #6)...
