Crusoe Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Handbrake on a Mac. Free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Yep, Handbrake is the best that I know of. http://www.owtb.co.uk/index.php?s=&sho...st&p=208361 Handbrake converts the contents of the VIDEO_TS folder on a DVD to MP4 format.

Lookers_Carl Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 Thats strange....the Hangover ripped first time for me. Working fine now, my bad. Had an invalid directory re where it was copied to. Its amazing how much crap iTunes must load onto it, harry potter 6 was about 1gb, on itunes music store its 2.12gb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Quality of the A/V and the dim (however unnoticable) will reduce the file size. The latest Handbrake version has dropped the XviD (better quality) codec in favour of the H.264 (better speed). Virtually unnoticed loss on a regular WS PC or lappy screen, however stick it on yer 42" in the front room and you should see some loss.

So far after having a play about, no noticable difference between the ripped versions and my other digital copies from itunes (the ones you got free with a blu ray) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
