I just got Dvdxcopy, after reading the newbie section for this site, it does say this is a good program for going from dvd to vcd on cdr's....
When I start dvdx, it has a breif tutorial, and says it will take two DVD RWs to copy.... I am guessing it creates a file on my hd then I must do something else to convert to vcd.... So I read the Convert page. No mention of Dvdx copy... Can this program do all this stuff or do i need something else...

you bought that crap.

ghoster, to each his own. DVDXCopy works great for newbies who don't know how to manually rip a DVD, like we do.

I wonder if he saw dvdx and mistook it for that dvdxcopy pile.
As Churchill famously predicted when Chamberlain returned from Munich proclaiming peace in his time: "You were given the choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor, and you will have war." -
Mirror_Image... Thats what I'm thinking. Maybe he doesn't realize that DVDx and DVDx Copy are 2 different programs.

Dvdxcopy only does one thing - copies a DVD to a DVD-R or DVD+R. No VCD, SVCD, etc. If the movie (like most) is too big for one blank, it will split it so it will fit onto 2 blanks.
The COOL thing is, it's very simple and easy. I've tried a couple, and it works great. One click, swap the media when it says to, and click again. Takes an hour altogether. ALSO, it doesn't re-encode anything, so you have the SAME picture quality as the original.
The bad stuff - it puts its own little disclaimer that you have to watch for 10 seconds in addition to the FBI thing and anything else stuck on the front of the movie. And it IS a pain to have 2 discs for every movie. If the movie WILL fit on one blank, it's a useless prog, because you can do the same thing with DVDDecrypter for free and without that annoying intro screen.
For what it is, it works well. But then, DVDSplit does the same thing for a quarter of the price. I'm waiting for the prog that will automatically re-encode all the VOBs (after figuring out the best bitrate) so everything fits on one disk, features and all. -
From what I understand this is going to be called DVDXCOPY "Platinum Edition" or some such name.
Considering the cost of an encoder, there really are only a few they can use, it's not going to be a $99 program.
The question will come down to how much for, tmpeg or main concept or cce or neros encoder.Jim -
