One could easily assume that they would play it all back the same but they don't. My recommendation is go with a % limit. You'll get much better consistency that way as it will compress all source at roughly the same rate. --- End quote --- That is kinda my thought. I just have to figure out a good compression amount. I am using xbmc to play them. Best program ever! Thanks for the help. J_K_M_A_N |

Keep in mind XBMC has built in upconversion... not sure yet if it applies to DivX but if you're connecting that to an HD capable TV that is worth considering. |

I always run XBMC in 1080i and make it use the best available resolution. Some things actually come pretty close to HD. Did you get it up and running yet? J_K_M_A_N |

Once I moved to 42" (plasma) and larger (85" 720p projector) I've not been happy with any compression on DVD's. I just rip removing special features and menus (main movie only) and playback using ZoomPlayer / Nvidia Purevideo codec + FFDshow on my HTPC with an Xseries radeon via component video output (at 720p). Looks good to me :cheers: |

Most reports say it ends up dropping frames and/or just bombing out on some stuff. |
