Ripping Friend

31 May 2003

Bought the latest issue of "2600" and am trying out some DVD-ripping. There's this cewl article that shows how to do it, using three freeware utilities. The article was a response to some company which had bundled these freeware apps, and was charging people for the distribution.


So my first rip/burn was a failure. I was doing "A Better Tomorrow", trying to get it onto a VCD. Something went wrong, though, and I deleted the whole thing.


My second attempt was "Rounders", but I left the subtitling on, and now I've got a 1200Mb MPEG with subtitles. Oh well....
