What's the fastest way to rip a DVD to AVI? I searched... didnt find anything fast.

Learn to frameserve. You'll thank me when you don't have to go out and buy another hard drive just to store the huge avi's that ripping can produce. -
FIll us in on this frameserve stuff. I end up just ripping the movie vobs off the darn disks using copy+paste and taking an hour or two to do so is getting rediculous then another 2 hours in compressing the vobs using DVD2one 1.3 to fit on a 4.7GB DVD-R disk but at least it stays in great quality while keeping full ac3 suround.Originally posted by jollyperv

At first I used to run super DVD ripper, that takes roughly 2.5 hours doing the same darn thing as copy+paste except it converts evrything to svcd on top of that effectvioely adding more time and strain on my drives. Total process. 5 fucking hours! That's not inclluding the process of rebuilding the menus for the video disk and losing my suround sound as well.
Such a lengthy rip cannot be good for the darn DVD drive. I'm tempted to pick up a basic 12x DVD-rom drive so I can run it into meltdown and not my new DVD+/-rw /ram burnerComment

Yes, but it's slow as mollases. I'm able to make exact replica's of DVD's the hard way faster than that and that's really sad LOLOriginally posted by Zappu

It's not as easy as just telling you how to do it. You're gonna have to do some google searches and check out digital-digest.com, and also doom9.org. There are detailed tutorials on how to do everything.
Frameserving is not much of a time saver...it is a step and space saver....Although, it does save time too. Also, don't waste your money on any dvd ripper programs...Frameserving dvds can be done completely with free software.Comment

What you packin for cpu and ram? Seems like it's dropping frames from system lag maybe?
EDIT: no offence but Flask has been nothing but headaches for me every time I've used it.Comment

If it was ripped to raw, uncompressed avi, and you are playing a 2 gig (size limit) file, then there's really nothing to worry about. Playing a file that large tends to make things pretty choppy. Try opening it in virtualdub and seeking through the file to make sure no frames were lost.Originally posted by Ganjasaurus

Or it could be something completely different.Comment

Actualy that makes alot of sense. Ironicaly if he burned the file to a DVD-Ram disk formatted properly it would play better than it would directly from the hard drive. Video files just read in more manageable chunks on a proper dvd-ram. I've actualy tested that theory. I read a bit about why large avi's do this but It never really sunk in. Something about when loaded from the system it has to load massive chunks at once but from the ram disk it plays it as it gets it???? dunnoComment

gesus, ok, hardware is not the problem. Got funky shit eating resources in background? Personaly I'd say it's that damn flask fucking up.
Try this, grab the VOB's direct from the disk then run it through super dvd ripper. That app runs slow on my xp2100 but on your box it may just fly like madComment
