If you have it set to decode the AC3-compressed audio to plain WAV, doing 48K --> 44K rate conversion, and the "UltraHigh" filter... yeah it does take a long time (for me, it takes about the same time the movie is in length).

BTW, this IS the reccomended way to do it if you indend to make a VCD or SVCD from it. I don't think 48k audio works in most players (though I'm about to try a 48K SVCD to see for myself), so you HAVE to convert the sample rate, and DVD2AVI actually does this better and faster than some audio editing programs!

And if you don't use the "UltraHigh" filter, your sound will be tinny at best, unintelligible at worst. So it HAS to decode, AND filter, this takes some time.

If it took 10 minutes, I guarantee you were merely de-multiplexing the audio (it was dumping the audio stream directly without resampling). That sounds about right.

thanks man, for some reason now it's running even better 40mins to do audio, maybe it's because i changed some of the options , like remix the dolby sound etc......... and smart ripper is taking around 35mins to take care of the vob files, while tmpeg is taking about hour and half to hour and fourty five mins for each mpeg, im running 1.5ghz 256ram, does this soundr right for the tmpeg speed?
