DVD2one/SW98-RealPC/Classic/Dual-1.25=WORKs

Yep,
It's a sad day. I'm using an old Winders emulator on my brand new PM in classic mode. Granted, SoftWinders 98 and Real PC don't like classic, I'm having weird screen redraw problems...But it WORKS. In 90 minutes, for a 2 hr movie. Time is money. 42 would have taken 9 hrs for this movie, and yes I DONATED to the cause. I guess I shouldn't complain about 42 taking 9 hrs compared to some of the times I've seen on this board. 90 minutes using a '99 era emulator in classic. I couldn't resist

No, it doesn't work in Virtual PC 5.02, errors out at startup, so I decided to try the old emulators that were still on my old PowerBook. It worked without a hitch. So I transferred the Emulators to my new FW 800 PM, it works well enough to use. I PAID the $44 for the program, it can't be classified as warez according to what I've read on this board I then tried transferring the Registered program to VPC, it still errors out at startup. This appears to be a problem with VPC, not the program. The only problem I encountered was the 2GB drive limit on these old emulators. As it turned out, it's not a problem at all. DVD2one will complain about not having enough disk space, I told it to continue anyway as the networked drive had plenty of space. It completed the 4GB project without a hitch.

Yes, I would prefer to use a Mac program for this. The people at work call me Captain Macintosh because I'm always preachin' the Mac. 90 minutes verses 9 hours...No one can resist this...No normal person anyway. Oh, I still use 0SEx for those small movies, save as image, toss into Toast, Burn...can't get any easier than that. But then I got to Spider-Man, I spent 5 hours with ffmpegX and Sizzle, it was out of sync. That's when I decided to try DVD2one, seems to work as advertised.

I still very much want Kai & Company to succeed and release a program as fast as DVD2one, when they do...I'LL DONATE AGAIN! Hopefully others will as well.

The error problem is with DVD2One, not Virtual PC. This has been dealt with, but not by the developers.
