Convert DVD to avi Divx with DVD decrypter and DVDx free

Free computer Tips

When I want to convert a DVD movie to AVI I like to use DVD decrypter and DVDx because they are both free programs and do a great job. Converting DVD movie files to Avi compresses the file into one neat little package, whereas there are up to 50 DVD files for one movie.

Why would you want to convert a DVD movie file to avi?

1. If you convert DVD files to avi it makes the movie easier to store as it is compressed. The quality is still good however the avi file size is 5 to 10 times smaller, depending on the settings.

2. I convert our home movies to avi and put about 7 DVD movies on one DVD disc. I am lucky because my home DVD player can read compressed movies. They are not as good as an original DVD but they are still clear, in sync, and easy to flick through.

Notes:

• Making an avi will also make the movie clip smaller to look at. If you want it bigger you will have to choose SVCD. SVCD will probably play in your DVD player.

• In the input settings there is a setting to choose pal or NTSC. If you are in the US you need NTSC.

• If you choose SVCD instead of avi it will take longer to convert DVD because it will be better quality.

• In DVDx if you are making a VCD choose 352x288 for PAL and 352x240 for NTSC,

• In DVDx if you are making a SVCD choose 480x576 for PAL and 480x480 for NTSC

• If you are making a WMV it will be 512x384
