Slow Encoding (Need Help)

[Snagglepuss]

I've been using DVD Shrink 3.2 for a little over a month now. Four days ago, I noticed that it's been analyzing slow, encoding for 1hr and 40 mins and burning for 2 hours. Analyzing used to take less than 1 minute. Encoding was 35 mins max. And burning was less than 15 minutes. Do you think it's something to do with my computer? My friend told me that he has the same problem. Please help.

Thank you in advance.

Check your DMA settings - How ? do this -> Go to Control Panel> System> Hardware Tab> Device Manager> IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers> Right Click Primary IDE channel (and Secondary IDE channel after you finish with Primary)> Properties> Advanced Settings Tab> Transfer Mode or <a href="http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=101616">click here to learn.</a>

Do the above from both "Primary & Secondary IDE channels".

I (We) and you need to look at whats in both "Transfer Mode" and "Current Transfer Mode". Screen shot below is what I'm talking about.

If it is in "PIO" mode. Click the "Driver" tab, and uninstall the driver. Then reboot. Upon rebooting windows will automatically reinstall the driver and it should go back to "DMA" mode.
