convert DVD to DivX
I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place. All I want to do is convert DVD disks to DivX files so as to have smaller files. I already use DVDfab Dycrypter quite successfully so I have a HDD full of ripped files also. I've tried several "converters" claiming to have this capability but so far none do. If someone can put me on the right track I'll be very grateful. Thanks.

If you search google for avi.net the 2nd entry is the software that Sharktooth mentioned...... and if you search for "avi.net" as neuron2 suggested the same website is the 1st listing......
http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=e...e+Search&meta= you might also want to try this particular search. |

Well, I only got as far as step 2 where you select audio & subtitle tracks. There weren't any to select from. I went back and re-read the guide and when I got to the part about "prepared VOB files" I assumed that was my problem since I'm pretty sure there are some alternate angles etc. on this disk.

Hmmm.....I got an e-mail saying Neuron2 had responded to my last post asking how I had ripped the files to my HDD. When I arrived here I found no such post. Anyway the answer is that I used DVDfab Decrypter which I have been using sucessfully for some time. A great program. It hasn't made me a coaster yet.

Update: I caught a virus in my new HDD & had to re-format yesterday so I decided to give AVI.NET a try on a fresh install. Guess what? No runtime error. It ran my files perfectly with one exception; NO AUDIO OR SUB-TITLES. I guess that's two problems. Any suggestions? BTW, during the course of my search I ran upon a fee based program called "fair use wizard" that converted a DVD perfectly. Only one catch (besides the price), it has to rip it's own files. It won't use files previously ripped to the HDD. It's beyond me why anybody would do that. it's fast too. It did a DVd in just over an hour on my Core 2 Duo.
