Xilisoft update-- final
Well, I lot of learning today.
I made a VOB to AVI and played it back in DivX without a
hitch and while online answering these things.
To the questions from Nero Info:
Firmware version is pretty much the latest for BenQ because I updated it after purchase and I've only had it a couple weeks:
Firmware B7V9
Config shows DMA on on the BenQ
ASPI is installed and working properly.
I noted that if this hour and 15 minute job ran it would take
over 6 hours to make the AVI. But I haven't got a prog in
freeware to do that anyways.
Hardware seems to be ok.
From other question above, Pitch Black Director's Cut was the
sample job that locked up my dvd burner/player. It is from the
rental store so --- well anything could have happened to a rental,
but it played ok in my Sony standalone player.
It was a good experience learning all this. And I don't think it's surreal in the least. :-)

Ok so we are sort of caught up.
Yeah there's something quirky that effects some processes
but not others. it's probably my ignorance or thisold
machine trying to do a state-of-the-art task.
BTW I have tried to use a public terminal where there is a
printer to make Afterdawn guides and printouts. But the forums in afterdawn are locked out at my public library. I can only guess that
someone is posting naughty stuff not on the library's approved list.

i'm not saying anything as she was obviously here sneakily pretending to be a PC newbie only to try to catch some of us out.
Not too bad for us catching on quite early on, between ourselves i mean; i did start to wonder on her first post (i think i even commented on that first post to her, that i thought she knew her stuff after all and not to put herself down! LMAO the irony of it)

I see you're having a productive day here. ;-)
Back on topic, the state of the project is that still
nothing with normal tools DVDDecrypter (actually that works
fine) and DVDShrink.
I have my set of files made by DVDDecrypter, I know where they
are and what I need to do is get them into a viewable format
yet.
the test with Xilisoft worked ok but is painfully slow...
a problem I may just have to live with until next build.
So how to do the functions of Xilisoft on the whole job?
I have a folder of files from DVDDecrypter that need to be
converted into AVI and burned to dvd.
The AVI files should be more compact than player-ready
format. I have another documentary series that someone
made for me: one set of three is on individual disks
in player-ready format and the last one has the avi
files all on one same sized dvd.
This current job should be easier.
So how to proceed with a program that can do the whole
conversion rather than a 5 minute sample?

@lon , sorry, the whole jane1 thing has been a bit strange, she's been on afterdawn pretending to be new to computers, and it was all an act.
I'm sure Rotary can get you moving again as i never heard of Xilisoft

rotary i was under the impression that lon's machine was under sourced .I still think it is but it has accomodated me with doing a simple conversion of a VOB to AVI.(it could of being anything but i chose xilosoft as the program, very similar to vso).nOW i want to see if lons machine will handle doing a re conversion with vso divx to dvd.
If it does then instead of using the programs he has , use recode or a reauthor to see if we at least can get it to disc.
394 meg of ram isnt DDR, but i am curious to see if its Edo or sdram that he is running and whether that is part of the overall prob.

unless he is running DDR or higher like most people then there are going to be conflicts with the programs that he uses and that he is limited to what programs he can use and what outcomes he can get

Sherman set the Wayback Machine to a couple days ago.
I want to get my VOB files of a documentary
to dvd. My DVD Shrink has produced kernel32
system errors.
I then tried that sample prog Xilisoft to make VOB to
avi files. Even the 5 minute sample was real slow.
I want to get the VOB file set into any viewable form,
but preferably viewable as a standard dvd.
I don't know why this one file set is producing
all the errors.
Does that bring everyone up to date on this?
