    I am trying to convert my DVD collection to any file type that will play on the WD TV media player (mpeg1/2/4, wmv9, avi, etc) and preserve the quality.

    I have tried some trial versions of ripper software, but they have all taken about 12-13 HOURS to create a file from an 85 minute movie. Is that normal? It seems awfully long given the time to rip to .vob files is no longer than the movie itself.

    Is there a way to convert the .vob files to .avi or another that will play on the WD TV?

    Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

    I always use SPAM for Mac.It works as ripping DVD to MP4, DVD to AVI, DVD to FLV, DVD to MP3, DVD to AAC, etc.
