Sometimes you want
to copy a DVD-9 disc but not reduce it's quality by compressing it. In that
case all you can do is split the DVD-9 and create two DVD-5 disc each containing
the half movie. Let's see how to do that!
Note: This guide
uses the old version of DVD Shrink, using it with the new one is just the
same and you will have no trouble.
 |
Start DVD Shrink,
load the disc and select the main movie. |
 |
Select No Compression. |
 |
Select Re-Author.
A new window opens. |
 |
Drag main movie
titleset from the first window to this new one. |
 |
Select No Compression
and then click Start / End. |
 |
In End Frame you
are going to select where you want it to split. |
 |
Here I selected
Chapter End at 24 instead of original 47. Then select OK to get the first
disc. |
 |
It should look
like this. Select Backup! to save the first disc. |
 |
Under Target Folder
select where you want to save first disc. |
 |
Wait for the encoding
to finish. Then you have the first disc of the 2 disc set. |
 |
Take the same steps
for the second disc till you get here. Start frame will be the next chapter
after the one you ended with in step 6. Proceed same as before. |
 |
Select another
folder for disc 2 of the split movie
Note that I made a folder on my hard drive called
dvd and 2 sub folders in it called disk_1 and disk_2 you can call
them whatever you like. I did this to keep down confusion on my part.
The encoding window comes up again. When it is
finished encoding the split set is in each folder you selected and
ready to burn any way you like. I personally use copytodvd by vso
or Nero by Ahead.
