Tried this out with some of my movies but Im not gteitng any results. Is there some hidden wiki that I could visit to verify settings for the plug-ins?I have downloaded and installed DVD43.Ripper Settings:- Media set to the DVD-ROM- Output pointing to a shared Video folder on the computer- Handbrake_Windows plugin enabledPlug-in settings:- No Suffix applied- Set to avi- Set to Classic (Unsure what this setting does)I then run the tool to recognize the DVD and then press the rip button.- A cmd box appears for a few seconds and then disappears.Nothing else happens. Are there other settings that I need to manually edit for the DVD43 connection? Or is that automatic? Does the DVD need to be in ISO format? As for additional features Are there plans on adding a subtitle ripping as well? Or allowing resolution adjustments? (For those videos that prove troublesome with AR) Or allowing audio to be ripped into different formats? (for avi I would prefer VBR mp3, but for my mkv 5.1 would be preferred)

Im a bit of an indie snob. So certain bands shulod feel off limits to me. I dont like the Corrs perse, but yeah, that song does something to me. The original video to that song was released in the early 90 s, but another video was released in the late 90 s. All live footage, from what I can remember, but there was one part in the video where Andrea turned around on stage and she had like a backless top. Only lasts a couple of seconds, but the most feminine pose Ive ever seen in my life. Yeah she is SWEET. A very beautiful woman.

Ive been using handBrake to archive movies to a video server/hard drive and the results are as good as one can hope for. It uses X264 to transcode standard DVD video to one of two containers MP4 or my preference MKV.

There are a few useful choices for those who are moderately advanced in working with movie backups, but for me there are really only two that four important ones that Im interested which include: MKV container, 5:1 surround sound, subtitles, and chapters.

A onetime setback for those compressing to tight packaged containers has always been a lost of quality and extremely long re-encode times. This has not been proven an issue with handbrake which does little visual harm to the original with a choices to minimize it more with a larger file size, and its really quite fast. About 20 minutes on an overclocked Core2 Q9650.

Playback can be an issue if one is expecting to use typical DVD player such as PowerDVD, WinDVD and even ARcSofts TMT3 which Im currently using as my DVD/BD player. I also happen to have a copy of DiVx plus player and it works great with it including sifting through chapters. I suspect that other players such as VLC will also suffice, but I havent tried it yet.

In short, this is an excellent method of archiving small packaged movies using X264 which is free, and can arguably compete with or surpass the best commercial H264 encoders.

I am converting all my DVD's to Digital and placing on my external hard drive. This program works Excellent!!!!
