whats the best way to rip and burn dvd's in vista.or the best programs for doing it

 

I use:

The Official ImgBurn Website

and

DVD Shrink: Shrink your DVDs to fit DVDR!

 

i can't get dvd shrink to run for some reason?

 

What happens? Have you tried running it as Administrator?

 

i'm the only user and i am an admin nothing happens i double click it and nothing happens.
ps i have got imgburn working

 

Regardless, try right clicking the shortcut/exe and choosing 'Run As Administrator' Also try running it in XP Compatibility Mode, although I don't need to do either to run it in Vista Premium for some reason.

 

I use a combination of DVDDecrypter & DVDShrink.

 

tried those 2 things still no joy ,i also turned of uac off still no joy

 

ImgBurn was spawned from DVDDecryptyer when it ceased development It uses the same burn engine as the final version, but is still being developed.

farmerwrx - Sorry, can't help there then. I'd suggest AnyDVD otherwise, but its not free.

 

Oh really? I didn't know that, that's excellent new. I have about 75 backups of DVD Decrypter incase my machine goes bang, because its absolutely impossible to get hold of

I thought it looked like dvddecripter as its almost identical - I found the last released version of dvd decripter couldnt rip some new films but i will be giving that new one a whirl

 

In Vista Ultimate, I use same as above, and when Shrink or DVDDecryptor can't rip a dvd, I use Ripitforme, which also uses dvddecryptor and Shrink but uses some clever scripting as well, to get around any type of protection. It has never failed me yet. Then Nero 7.9 to burn.
