    How do i rip a dvd? (to avi, or whatever....not iso)

    Holy patience, Batman! ok, i though there was some issue. I mean DVD decryptor takes about 20 minutes to work, so in relation, that's alot longer...... Wait....can't i just copy the data from the dvd to my pc rather than using dvd decryptor?

    How do i rip a dvd? (to avi, or whatever....not iso)

    How long should an encode take? It looks like forever on my end. I selected the 2nd best quality, and left other variables as indicated in your guide. Total project length looks to exceed 3 hours, and estimated time often increases.... Is that normal?

    How do i rip a dvd? (to avi, or whatever....not iso)

    DVD decryptor reduces it to either iso or VIDEO_TS correct? Then you need something to compress it? Is that what Megu IV is for? edit: my apologies, reading your guide now, Rollyco....if i have any questions i'll add them.

    How do i rip a dvd? (to avi, or whatever....not iso)

    So i never needed to do this and now that i'd like to, i have no idea. I know it's childs play for many here so go easy on me. I just need something that will convert my dvd to a compressed format like avi or mp4. Something easy, i don't want complicated. I don't need super quality, just...

    How to join video files. (.001, part01.rar, .r00, .__a, etc)

    Um, thanks for the suggestions, but that's not what i am looking for. I have downloaded a video that is split into scenes, like there are 5 avi videos that make up on whole dvd and i need them to be joined into one video file. Tried it, it does not work. It won't even acknowledge video files...

    For double layer, which one: DVD+R or DVD-R????

    Thanks Rollyco, you're advice is valuable. I will look into the above details and if I'm lucky will really help.

    For double layer, which one: DVD+R or DVD-R????

    nono you misunderstood, it has menues, but they are mildly unstable. I can go to a chapter menu and select things, but it functions best when you hit "play all" and then just hit the next scene button on the remote. I am getting an alternate rip anyway, since i don't consider this completely...

    So the madness continues.

    For double layer, which one: DVD+R or DVD-R????

    It appears to play adequately in vlc. You cannot select chapters as you would with the dvd player, so it auto scrolls through the 1st layer of menues slowly. But yeah, no apparent issues. The issues i'm looking for are related to commanding a certain chapter, and that is frequently when things...

    For double layer, which one: DVD+R or DVD-R????

    Yeah, troubleshooting with this stuff is hell..... Real hell. I have 2 valid dvd burners, nero and alcohol, DL DVD-R and DVD+R, I try prepackaging the iso and also burning the image directly. I have tried those combinations and all i came up with is a pile of coasters. Im pretty sure it's just...

    Nice stuff. Many thanks. If im in future shop tonight i'll check if they have verbatim or sony. I have TDK, any idea if they are decent? I have been having epic issues burning one particular double layer dvd and so far im stranded. I don't think its time to blame TDK but maybe yet another brand...

    For double layer, which one: DVD+R or DVD-R????

    Basically I need them to burn stuff like 5 GB DVDs and stuff to playback on a standard old fashioned DVD player. which is better suited? I ask because I always thought the -R ones were intended for that purpose, but I cannot find them in stores anywhere, I've called so many places. Thanks

    does megaupload work differently with file manager (Flashget)??

    I always have a RS account, and recently just tried hotfile for one go. They both work the same with my flashget: i highlight the links in the browser with the cursor, hit copy, flashget dialogue pops up and then i just confirm the login to the RS/hotfile server and it goes into my manager and i...

    Hotfile? Why? Is there something i don't know? I've gotten into the habit of scouring the direct Downloads recently, and a few users consistently use hotfile. How come? Do they have unlimited downloads for non premium users? First time i ever heard of it.....Rapidshare all the way, i say...

    I dunno, figured i'd ask, no one else seems to have noticed, i did a keyword search and there's no discussion about it: cedar has stopped uploading ISOs and i'm wondering why. Has anyone got any intelligence on that matter? I guess the era of the avi is making a comeback.... :crash:
