I've got a feeling that DVD Shrink works with the normal DVD files (and requires the VIDEO_TS folder), so you shouldn't be using ISO's if you want to manipulate the files. ISO should only be used if you want a 1-1 copy (which is only any good when you're working with s single layer DVD) If you leave everything with their defaults in DVD Decrypter (ie don't use ISO) then you should be right.

Damn! I wish I had inquired about the price of DD DVD drives. At the moment, at my fave store, LG brand DVD DDs are only $159, and I paid $119 for my SD burner. Doh! I just rented The Simpsons Season 3, which is 4 DVDs and the ISOs are all around 7GB, so I guess I'm toast. Doh! Fortunately I have enough space on the box to leave the ISOs there for a while, and maybe I'll get a new contract soon and be able to buy a DD DVD burner. I have the same problem with The Man Who Fell To Earth -- even when I kill the French, Spanish and Portuguese parts it's still too big. Oh well.
