Re: HOW TO: Rip Blu Rays to 720p DivX's or H.264's

Hey adailey87, I have come across your problem before. It seems to be something to do with the source file and the way the audio is stored. The only work around I have found is to set MediaCoder to 'no audio'. Once the video has been processed use a program to extract the audio from the source and t...

Re: HOW TO: Rip Blu Rays to 720p DivX's or H.264's

Hey Freezest, Interesting problem. I did come across something similar a little while back. I couldn't XviD a movie. I could play the movie but not transcode it. I have been to busy to play with it further and subsequent transcodes on other movies worked fine. I was going to try re-ripping from Blu ...

I have found on occasions that both players skip when trying to play AVC video's on my Q6600 quad core. The funny thing here is that when I drop those sa...

What about 1080p?

Hey Luvpeaceguru, Thanks for reading my post. I had a thought while writing your reply. If 720p is 1280 * 720 = 921600, and 1080p is 1920 * 1080 = 2073600, then 2073600 divided by 921600 = 2.25. Therefore 1080p is 2.25 times larger than 720p. So if we carried this over to optimal output sizes, a mov...

Hey B!ink thanks for the appreciation and defence :) I have an IT background and can usually nut most things out. In my line of work I have found most people either struggle with things technical or aren't really interested and are happy to follow step by step instructions. These type of walk throug...

720p MKV to 720p XviD using 'Target File Size'.

What I’m trying to do: I want to convert 1.1GB & 4.4GB 720p x264 AC3 5.1 MKV movies to 1.1GB & 4.4GB 720p AC3 5.1 XviD movies. I wish to keep them the same size as they’re multiples of a blank DVD, ie 4.4GB. My reasoning for this is as most people would have noticed, x264 movies require quite a bit...
