dvd2one how does it work?

[mboynton]

ok i am impressed. I usually use dvdxcopy to make a backup but for some reason while trying to make a back up of Rose Red it would not work. I got my hands on dvd2one and although it only copies the movie i was very very impressed with the speed. The first disk is about 3 hours worth of movie or about 8gb and if i would have reencoded with rempeg on my computer it would have taken about 10 hours, but dvd2onedid it in about 35 minutes. WOW! Does any one have a good idea on how they managed that? How does the quality stack up to some of the better encoders out there like tmpgenc or rempeg? Any other positive or negative feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

Dvd2one "transcodes" rather than "encodes", that's why it's so fast. dvd2one is certainly better than rempeg. i tried it once with the scorpion king and the image was full of blocks.
as for tmpgenc, with the right settings it would give better qaulity than dvd2one, but thats because it encodes.

You should also try DVD95 Copy it keeps the menu and extras. I just did a 6.2GB movie and it took only 47 minutes plus the picture quality in outstanding IMO. You can get a demo here http://www.dvd95copy.com/

lemme guess....joe blow downloads demo and says 1.1 sucks...then authority says don't judge dvd95copy by demo....lol. Best thing though is try the 10-day money back thing..that's what I did/am doing.
