Hey guys,

I am new here...I have an idea of what I want to do.

#1 I have some home movies on dvd (non-encrypted) that I want to convert to Divx/Xvid. Essentially say 1 gig for every 2 hours of footage. So, what is a good software utility for that.

#2 I want to store the Divx/Xvid files on a portable harddrive...Then, I was wonderring if there is a piece of hardware (Divx/Xvid player) that has a USB connection that can detect a portable harddrive and you can play certain Divx/Xvid files via a menu system on a television.

So for question #2...Does a Divx/Xvid player like that exist?

The answer is yes and yes. You can use AutoGK to convert your DVDs to DivX

As for players with USB,yes, are available;just google Divx DVD players and see which ones have USB.

some things to consider:
