Clone DVD compared to DVD Shrink
For the speed test between Clone DVD and DVD Shrink we will transcode only the movie, with one language audio.
We will not include many pictures of DVD shrink since this is a CloneDVD review and not a DVD Shrink Review.
So first select the movie of the DVD, since we wanted to transcode this only.

Now remove the audio which we did not want to use for the test.

We left all the subtitles, since those normally take 5 MB to 8 MB max, per subtitle.
Now let’s go to general overview window before we start transcoding.

Just Press go and it will start transcoding the movie only.

The transcoding took 5 minutes and 23 Seconds as you can see in the screenshot above.
Now let’s compare how fast DVD shrink does the same project.

As you can see DVD Shrink is 13 Seconds faster on the exact same project.
Now this was of course a very low shrink so we decided to also include a test were we make a back-up of the full DVD, except we removed the DTS audio to keep the quality better.

Total transcoding time was 15 minutes and 51 seconds with a quality of 57%, lets see how long DVD Shrink takes to do the same job.

Well as you can see DVD shrink does the same job with 0.5 less quality than CloneDVD.

With the full DVD project Clone DVD was a bit faster than DVD Shrink, DVD Shrink took 18 minutes and 37 seconds for the same transcoding project.
