DVD Ripping from DVCII

[acidcrash]

Hi, I'm a newbie and i can't seem to know how to rip dvd into vcd using the DVCII without the Moviestar (as the quality sucks) I've tried Smartripper, but i guess i can't use it without a DVD-ROM. Is it possible to rip DVD's directly from the DVCII using a standalone DVD player.

I have tried using Moviestar to capture into DVD format. It takes like 2hrs to convert it to vcd using TMPGenc for a 5 minute clip. I really wonder what's wrong with my setting. Please help.

I have yet to install dvII make sure your dvd player is macrovision disabled hope baldrick puts his capture-card section back up as there was some good info there regarding the DVII

we are on about the dazzle mpeg encoder here??? if we R sometimes it goes out of sync with the dazzle... anyway the macro is automatically knocked off when u send it through the card! the best idea is to rip using a dvd drive & use the dazzle to video tape up.

MY current setup is PIII 1.5Ghz with ASUS P4T, 256MB DDR and a GEFORCE2 32MB. How come it takes such a long time for me to reencode a MPEG2 file i have capture using Moviestar back into MPEG1 using TMGenc. I had the noise reduction filter on. But for a 5 minute file to be encoded for 2 hours, i think that's a little ridiculous right.

Upon searching around in this site, i thought i saw an 60min clip being encoded in something like 4 hours.
