Big 3\DVD Shrink Error

[Teslacuted]

I recently backed up "XXX" (the action movie) using the Big 3 method. Unfortunatly the end result was 5MB oversized. I tried to cut this down using DVD Shrink 3 Beta 5 but when I select the drive (virtual) I get the following error:

DVD Encountered an Error and Cannot Continue
The Error is:

Programming Error - Impossible Program State Occured

The Reason is: Unknown

I did 8 passes on the main movie and 9 on the extras so I would prefer not to do it again. Any help appreciated.

you know anything over like 4 passes shows virtually no increase in quality... you could save yourself a little time there...

I also did XXX a few weeks ago, exactly the same Way (well not exactly the same way, i only did a 3-pass ;)), and also had a Problem opening the result with DVDShrink. However I also have of Instant Copy and it worked fine with it.

If that´s not an option for you, you could transcode the Original DVD Menu with DVDShrink to save the 5MB, and replace your original Menu vobs with the transcoded.

In that case I'll use 5.

@ArchStanton: Thanks I did that and actually worked I was 32KB under the limit.
