DVD9 to DVD5 is it possible with W98?

[wangofree]

I've tried unsuccessfully for a month now to rip & reencode a 2' 15" dvd using dvd dycrypter, smartripper (doesn't work on w98) ifoedit, dvd2avi, rempeg2, bitrate calculators, tempgenc, vobedit, spruceup 1106, vfapi, and on...

I just can't make it come together....my question...can you really convert a dvd9 to a dvd5 using windows 98?

If so, which software allows you to achieve this marvellous goal?

I've tried a number of guides and just can't get it together...

I have been humbled to the extreme.

I thank anyone with insight.

the genral rule is that you need to have window 2000 or Xp with ntfs system running ,however I read a post the otherday that said it can be done as the files are genrally limited to under 4 GB so there wont be a conflict,even your m2v file is genrally under 4Gb when finished transcoding , I dont use W98 I use XP with NTFS structure, do a search to see if you come up with any thing :cool:

this isn't the perfect solution, but one that could get you by on win98

try this new prog dvd2one

it just deals with the vob files - so you can use dvd decrypter in file mode
