Has anyone got a successful recipe ("Profile") for encoding DVD movies into MP4 files which give good playback on the iPod Video? Also when I try creating a new Nero Digital encoding profile the program just crashes "Faulting application recode.exe, version 2.2.7.5, faulting module recode.exe, version 2.2.7.5, fault address 0x000ba9d1." (v7.0.1.2) Nigel
"Has anyone got a successful recipe ("Profile") for encoding DVD movies into MP4 files which give good playback on the iPod Video?" Here is what I do to make good quality MP4 movies, using AnyDVD and Nero Digital. They look and work great in my iPod Video. * Start AnyDVD * Insert DVD Movie (Then wait about 5-8 seconds / Put mouse on RED FOX (Located In System tray) - make Sure it reads “ON 1” * Click Nero Start Smart / Click Nero Recode / Click Recode DVD’s and Videos to Nero Digital * Make sure Nero Digital Profile is set to Standard (Click “More” located bottom left, Profiles will be located bottom right * Un-tick “Fit to target” - Click Import Files * Click “Import Files” Double click main movie to start analying * Click “Settings” in Audio panel - Select 128 or 160 kbps - 44100 Hz - Click OK * Click Subtitle Tab - Under Main subtitle track: Change to NONE * Click Video - Click Resize - Tick Custom Resize - Change number on right side to 224 / bottom to 320 - Letterboxing should also be checked for video that is 16:9 Definition and not checked for Standard 4:3 definition - Click OK * Video Quality should be 500-600 kbps (Use the video quality slider to adjust the level) - Click Next * Click Nero Digital Settings - Make sure Expert Mode is checked - Click Encoding Method - Select High quality encoding (2-pass) - Select Quality/Speed - Click Advanced - Tick Simple Profile (QuickTime(TM) Compatibility) * Click Burn
Do you get the same crash/error I reported if you try and create a new Nero Digital conversion profile? (under the Nero Digital settings / Expert settings). Frankly, its about time we got a bug-fixed version of Nero 7. Nigel

Brilliant, thanks, I have tried many other free DVD to ipod (AVI or Divx) programms and all I got was headaches and spyware. Thanks again.
I just installed the latest update to Nero 7 and recode still crashes when you attempt to save a profile. I'll be sending in an error report to them on this issue today.
I dont know if this what you're looking for but check out this thread all the way through http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/260461
Also having issues with Nero Recode 2 not proceeding beyond first pass. I am converting from DVDDecrypt single VOB file any suggestions. Thanks
km4304 Thank you soooooooo much for the Nero Recode guide...I have been going outta my head all week trying to find a decoder and nothing seemed to work....yet...i had this under my nose the whole damned time and didnt know it!~!! I tried at least 5 other tools and no success....the nero recode works so well and takes almost no time at all...thansk again!
@km4304 my dell laptop gives me the option to switch nero digital profile to standard but my hp laptop doesnt have a standard option, just standard-avc
Thanks for the great guide. It worked very well! Only one question: If I am planning to watch one of these movies on my TV with the video out cable, should I use these same settings or bump up some settings (like the 320x224 res, or the bitrate, etc?) I watched a couple on my TV and they didn't look bad, but not great either. Thanks in advance, I appreciate the help!
