DVD Software for free please

[Samantha Booth]

I am looking for some free software that will allow me to convert DVD to
DIVX. Is there any available out there? I have tried ImTOO but it only
allows 5 minutes of copying.

Thanks

Brilliant thanks for the info

To do it using free stuff I'd recomend

To copy and remove any copy protection (it'll make a DVD copy on your hard
disc) I use DVD Decrypter (http://www.dvddecrypter.org.uk/)

[I prefer DVD shrink but it is hard to find a copy, and normally only
available via P2P software - look here if interested
http://dvd-shrink.download11.com/ }

And then auto gordian knot from http://www.autogk.me.uk/ to convert to divx.

Before people shout it is probably legal in the UK to make a backup of your
DVD for your own personal use - but you decide what you want to do.

Hi further to this thread...

Can you remove the copy protection on VHS videos to make backup copies
of films to DVD ?
or do you have to buy s/ware/hardware to do this ???

I do not know if it is legal to do above ?
As I have a few video films (kids especially) for grandchildren

Cheers

Pete

If you're copying to a computer first, then not all SW is bothered
about macrovision. Bizzarely enough Windows Movie Maker is happy to
copy macrovision protected content to my HDD whereas other programmes
aren't.

Thank you all. Yes its for my pwn personnal use. I want to take the DVD's I
have already bought and store them on USB flash drives so I dont have boxes
full of DVD to take into hospital.
Thanks again for all the suggestions/
