ImgBurn 2.5.8.0

ImgBurn description

ImgBurn carries on from where DVD Decrypter left off!

ImgBurn can write most types of CD / DVD images and it supports all the latest writers (including booktype / bitsetting on many of the major ones - i.e. BenQ, LiteOn, NEC, Plextor, Sony). You can even use ImgBurn to erase / format your rewritable media!

ImgBurn will do its very best to burn DVD-Video double layer images using the layer break you've specified in the IFO files, but also calculates the best place for you saving you the trouble.

Advanced functionality can be found in context menus that appear when you right click on various bits of the user interface.

NOTE: You can also download the portable edition, called Portable ImgBurn.

DVD Shrink 3.2.0.15: Free Download

Publisher'sDescription

DVD Shrink is a versatile freeware tool for fitting a DVD-Video disc on a single DVDR disc.

DVD Shrink is capable of both re-authoring and re-encoding the movie. It features an intuitive user interface which makes it easy to choose what to keep, and what to lose.

DVD Shrinks allow the user to select compression level for each video track separately to obtain the desired disc size (which is usually below 4.38GB). The software is capable of producing either an ISO image of the ripped DVD, or a VIDEO_TS folder for further processing, viewing or burning.

We recommend you read our fully instructional guide:

How to copy DVDs with DVD Shrink

In this article, we will look at copying a DVD-Video disc (retail movie etc.) to a blank DVD disc (DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW etc.) using a program called DVD Shrink and others if required. The resulting DVD will be of very good quality and can have as much of the original content as you want. This guide has instructions right from compressing the DVD to fit on a 4.36GB (4.7) blank DVD disc, to burning it.

Introduction & Requirements

	Software you must download and install
	DVD Shrink
	Required: Obviously you will need to download and install DVD Shrink for this guide. The program is completely free to download. Download!
	ImgBurn
	Required: Once DVD Shrink has compressed your original DVD enough to fit on a blank disc, you can use ImgBurn to burn it. It is also completely free. Download!
	MenuShrink
	Optional: Appendix A of this guide includes instructions to use MenuShrink to convert Motion Menus to Still Menus to save space and improve quality. It is completely optional. Download!
	Nero Burning ROM
	Optional: This guide uses ImgBurn to burn the DVD Shrink output to a blank DVD disc, but Appendix B has instructions on how to do so with Nero Burning ROM if you have it. Download!

You will need to have enough free space for this process. The DVD Shrink output will be around 4.36GB in size and if you plan to rip the DVD contents to your hard drive to speed up the process, it could be as much as 8.5GB extra space. To burn, you obviously need a DVD burner and a blank DVD+/-R(W) disc (DVD-RAM will NOT do!). DVD Shrink is very fast at compressing, but this process depending on the speed of your computer might take a little while to complete.

What does DVD Shrink do?

If you are looking to make a backup copy of a purchased DVD disc, then DVD Shrink is a great help. It is the easiest solution for taking a DVD-9 (a dual-layer DVD, most retail DVDs are dual layer) and converting it to DVD-5 (4.3GB or less, DVD-R / DVD+R are examples of DVD-5 in terms of capacity limits). Unless you have dual layer blank DVDs, which are noticeably more expensive than regular blanks, you will need to make sure the resulting copy is 4.36GB or less in size.

The program is very flexible, and it tries to balance quality and content as best as possible. You can improve the quality of the output copy by cutting out areas of the DVD that you do not need, such as extras, directors commentary, foreign audio, subtitles etc. but you can also opt to keep all of these things at the expense of quality. If all you care about is the DVD movie and not the menu or anything else, you will get the best copy (Read - How to copy DVDs (Movie Only) with DVD Shrink), but if there are other things on the disc you wish to keep, then stick to this guide.

Let's begin - Move to Page 2 On the next page, we take a look at DVD shrink for the first time and show you hope to open a DVD in the program and deal quickly with any errors you may receive with newer DVDs. Page 2 - Open DVD with DVD Shrink
