how i do it
create a folder on your desktop and name it whatever you want. mine is movie

put in your dvd and open dvd decrypter. go to mode, file..browse to movie folder and hit the dvd to hd button. when it's done take out the disc but leave the tray open. open dvd shrink and hit open files. browse to your folder and click it. it will scan real fast. when it's done you wills ee you files. if the bar is green at the top you are good to go. if it's red you need to try and deselect some shit to free up some room. start with the foreign language audio and go from there. as soon as the bar is green you are good.
hit backup and then select iso image and burn with decrypter in the top box and the bottom box browse to your folder. hit ok and close the tray. it will scan again real slow while it encodes. decrypter will open when it's done and it will burn. when you hear the chime it's done.
take out your disc and delete the contents of the folder.

with the new arccos protected discs you might be able to rip with decrypter but if you make it through the disc shrink won;t pick it up so you are gonna burn with dvd fan.

put in the disc and open fab. browse to your folder you want it to go to and start the rip. when it's done the process is gonna be the same but when you open shrink and hit open files you are gonna browse to your folder and select the video ts folder only. the rest is the same.

thats how i do it. another way that works but i don;t know if it works as well is to open dvd decrypter and hit mode, iso read and start the rip. when it's done you hit iso write and start the burn.
thats only for shorter movies i think since it's an exact 1 to 1 copy. most dvd's are duel layer and they are pressed so if you do it that way a lot might not fit. try it out. also with arccos that method won;t work.


if you don;t want to do an entire disc you can rip with shrink by going to open disc and hitting reauthor. drag your files you want to keep to the left. i don't know how to do it from there cause i don;t use that method.


good luck. thats all you need and it's all free. you can now rip and burn every dvd on the market. even the ones that are "copy proof"

get decrypter now. i just read that macrovision aquired the rights to it and is ordering it removed from hosting sites all over the place. i'm sure you will still be able to find it but you might as well get it now.

i grabbed all the free dvd authoring software and have it all stored on a flash drive in case i ever need it. now i have copies of it
