So I am looking at building my media server and have tried a few different products. I have loved the clonedvd/anydvd setup for burning to a dvd. Howver, for my media server I was hoping to get it down to about 2 to 2.5 gigs and still maintain good quality. I have gone through all the afterdawn, doom9, and digest stuff and just don't want to have to use 5-6 different programs. Any recommendations on a do it all software that will get the compression that I need. Looking at either divx of xvid most likely.
Are you just wanting to rip a DVD and make a smaller movie file out of it? If so and you are on a Mac you can use MacTheRipper for copying the DVD to your hard drive and then Handbrake to compress them into h.264 movies for QuickTime and AppleTV, iPod, etc.
