I did try to use the files after I uploaded them to the pc, after I
ran them through DVD Shrink. The refusal error was that I had not
selected a source. As I said in another post I just uploaded the
movies to my hard drive and that way I have no compression and crystal
clear images that way. There is nothing worse than pixelation from
compression. I hate it when it happens on the tv using satellite
compression. I used to be a C-Band person, then it just about went
away.
