Cant complain the interface looks good. Will use this once DVD Decryptor is unusable but most probably wont be the best like DD.

It seems to be a good program.
It ripped my recent dvds without any problem.
For those having problems finding files : simply indicate where you want your movies to be ripped to.
Dvdshrink will then find all the required files !!!!!

A big PLUS would be when this program will be able to make ISO images as well.
Otherwise, as long as they keep it up to date, it is good.

I see what you mean drukqs. I just tried Hitch and got the same massage as you in shrink. The first movie I did was old and no problem. Had to use DVD Decrypter 3.5.4 for Hitch.

i hope no one thinks this will replace decrypter. it was a big let down. i used it to rip hitch. it ripped it fine but u cant burn it. i tried shrink and recode to compress--no dice. then i tried to burn a dl disc with Nero...no dice. then as a last resort i tied 1 click dvd to compress...close but no cigar. i ran AnyDVD in back the whole time. if this is the best weve got i think were in trouble.

Just found out that Fengtao Software is a company based on China. Great news! We don't need to worry about Macrovision suing/shutting down Chinese companies.

lol It was probly coded by some 10 year old kids that work 20 hrs a day for a cup of rice.

So gamename were you able to get any thing to work on the Hitch DVD ?

I had trouble making a backup of Hitch with DVDClone but used DVDFab express with movie only and it plays perfect.

I think Lighting UK should continue his work but use another name and the end users should pay for Lighting UK's product. He should use a differnt communitation source and have the download moved to different server locations every hour or daily.

I've used dvd decryter along with DVD Shrink for some time now and I really don't think anything else compares. It's a shame that we're going to be with out a good tool to work with.

Spelling cop: "halt" not "hault"...

lmao, squizzle, it's turned into another Hitch thread!, i'm outta here, it's Spanglish/Closer/<movie of the week> all over again

But am gonna check this software out

:)

yes i ripped with DVD Decrypter and any dvd.

Tried DVDFab Express to backup Hitch. Failed four times. Program either stalled or locked my computer.
DVD Decryptor worked the very first time. I guess there's more hype than substance to DVDFab Express.

Hi, downloaded DVDFab Decrypter . unbelievably easy to copy dvd to hard drive. How can I view the film from hard drive, or what do I need
Thanks (newbie)

So far I have been using this software since it came out I have Decrypted : Coach Carter, Hitch, and Are we there yet? just to name a few. I think it definitely does its job. We are going to have to use something other than DVD Decrypter soon even though I hate to loose it. The challenge I had with some movies was after using DVDFab Decrypter shrink wouldnt work well with the files and I started getting error messages until I figured out when this happens I could use Nero Recode 2 version 2.00.18 part of Nero vision express version 2.1.2.16, Nero OEM 6.3.1.17. I use the remake a video option using the files that I ripped to my hard drive using DVDFAB Decrypter and I get high quality DVDs with the options I want to keep on a 4.7GB DVD. Hope this helps anyone that was having a similar problem.

I used DVD Decrypter and Shrink for Closer and Hitch to back up with no problems. However, after using it for Hitch I started having problems with burning. Don't if its all tied together, still trying to fix problem.

I used DVDFab Decrypter on Hitch and Are We There Yet and had no problem getting the files to my hard drive. After that DVD Shrink didn't want anything to do with them so after messing with it for awhile I just dumped the whole mess and started again with DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink and had no problem with either movie.

Used DVDFab followed by shrink, no problems. I think for a first version release this program definitely shows promise. I will miss DVD Decrypter though.

I have all ways used DVD Shrink 3.2 , DVD Decrypter ruing any DVD in the back ground and only have had a few that i could not back up unless i ripped with VobBlanker ! So with the Loss of DVD Decrypter I guess there will be a lot trying to make a program as wqell as it was and Free.

Question: Will I lose DVD Decrpter if I install "fab"?

How do they interact?

How do I make it work? Is it like decrypter, working "in the background"? Thanks, CW

Has anyone considered doing a reverse compile on DVDDecryptor and releasing the source. Given that the program reports no copyright notice, the worst that could happen is the author would sue for an injunction. That isn't likely to happen. And given that the author is only identified as "UK Lighting", first there would be a large burden of proof to prove he is the author.

Americans in the US can't do this due to the DCMA, and many other countries have simmular law. As a Canadian resident, I could try it. But as soon as C-60 is passed I would be blocked as well. However, I sure there are many countries where this could still be done.

I have problems ripping the movie < HOW HIGH >I USED DVD DECRYPTER>DVD SHRINK>FAB DECRYPTER AND NOTHING,WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? PLEASE HELP

it's not cuse AnyDVD is better both DVD Shrink and abydvd do the same thing but the thing is that DVD Shrink has less options but only by a lttle thats all the reason the happened to u was cause it wasd dirty it happened to me using clone dvd once don't worry just clean it allot

I dvd xcopy I bought when they were still being sold. I know they will not decrypt the newer dvds but had been using it to record some. I had to use a recovery disc on my hard drive. When I tried to reinstall xcopy, it took me thru the registration process and of course, that is where the installation stoped. I guess the software is not of any value whatsoever. am I missing something? Thanks, Beneking
