    Hiya,
    Can anyone tell me the average time to encode a downloaded movie, it seems to be taking me hours to encode then burn to disc.
    Thanks.
    Linda.

    That really depends on the programs you use and the properties of the downloaded movies. With e.g. VSO DivxToDVD, it'll be something between half to 1:1 time.

    Thanks for your reply. I'm now using ConvertXtoDVD which is a lot quicker, but can you tell me how when I download a film and it's on two discs how I put them onto one dvd? I'm not very technical when it comes to things like this.
    Thanks

    Faster than half time? Hmmm, this is something worth checking out. *_*

    Anyway, about your question: Suppose you have two video_ts folders on the harddisk, you can use e.g. Shrink (reauthor function) or Nero Recode to put them onto one dvd if size is not a problem.

    Happy DVD authoring!
