From a beginner user, what would be the best software for "All-in-one" type conversion? I want to convert my DVD's to XviD codec, (as I here this is the best codec to use for quality). I'm looking for a fast program which I can add the IFO or VOB files and convert to one movie without having to join afterwards?
Thanx @ugc. I had a problem though with the latest download they are offering. I tried downloading and installing avi.NET v2.0.5.0 - released 16th January 2006. After install, I tried to run and it abnormally terminates. I uninstalled and rebooted, then reinstalled and it did the same thing. I then ran the repair by running the install again, and it still does the same thing. Is this a stable version? Do you know of a functioning version I could try downloading? Thank you for your response!
Hi, @pntyliner if you are having trouble running the program you need to get the microsoft netframe download from windows update. Without that the program will not run. Use this link as I just searched and found it http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...b-4362-4b0d-8edd-aab15c5e04f5&displaylang=en. Install that and you will have no more abnormal terminations.
hi pntyliner, i find imtoo dvd to divx converter ,you can trial for free. its link:http://www.imtoo.com/dvd-to-divx-converter.html
Thanks guys, I tried both. However, I also tried 1click dvd ripper. Out of all three, I find 1click a bit better but more time consuming. I tinkered with Imtoo more and like the fact you can maximize you processor useage with it. I more or less use the defaults which are original screensize, PAL 25 fps, bitrate 1100. Although it's a good picture, i do see a bit of graininess when opening to full size. Is the DivX codec any better than using XviD, or are there any particular settings I should be using for framerate or bitrate to maximize the potential of "the best" possible quality I can get from my re-encode? Thanks everybody, I appreciate the help. This place is great!
