Re: [iPhone] ripping dvd to play on iphone
said by eberglar  :About how much disk space would a two hour movie take up? Mine take about 500MB ... give or take. I use 2-pass VBR with a maximum bitrate of 1000Kbps. When I stream them across 3G from my home server they only use about 300-500Kbps of outbound bandwidth. |

| I've been using handbrake and just straight ripping them (no mactheripper first unless the disc errors..which is rare on a mac). For iPod they are around 1-1.5 GB per. Same with using the PS3 settiing. I haven't tried the universal.

I've played around with them and even 1000Kbps is probably a little too high for 480x320 video.
All my rips are from Blu-Ray and they are still only 500MB or so. |

If running Mac, you can use Toast to convert to Ipod format. |

I'm running it now. Is it supposed to take 5 hours plus to encode a movie? |

I've played around with them and even 1000Kbps is probably a little too high for 480x320 video. I prefer to keep the higher quality since I rip it once and it works on my TV, iPhone, and classic iPod. I only throw things on my iPhone when i plan on watching them otherwise I keep it cleaned off. |
