Good day all. I am trying to rip a dvd and convert directly to divx so I can burn onto cdr. I am using Super DVD Ripper but the problem is that the file is either auto split in two or its too long to fit on a 700MB cdr. Does anyone know a better ripper/compressor software that will allow me to fit the whole movie onto one cdr or are there settings I am missing? Thank you
you could simply stick the pieces back together with something like VirtualDub. For encoding I used to use FlaskMpeg, found it to be very good on file size and quality when using the xvid codec. not done it for a while now, may be better options availble, but I'm sure that you would be pleased with its results. http://www.flaskmpeg.net/ Oh yeah ... free too
I recommend GordianKnot http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_encoders/gordian_knot.cfm In my opinion it is The Best :^) There is also AutoGK, a more automatic program similar to Dr.DivX (but free!) more suitable for nOObies. But try the Real Deal version first, it is not overly challenging. Yes Flask works too, I have used it but not lately... It had some problems when the DivX nth-pass codec was first introduced, and I never went back. Anyway I just backed-up Spider-Man 2 to only 1 700MB CD easily, and it is a 127 minute long movie. The DivX/GK quality is excellent ;^) although I still suffered terribly watching the (stupid) film... LoL Regards
