Newbie In need of good encoder

[JackTheRipper]

I am new to dvd-ripping, obviously, use to rip lots of PS games. But slowly just quite. I am in need of a good/cheap(free is best) encoder to code divx/mpeg/avi to SVCD. Any thoughts?

i love this

Thanks for the quick reply, i always like fast responses(especially in a boring class )
Would this be all i need? And how can you make the vid higher res. if the source isnt as good?

Download and install the software (TMPGEnc). If you download one of the more recent versions (2.00 and higher), you'll discover that they include wizards/templates to help automate your efforts (and obviate your questions about increasing resolution, etc.). Or, you may choose to explore the extensive capabilities of the software for yourself - and discover the gratification of modifying various settings to enhance and improve your end product ;>}
