This must be a bit dumb question, but bare with me..
This is newbie talking. :)
I am about to rip/burn a disc, that has 2 movies
(double feature). The whole disc is 6,3 GB, so it´s
safe to say, that both movies are under 4,3 GB (so no
compression needed when burning one movie from
the disc). There are no extras or subtitles, nor 5.1/
DTS-tracks.
I used MTR to rip the disc, and then went to the
DVD2oneX.
This "Compression Ratio" got me confused. It says
(from the "help"):
____
"The Ratio popup-button allows you to select
between 'Variable', 'Constant' and 'Selective'.
**Variable Ratio:
When selecting 'Variable' the 'old' engine is used for
processing the movie. This will result in a movie
quality know from recent versions of DVD2oneX
v1.2.0.
**Constant Ratio:
Selecting 'Constant' will enable the 'new' engine for
processing the movie. This will result in a much better
movie quality than known from recent versions of
DVD2oneX v1.2.0. This mode is especially for
processing long movies.
**Selective Ratio:
Selecting 'Selective' will enable the 'new' selective
ratio for processing the movie and will enable the
level popup button at the right side.
This new engine is a different way of approaching the
video data! Selectable in three pre-defined levels,
this new engine determines the balance in distincting
the important screen parts from the less important
ones.
Things that are not in focus in the current frame, like
backgrounds, are low in detail or as we define it, of
low importance to the screen and can be approached
differently than the important ones.
With this new compression method, setting the popup
button to low will lead into a scheme where the
important parts of the screen are a bit more
compressed than the less important ones.
Compressing of low important parts can result into
macroblock because the original encoder in a good
encoder setup already achieved the best possible
compression without loss of detail.
In medium the important parts are even more
compressed than the non important parts, and in high
the compression is almost done only on the important
parts."

So what shall I do, since I don´t want compression AT
ALL?
Am I using wrong software for this (when I don´t want
any compression, but I still have to rip the disc, to get
rid of the other movie).
Thanks to you all.
edit: Ok. I guess I have to use "Title Only Extraction"
from MTR, since I can quite clearly see from the
timecode which film is which..
