Hey all. DVD ripping/encoding question: I�m ripping and encoding movies and dvd series I�ve purchase so I can watch em on the run. (Carrying around DVD�s everywhere is just silly to me.) I usually use ad-hoc apps I�ve found that encodes to an avi file with a divx codec, but I�m wondering if anyone else out there is in this practice and has a better method/app/codec to use. I�m a quality freak though, so for example: a 20-or so minute 1 GB Family Guy episode off the DVD will get encoded down to a 100 MB .avi file so it still looks nice even full screened.
So if anyone has better methods, codecs or software, please feel free to share tips. Right now I�m using 0SEx 0.0110a1.app to rip and D-Vision 2 to encode.. One of em doesn�t have any support, the other app is in english but the support files are in french,
so anything will help. Thanks!
one caveate: I am a quality freak, and I am pretty opposed to any apparent 'all-in-one' app.. I have never seen an app like that produce a quality file. If you really feel you have a good example that can trump my opinion, I'm open to the possibility.
