At this moment in time im using DVDFab for ripping my DVD collection to my HDD but the quality isn't that of the actual DVD. Can anybody suggest how I can rip the rest of my DVD's at a better quality?
thats not really enough information do you rip it to Vob or what? if you rip to vob hte quality is exactly the same then you can use handbrake to shrink
You could just use dvd shrink with compression turned off! Also set dvdfab to dvd9, are u keeping menus or just chopping out the main feature?
why would you rip to AVI then convert using handbrake ??? just rip to HDD using DVD fab on DVD9 setting then using handbrake to adjust to whatever quality you want
Im ripping to .avi butthe quality is too low for me im only using hand break to convert them for my iPhone.
I prefer H264 over AVI these days. Means I get hardware decoding on a my iPad 2. For ripping I just use Handbreak. I use H264, constant quality RF of 20, and keep the original AC3/DTS audio for compatibility with my THX audio system. (I use different settings for the iOS devices) Some say to drop the RF down to 18 or so for quality. Try it and see if you notice a difference.
Ok now i also need a DVD ripping software as i cant get handbreak to rip and DVDFab has run out now. Any suggestions?
Use MakeMKV to rip file and then use Handbrake. I can get quality just as good as dvd but with reduced file size.
I use DVDFab to rip the DVDs/Blu Rays and DIVX Plus Converter to to change to DIVX for the PS3, and I'm doing rips within DVDFab fpr iTunes although Quicktime Pro does a good job.
