DVD Shrink is software to backup DVD disks. You can use this software in conjunction with DVD burning software of your choice, to make a backup copy of any DVD video disk. DVD Shrink does not burn DVDs! The output from DVD Shrink is saved as files on your hard drive, which you can then burn to a DVD-R using separate burning software, such as the software provided with your DVD-R drive.

Besides minor bugfixing from the version 2.0 , the developer added a new Backup compression routine and added 2 new compression Levels. Level 9 and 10 are now there. It also seems, that there was a bug in 2.0, that made verison 2.0 a bit slow while encoding. But now this seems to be solved, so that one can backup a full DVD with 7GB including all extras and menus in about 80mins, like it has been the case in version 1.03.

Screenshot Version 2.20 - 11 June 2003 - Fixed bug where fast forward/fast backward playback did not function correctly in target disk. Version 2.10 - 11 June 2003 - Improved compression and new levels. The quality is much improved.
- Added unicode support for Japanese language. Japanese release is unicode, all other languages are MBCS since unicode doesn't work on Windows 98.
- Hide audio/subpicture streams of negligible size is turned off by default. Also fixed filtering bug in Streams View.
- Fixed bug where "Still Pictures" mode failed while encoding menus.
