Any DVD Shrink 1.1.2 Its a way to make DVD copies, however, its not 1:1 DVD copy. As we know, commercially-released video DVDs are typically dual layer DVD-9 discs with 8.5GB file size. However, the most common used DVD disc type is DVD-5. When people wants to back up their purchased commercial DVD-9 movies to DVD-5 discs, a DVD shrink tool is needed. Shrink DVD-9 to DVD-5 DVD-9 is one form of DVD discs which means a single-sided dual-layer DVD disc. DVD-9 can hold approximately 7.95 gigabytes of data, even though marketers like to use the 8.5GB value instead. DVD-5 is an acronym that means a DVD disc that is one-sided single-layer disc and can contain upto 4.38 gigabytes of data on it, however, DVD disc manufacturers love to use marketing terms and sell their discs as 4.7GB discs. But this is misleading and is calculated by using so-called "Japanese gigabytes" which means that gigabyte is calculated as 1,000 megabytes, but in real computer terminology, gigabyte is 1,024 megabytes. Of course, DVD-9 is expensive than DVD-5. If you want to back up many DVD-9 movies, you may probably use a DVD shrink tool to shrink DVD-9 to DVD-5. A DVD burner which supports DVD-9 burning is also expensive than a DVD burner which only supports DVD-5 burning. If you are using a DVD-5 burner, you have to shrink DVD-9 to DVD-5 if you want to make DVD copies from DVD-9 movie. DVD Shrink A free DVD shrink tool comes with the name DVD Shrink. It used to be famous and useful. However, DVD shrink is no longer in development. On August 17, 2005, the official DVD Shrink website was updated to say that the site "is no more!", prompting many sites to mirror the latest DVD Shrink version and offer it for download. This was a result of DVD Shrink's web host receiving a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notice, as compromising digital encryption is prohibited (only in United States, DMCA is not international law). Shortly after, the Web site was restored, and a search box was put in place of the download link. DVD Shrink is no longer available from the official web page, but it is available from many other sites on the Internet and it suggests finding a download source using a general web search, "DVD Shrink". Any DVD Shrink & Region Code DVD shrink tools, such as DVD Shrink, Any DVD Shrink, DVDCloner, usually re-encode the movie in lesser quality and/or discard extra content so as to fit on a DVD-5 disc.. |
