2.Theres slight audio sync problem of about 1 sec not much can this be fixed?or can i adjust settings before encoding?

Use dvd shrink its better.

[decryptit]

if you stick on recode you have an option near target size.

Use Dvdshrink. Next time you encode you can use a bitrate calculator to get the proper size file.

He has already tried dvd shrink

Does anyone know where i'm going wrong with DVD shrink. I encoded something with it and the result was'nt very good, in fact worse than a badly done DivX film. Do you have to put a bitrate in or what because all that it offered me was a compression slider thing. And i went through all the options and setting and everything.

May i ask you what was the filesize of your dvd.
IF it was something like 8-9gb then expect that.
You can also use the reauthor feature to remove unuseful crap such as chapter selecting ,3or more audio channels etc.

About 3.2gb

And yes, i removed all uneccessary thing's like chapters and everything just the film.

[decryptit]

If you have only 3.2g there is no need to "shrink" anything just make sure you have all files decrypted.

I wanted to shrink it to see if the compression was better when i re-encoded it to DivX.

[decryptit]

Using divx directly is better .You''l see.
