The question is that after i've used dvd decrypter, then shrink it and after watching a sample of it i see some kind of small squares on the screen. Sort of like bricks on a wall. But, when i see the same sample before using shrink and after dvd decrypter they aren't there. And you can see those "bricks" clearly after burning it to dvd and watching it on tv. Even the sound sounds kinda twisted at times. Anyone knows what might be wrong?

Thanks

If you see the sqares (blocks) before burning the DVD already it means that the compression ratio used by dvd shrink was too high. Try to remove menus, extras and unneeded audio streams to stay arount 70% or more in DVD Shrink.

If you don't see them before burning it, but only after (and in any case for the sound problem), it might be because you are using bad media. As the sound is not touched by Shrink, if the sound is bad it might be because of your DVD media.

It is normal that you don't see squares before DVD Shrink as DVD Decrypter won't modify the quality of your movie.
