Hi Smeggy,
I really don't know for sure, but I would think that any general multimedia
group that accepts mixed formats, e.g., .AVI, DVD, etc., wouldn't care if the
DVD had been shrunk to DVD5. I would mention any shrinkage in the .NFO, though.
Keep in mind that not all of your DVDs have been shrunk. Some commercial
releases are already DVD5. You can check IMDb to see if the DVD you have is SL
or DL. All of your 'natural' DVD5s can be posted on any DVD group, providing the
genre is acceptable.
Good luck!
Isis
