Which video encoder program to use???

[Clandestino]

Hi, I'm a little bit oxidated on this theme and I want to know which is the best encoder for video.

I need to encode some Vobs, I have tried xmpeg, dvd2avi, dr divx and flaskmpeg (this one a little bit only)

Since my favourite (dr divx) is a discontinued program, I want to know if there are another ones better that the ones I named... Or just which one do you use...

What are you trying to accomplish? DVD to AVI? or AVI to DVD ?

I exactly need an application able to give me control of everything to encode video from VOB (just in HDD no need from DVD) to AVI.

Thanks

dvx and gordianknot are those tools that come to my mind when conversions from dvd => avi will be made and user control is wanted

autogk for example will not offer decent user control imho

I didn't know DVX, i have look for screenshots and seems a good program, I will try it, thanks

DVX required .net but i considered it the better tool back in the days when i converted to avi

yes, i have tested it but it does not allow me to use divx 6.0... I want to use it... BTW is a nice program
