OK all my encoding times are inline with all others here. Well I got the ratDVD file burned to DVD+R and it is very impressive to say the least. Used it on 2 different standalone players with no problem. A momitsu V880N and also a Pioneer 440. I can say that on my SD television that there is no way to tell the difference between this and the original. However on my HD setup in the basement I can tell there is artifacting when I look close at the plasma screen say from 4 feet away. But the sound is awesome and this ratDVD is so easy to use. If we consider how much this data has gone thru, to go from DVD ~8.4 gig to 1.6 back to 4.2 for SL archiving for a buck and looks and sounds this good, we have to be impressed.

I love this software I think it is great. What a job these guys did. I think that with this concept and BitTorrent, the MPAA has a real problem on their hands. I would suggest dropping region coding and delayed releases....soon.
