Previously I had to use Nero to rip the DVD's (which often failed and took forever, as well as splitting the DVD into 7 files) and then convert them, which wasted even more time. Compared to free software, this one's a gem. It was easy to use and set up an output folder, however the user interface seemed a bit busy.
What I found most impressive about this software was it's ability to rip and convert video simultaneously, reducing time needed as well as simplifying everything.
I tried again on safe mod (in application option) and it successfully ripped the full DVD in just over an hour.
I tried to rip the DVD whilst working on my PC however the ripping crashed after 10 minutes. After registering (which was quick and easy) I prepared a DVD to rip (Spider-Man) to iPad. Upon opening the program I was greeted with a professional yet over complicated UI. The software installed perfectly the first time (XP Service pack 2). I think the price listed for it is reasonable and I'd recommend it to people. It looks great, the controls are easy to use (even if I don't know what they do), and it has options that could be useful later (like cropping or converting only segments of a DVD). Once I accepted my ignorance and the default settings, I found it's a pretty nice piece of software.
My only complaint is that it's not beginner friendly and doesn't try too hard to help. I don't know what that means, but there you are. I didn't change any settings between the two, but 300 took less time and was poorer quality. When I went enlarged the window, I could see pixels around things. "300" (widescreen) took about 30 minutes and watching it in a smaller window, it looks fine. Resizing the viewing screen didn't affect the quality. "Underworld" (fullscreen) took a little under an hour and converted well, standard DVD quality.
I converted two DVDs to MP4 (the default format) using the default settings. "better quality playback but takes longer to convert"). Something like Standard or High Quality with a brief description of what they mean (ex. My only recommendation is to have "quick convert" options, rather than only advanced or custom setup. Based on the instructions and the help page, people like me are meant to accept the default and go. I don't know what quality kbps is, or what audio sample means, and a few other things in the settings. I'm not a professional ripper and don't know much about video playback. Choosing a format is easy, but my immediate thought after seeing the settings was "I don't know what all this is."
* I didn't install the streaming stuff, I don't have those types of devices. * I'm not familiar with this type of software, so can't compare it to anything and had no expectations.
