Using DVD shrink v 3.2.0.15 the buffer fills up during encoding,
and crashes after 25% processing, about 1,300MB buffer,
the message says:

" Out of Memory,
Paging file is too small for operation to complete."

MY External 250 GB external HDD receives consistently
only about 65MB of the encoded file.
(tried six times and the DVD Shrink fails!)

Using Windows XP Home SP 2

I Unclicked the indexing for memory and installed a memory software to help with memory,

but problem may be DVD Shrink not windows.
Please give detailed assistance.

Hi!

Is this happening with one particular DVD? If so, what is the Title and Region number of the DVD?

Hi,

problem is happening to an iso file from dvd decrypter, needing to be shrunk.
I have been using dvd shrink for several years and the out of memory crashes are recent.

I reset memory to 1500mb and 3000 mb and new message says:
out of memory
not enough storage is available to process command.

Again, what is the Title and Region number of your original, purchased DVD from which you made the .ISO image file?

Am pleased to report that DVD Shrink 3.2.0.15 has worked by loading Shrink on the external 250GB storage HDD and Shrinking from a DVD via my internal Toshiba sdr 2312 cd/dvd-rom drive, to an ISO file on the 250GB HDD.

Also the buffered amount during the shrink process never exceeded 110MB, fluctuating from 30 MB to 110 mb.

Please note: The issue of out of memory (related to my 40GB HDD)
is not resolved but for now I seem
to be able to use DVD Shrink 3.2.0.15, my main objective.

Will test shrinking/ encoding a few more DVD's in this manner.

Thanks for all your collective help in this matter.

I have learned a load of stuff in the process.

And will continue to learn, disect and resolve
the main issue of using Shrink on my internal HDD.
