| What do you mean by 'without having big files' ? Are you low on hdd space and don't have enough to demux a dvd? Or you just want the end result video to fit on a CD? If the latter is the case your best choice is Mpeg4 (XviD). Guide here. /MLS

| not sure if making back-ups of lend dvd's is legal in your country..so beware (in some countries it is allowed for personal use) if you only watch the movies on your pc...you can make an avi (xvid or divx) of the movie. else use dvd2svcd, to make svcd's......(and avi's too) but the quality will be crap when you want 1 cd...svcd's better use 2 cd' to contain quality |
