alright I purchased this archos av420
i've been messing around with it for a few days and doing some research
they had some preloaded software on there like virtual dub and some other mp4 stuff.

anyhow, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction in how to take a dvd and get it to I guess avi format to play on this device. I've been playing around with bin/cue files and extracting the mpeg to mpeg2 is what I think it would be then trying to load in virtual dub with this mp4 software that archos makes, but no luck whatsover. getting some errors.

I also had some movies that were dvdrip.xvid. I used winrar to get it to an avi file, then loaded it to the archos av420 and it will NOT play it. I have no clue why.

anyhow, sorry but just looking for some direction. I've messed around with movies before, but mostly dvd2one, dvd decrypter, dvd shrink, etc. but not taking a dvd and trying to get it to play on something else.
