Sherlock Holmes giving problems also

[chris]

anyone having a problem burning sherlock holmes?
it keeps on prompting... "do you want to burn again?"
have tried 3 different blank discs.
am using ver 7.0.3.0, with pathplayer= on
(sorry i was not able to write down the error code, I think it was =2 or =3)

Are you using DVD5 or DVD9 setting? At present you can back up this movie as per other posts in this thread with various products. If you set fab to DVD9 and burn onto a DL disk no problems. Not sure about the VSO engine as I use Imgburn. Hope this helps

dvd fab

I had the same problem put in a dl disc and it made the disc. my program said it was ripping in dvd5 an 4.3gb but it always came up with 5.55gb I think that is the problem.

Sherlock Holmes

have any of you folks who already have an advance copy of this movie also tried Passkey & maybe DVDShrink as another approach ... just curious ... i'd give it a shot since Passkey is still free ...
altho i'm sure Fengtao will come up with fix by time flick is generally available to all since it is a popular one ...

I too had trouble with this one. It would decrypt but would not compress or, when it eventually did (I reinstalled DVDFab (6.2.1.8)) it left 4.8Gigs instead of its usual 4.17Gigs. Finally after 3 trys, I used the old but dependable DVD Decrypter then used DVD Shrink to get the proper sized set of files.
This seems to be just a problem with S.H. as 3 other DVDs were backed up without problem.

Me Too!

Sherlock Holmes has caused me the same problem. I cannot burn, and it states the same error message as mentioned previously.

Cannot burn "Sherlock Holmes" video

Hi,
I had the same experience in not being able to burn the video "Sherlock Holmes". I found that if I used a double layer DVD it "burnt" correctly. Make sure your DVD burner will support double layer format DVD's and set DVDFab 7 in DVD9, and you should be able to burn said video. Hope this helps.

Sherlock Holmes giving problems

Sherlock Holmes giving problems is doing the some thing. Does anyone if there is a fix for it .

Passkey is not even needed, just use Shrink. I just used it and its perfect. You may be interested to know for an old program, Shrink works on most movies. Hope this helps..

You are correct checkers.
But you need to set fab on dvd 9 before ripping to hard drive. At least I did and I removed all the foreign language options.
This helped reduce the compression size for shrink.
Movie Only and R1.

Ok I posted yesterday that I backed my copy up I didnot check the output file, and yes it was too large for a DVD 5 So sorry, I put the cart before the horse.. but I did today use the other post and use shrink and Imgburn and it worked ok, Iam a lifetime member also, I do not back up alot due to some of my movies are only to me good to watch once, and I generaly watch the movie first before making a decision if I want to back it up, So I never get in a hurry when a problem happens, I know that the fix will always get done in time. So sorry for yesterdays post....

Like said already Passkey and DVD shrink can do the movie until DVDFab is able to compress it correctly

My first post after using DVDFab since it first came out years ago...

Haven't read all of this thread - however, RipIt4Me>Shrink>Imgburn works fine to backup either main movie or whole disk for Sherlock Holmes Region 1. Yes, I would say the problem is in the transcoding part of DVDFab. RipIt4Me (actually the FixVTS part) removes over 16,000 extraneous pack headers before the compression transcoding, which I'm guessing is the problem.

I don't profess to be an expert - however, I'm pretty good at approaching things logically. I always use DVDFab first, then RipIt4Me next, then wait for an update to DVDFab that solves whatever the problem might be.
