Hi there guys.
pc_techie, I had a look at this site, downloaded the software and tried ripping and encoding with Gordian Knot. It did not go too well and I also did not like the fact that Gordian Knot was installing so many packages.
I then tried DVD-to-Divx, but this one click program did not let me really do any selections, crop the top and bottom black bars etc.
I then stumbled across /
http://www.dxl.netfirms.com/DVD_DivX_guide.htm
I followed this guide and using a program called Vidomi(encoding) and DVDdecrypter(ripping), I made my first divx without any hassles. Could not be easier.
You guys using FlaskMpeg and Gordian Knot, do yourself a favour and look at this guide and Vidomi in particular. This program rocks!
And you guys using DVD-to-Divx, this is much better and gives you more user input so that you decide how your divx will look.
Go on, give this a try. You won't be sorry.
