I'm using Memorex DVDs. Should I format them before I put them in the burner? When I formated them, DVDShrink kept telling me it will not accept the disk (has stuff on it).
No, you don't format DVD-R nor DVD+R, ever!

I have made a success backup of "The Incredibles" for my kids some month ago.

Try this approach...download freeware DVDFab Decrypter from Here.
From the original, rip a backup with DVDFab Decrypter to your hard drive.
After that, use DVD Shrink to open the backup now on your HD. Use the reauthor mode of DVD Shrink to make a backup of the movie only as an ISO.
Take the ISO image of your movie and burn it with freeware ImgBurn Located Here!
BTW (by the way), I have seen many, many, reports of problems with Newer Sony players and Sony DVD burners over the last 18 months(no problems with older Sony just newer) in this and several other forums on the net.
Indeed, if one would pause and reflect one would realize it was, in fact, Sony that came up ARccOS DVD encryption and Sony Rootkits in their bid to stymie backups.
So, if I were you Dr. Brian I would use some other brand of DVD burner for your backups, especially if these aforementioned procedures are unsuccessful for you.

Regards,
