Jake Wants a New Computer or to build one!

[JakeBlues]

Will shrink open it? dude... it did.
I mean, grrrr sorry chewy I don't have a good vocabulary for this stuff.
I did the one click method for all 5 disk, didn't want 6 bonus crap.
Backed them each up using shrink to me reserve drive and burned them later in each case it claimed all was fine and back up sucessful.
When the first 2 were fine i didn't save the logs (cept the imgburn ones) because I thought they were all fine.. even the cd-dvd speed read says there is something on the disk and it'll play on the computer (the files umm the ISO I mean).
I understand quality means taking the time to do it right in the first place, and when your looking at a 5 disk collection it's easy to rush.. thats why I just used the one click and the cd/dvd/ speed the thing and go on about business. I guess I'll learn a lesson this time.
But shrink don't open ISO (does it?) Is there a way to go back and edit the ISOs once they been backed up like this?
Thank you friend

PS. I gotta remember.. just be patient the new system will be up and running soon!

[Chewy]

under the file command in dvdshrink, there's an open disk image(that's what an iso is)

and you have to use something like mediaplayerclassic to play an iso

that's why I avoid iso's

You can also open Dvd Shrink & click Ctrl/i.

[JakeBlues]

NOW THAT'S The Ticket!!!

The ctrl+I is what I have been looking for.. for this and other reasons.. I I will remember it in the future!
But in THIS instance I got this error

GG.. Thanks

which means your iso is hosed

take disk 4 and open with shrink and forget any other program

K.I.S.S.

[JakeBlues]

Ok chewy...
I am learning something new here... So I have to ask this:
YOU avoid ISOs.. but when I finish backing and shrinking my movies thats the END product is an ISO. WHY would YOU avoid these? And if they are not needed then why make them. Yes I read the rules for each maybe there is something I am NOT understanding here. Yes I have MPC it works and I can watch the Disk that I can't record via the MPC, I would like to know why you avoid the ISOs and why and if I am doing something ELSE wrong or making unneeded steps?
Like I told you before you make me stop and think sometimes!

Long ago and far away in a distant galaxy, there was an early version of shrink, an old version of nero and powerdvd

I would shrink a dvd, into files, check with powerdvd and then burn with nero

there's something about a standard dvd video involved

[ratboy]

Chewy,

About 5 or 6 hundered that same way.

Just started using ImgBurn.

I will give it a good try.

[JakeBlues]

Not sure what K.I.S.S. means other than Knights In Satan's Service (wahaha)
Ohh AND I AM NOT POST BUMPING HERE!!!
The meaning of this post is to learn something....
OK.. chewy, remember I am hard headed, old and have worked 10 hours today. But I am asking since YOU KNOW I use the one click method and shrink that puppy into an ISO and burn with ImgBurn.
WHAT is it you do differently than me and WHY do you prefer that method?
"YOU WOULD A DVD INTO FILES..CHECK WITH POWERDVD AND BURN WITH NERO".. ok but NOW what do you do and why.
I know you, your not a half-asser when it comes to quality and I'd like to atleast learn your way and THEN EXACTLY WHY you do that.. I know it's because of "results". But teach me.... it never hurts to have back up plan incase plan A goes wrong.
Thanks for taking the time to teach me all you've spent countless hours on teaching me so far!!!!! It hasn't gone wasted...I promise.

[JakeBlues]

RB.. I've tried Both.. but when I use the cd-dvd speed it seems I get better results with ImgBurn, we'll see when I get the new system Up and going!
Miss ya bro......

[Chewy]

what happened is with the extra steps you used somehow the dvd got hosed

mpc is dangerous, it might play a non-compliant set of video files?

KeepItSimpleStupid just means don't make anything more complicated than it needs to be

GG.. Thanks

If you ripped it with RI4M in ISO mode and the DVD was protected with ARccOS or Ripguard it won't open in Shrink because the rip was not cleaned up.

Band of Brothers (2001)
Studio: HBO Home Video

was there a new release by sony or disney?

Not that I know of but that is why I don't rip in ISO mode

[Chewy]

I kind of wonder if using ripit and one of his older drives caused the problem
