DVD Shrink encode?

[beto666]

i know it will sound lame, but i heard once dvd shrink would convert into .avi's or .mpg's. is it possible? i'm using dvd shrink 3.05 but have read lotta guys talking about shrink 3.2. where can i get it (link)? does dvd shrink only backup dvd's or it converts them too? searched around but couldn't find a possible already answered thread.
looked in shrink's preferences and no success.
thank you guys.

Look in the Doom9 main page. In the Download section under VOB Tools, you will have a direct download link for DVD Shrink 3.2.
Or choose one of this (http://www.filemirrors.com/search.src?file=dvdshrink32setup.zip) mirrors.

Thank you castellanos. one of the mirrors worked just fine. And do you know anythink about dvd shrink convertion or is it only a backupper? If Shrink does not convert to .avi's or .mpg's, do you know of a good prog which does, with the shrink files (I mean the result of DVD Shrink's work)?
Thank you again. Your tip was cool.

DVD Shrink is one of the best transcoder around. It works as a transcoder and ripper as well, it is not a video converter.
For this things I suggest to use another programs like AutoGK (for Mpeg4/avi) or TMPGEnc (for VCD-SVCD/Mpeg).

I think you didn't get it right. I already use AutoGK, TMPGEnc, ffdshow and stuf, to encode avi's and mpg's. The result of DVD Shrink is vobs and ifo's in a DVD video structure. What I want to know is of a good prog to encode these files into avis and/or mpgs.
Thanks again for your time and patience.

Well, it is kind of weird. If you want to create avis or mpegs back ups from DVDs, I suggest again to use that programs (for AutoGK, you will need DVD Decrypter in IFO mode to do the ripping job).
But if you want another procces, you can use many other posibilities like: Dr. DivX (avi), DVDx (avi & mpeg), Flask Mpeg (avi & mpeg)...etc. You can use DGMPGDec or DVD2AVI to decompress the vob files into a d2v/ac3 or d2v/wav, an then use them directly with TMPGEnc or others programs too, or make a Avisynth frameserving... The possibilities are many. But I don't understand your question if you already used AutoGK or TMPGEnc.
