How do I copy a dvd and make it available on emule?

I notice that people use the codec XviD and have two CD's. Why two CD's? I assume that the original DVD is being shrunk because 4 gb is a lot? Can I do this with Nero? Thanks.

Is this a commercial dvd or is it something thing you filmed and had it put on dvd?

Remember the rules

Do NOT give, link, ask, or advocate WAREZ. "emule"
Warez includes downloaded copyrighted movies and TV-series/shows and copying rented movies

You are talking about original DVDs that you own all the rights to, and not commercial DVDs.

The simplest conversion tools are AutoGK and avi.NET. As these are your original discs, copy protection is not an issue, so you can just copy the video_ts folder to your HDD. From there you can use AutoGK or avi>net to compress your files using Xvid to 1,2 or more CDs, or a size based on % of a DVD.

Would I use Nero to do it ? Not if I want to get a good outcome.

Thanks for the quick answer. I'm curious why CD's come into it. Is it because people dont have DVD burners?

This is probably a tradition that began when DVD burners were very expensive, and people wanted to copy movies to CDRs.
(This site was called VCDhelp.com not that long ago. )
Software was optimised for 700 MB rips and multiples of that seem still the most common way to backup DVDs even these days when DVD burners and drives are hardly more expensive than CDRs.

This isn't DVD to DVDR. Moving to DVD to AVI, MP4, WMV, S/VCD.

A lot of people still choose to put their downloads on CDR.
