DVD's Under 4.7g after Stream Proccessing

[maggot]

last night i ripped 5 movies to my hard drive with STREAM PROCCESSING enabled keeping only the main video and the 5.1 audio 6 channel. 4 out of the 5 were able to fit onto a DVD-R without anything else. only Black Hawk Down had to run through REMPEG2 to shrink it down a tad. otherwise it took me under 45 minutes to rip them all and then all i had to do was pop them into SPRUCEUP for authoring. the 4 movies that were small enough after stream proccessing were LEGALLY BLONDE,VAN WILDER,CHANGING LANES,LISS THE GIRLS.
this was just an FYI to those who go through the trouble of recording via a capture card......sometimes it's better to go the ripping route.

also remeber

4.3 not 4.7 that is a whopping 400 meg difference, I dont think you will ever get a 4.7 size file on todays dvd-rs

I meant ABLE to fit on a 4.7....of course 4.3 and under worth of info......sorry I didn't make myself clearer on that

[vic102482]

Yah I hear you

I ve cought myself doing that plenty

about the capture cards did you see my post where you left your other post?

[maggot]

Nope...I didn't see it.....I'm not against capture cards at all......It's just that so far I've had luck when using stream processing and have saved alot of time.......the capture card I want is still a bit pricey for me.....so I'm going to go the rip/encode route for now

Hi Maggot,why go to the trouble with authoring etc if the disc will fit onto a 4.7 dvd-r?Decrypter will just lift the whole thing for you..

Because I make a new menu and the authoring programs creates new IFO's and stuff for it......I just rip with the M2v and AC3 files....so I need to run those through an authoring programs since I ripped out all the languages and subs to get it under 4.3
