I THINK IT FILLS ALL UR CRITERIA

Use DVD2SVCD. Best programm I ever used.

Excellent Quality. But depends on the Mpeg Encoder you use with that prog.

That´s the only thing that isn´t free at this Tool. You´ll have to buy(or find it somewhere else) an Mpeg encoder. Tmpeg or CCE.

DVD2SVCD is probably what your looking for.
Although it will take 12-24HRS to convert

yup, i heard a lot that dvd2svcd is the best. but we still have to get cce or tmpeg that is not free... or is there any place that we can download it for free?
i sure want to try it as soon as possible...
by the way from your experience, how much time will it take to rip the dvd? 12 hours is too long, i guess...
i heard someone can get it done faster than that.. please share your experience...

I´m new on dvd2svcd, too and it´s the best coverting-tool ever.
Used DVDx before. It´s OK for "quick" copies but hasn´t all the features included.
Of course cce is not for free but you can download a demo-version that adds the cce-logo into your movie (very ugly).
I prefer something called "buy software". ever heard these words? but maybe you will find a tiny little prog that will help you solving the logo problem. I heard of it
btw, on my computer it takes about 3-5 hrs to convert 1,5 to 2 hrs movies. think it depends on your processor, harddisk, dvd and so on. yust try it.

It depends on what encoder and settings you're using. Ive done quite many SVCD's for my kids, and as these movies are usually ~80 minutes, I can make a 2 CD copy using CBR 2500. Using CCE the video encoding stage takes ~ 90 minutes on a Thunderbird 1200, not too bad

I've never used dvd2svcd so I can't comment on it good or bad. But you can do everything without it and get the same results.

I use: smartripper>dvd2avi>tmpg>bbmepg>vcdez

I think saying one program is better then another is like saying that a hot blonde naked stripper is better then a hot brunette naked stripper. It all depends on what you yourself like.

I myself think TMPG is better then CCE. But saying that doesnt mean that it is better. Try a few for your self and see what you like better.

But if I have to vote my vote goes to TMPG

have you heard of Kazaa? Great place to get free stuff!!!! i suggest you look for supplimentary programs there. DVD2SVCD is great!!!!
