I agree.
Probably DIVX....
All that stuff is freeware on the net. Go to DIVX.com
It's the best video codec I've seen so far out there.
And it's always being improved. Microsoft originally had it, but now it's open source. I think some DVD players support the format, but not sure which ones. Anybody know?
DIVX is usually made by copying a DVD to your harddrive and compressing the video with DIVX encryption and the audio with MP3 encryption. The freeware programs automatically do all this stuff. The final product is a .avi file that can be played on your Windows Media Player that has the DIVX codec installed.
The software varies the encryption so you can fit it on a 700MB CD.
All my university friends have huge collections >1000 DIVX.... The quality is not bad to very good if done correctly.
One drawback though.. you need a huge harddrive, a DVD-Rom, cd burner and a >1GHZ processor if you want to encrypt a dvd in under a day !
