Legolash2o Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 doesnt have to be OpenSrouce, but as long as its free, small and efficient Thanks for the links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHz Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 ConvertXtoDVD > ?????Try AVStoDVD (uses QuEnc & HCenc to encode) or DVD Flick (uses FFmpeg to encode) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phkninja Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 (edited) also ConvertxToDVD could be replaced withMediacoder (uses FFMpeg or Mencoder)has built in settings for converting to portable devices too Edited April 13, 2008 by phkninja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kz26 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 For the ConvertXtoDVD alternative, try DVD Flick. Not nearly as flexible, but it gets the job done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajua Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 ConvertXtoDVD -> StaxRip. This is a great media converter and encoder. DVDFlick is good at DVD only but its capable.iTunes -> J. River Media Jukebox (www.mediajukebox.com) is awesome and better at everything iTunes does! or for basic as SharePod use Floola which i found better.

Nick_White Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Don't limit yourself to ONLY open source. There are a lot of freeware apps that are better than open source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
