TheBigSwigg 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2004 I want to put some of my DVD's on my Hard Drive. Should I use DivX? What's the best program for this? Will "copy protected" DVD's do the wavy shit they do on my VCR? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shoes Head Report post Posted October 5, 2004 Get MagicISO and just take your DVD and turn it into an image (iso). You won't lose any quality and can keep them in a single file. It also makes a flawless copy for those of us who still file-share. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 I use DVD Decrypyter, you can download it for free from the official website. Once you rip the VOB, you can use DVD 2 AVI program and the VOB will convert to AVI and then use TMPEG, another free program downloadable off their site, to covert it to MPG format.

Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2004 Programs/Apps Needed DVD Decrypter DVD2AVI TMPGEnc Steps 1. Insert DVD into DVD Drive 2. Open DVD Decrypter 3. Choose what you want from the chapters menu. *look at the chapters paper in your DVD cover of where is what* 4. Then click the button thats in RED in the image 5. A window should open and it should be creating a .vob file, wait til it's done. 6. When done, open DVD2AVI 7. When you find the files cut it down to what you want. *NOTE*change audio output to .wav format., GO TO AUDIO > OUTPUT METHOD > Decode to WAV (AC3, LPCM)*NOTE* 8. When done with that, go to File > Save Project As...., and then put in name whatever you want to save it as, and then save in folder where you want to. 9. Next, open up TMPGEnc 10. When you find the file that you saved in DVD2AVI, just keep going next, change whatever settings you want to your needs. Then convert to .mpg format. 11. DONE! ____________________________ This is what i do to rip DVDs, and its faster to do because when you save as AVI in DVD2AVI it shouldn't take very long.
