Best file converter recommendations?

Hey there,
Does anyone out there actually know a decent program for ripping DVD movies over to DivX? Any recommendations would be appreciated. thanks.

You’ve got thisLink. The catch is, it actually costs money.

Here is my recommendation 😉It's an excellent choice, especially since it offers the functionality to hardcode subtitles directly into the movie file😁

Free Format Factory.

If you're looking for the most reliable and straightforward way to convert a DVD into DivX, I honestly can't recommend Auto Gordian Knot enough.
I haven't had much luck with things like Factory or even basic video converters; I really doubt they can pull off the same level of quality.
The great thing about Auto GK is that it lets you specify the exact size of the final file. For instance, if you want your DivX files to be about a third of the original DVD size, you can set it that way. That way, if you're converting all three parts of a movie like *The Godfather*, you can make sure all three pieces fit perfectly onto a single DVD in DivX format.
You can find more details on how to handle this right here (check out this tutorial): How to rip a DVD

I'm in complete agreement with the previous post...

Forget about Format Factory—honestly, I doubt any other video converter can even touch it.
The thing with Gordian Knot is you can actually pick the final file size. So, say you want the DivX version to be about a third of the original DVD size... if you do that for all three parts of *The Godfather*, you could probably fit the whole trilogy onto one single DVD in DivX format.

Look, Format Factory is basically built for beginners—it’s about as simple as it gets, so anyone can mess around with their movie files in whatever format they feel like. I use it myself, and after dealing with a bunch of software that promises the world but delivers absolute garbage results, I guess I can say F.F. actually does what it claims to do.

Does anyone know how to convert .imx files from MindManager into something I can actually open without the software, or at least something I can print?

I tried using Contenta converter, but it's a bust.

There's nothing mentioned about this specific format on the Format Factory site either.

I’ve cycled through just about everything out there, and honestly? The absolute standout for me was Handbrake.
It’s surprisingly light on my system, barely touching 30% CPU usage. Meanwhile, those supposedly "professional" paid suites—you know the ones—completely redline my processor to 100% for no reason. And I'm running an i5-2500k, so it isn't exactly a potato.

To make matters worse, most of those overpriced tools actually produce a lower quality conversion when you're moving from DVD to Xvid or MP4. Why is that?

Greetings, everyone.

Does anyone know which software I should use to convert a series episode into a 350 MB AVI file? I am trying to replicate that specific look from those old Xvid torrents. I have already tried various tools like Adobe and Handbrake, but the quality just isn't there. Why does my footage end up so blurry during fast-paced scenes compared to the high-quality encodes found online? I am aiming for something similar to the specs below—roughly 1100 kbps, totaling about 350 MB in AVI format, but without that terrible motion blur. Can anyone assist me with this?

[Format]: AVI
[Duration]: 43mn 53s
[Resolution]: 624 x 352 pixels
[Display aspect ratio]: 16:9
[Frame rate]: 23.976 fps

One decent option was Format Factory, give it a shot and see if it works for you.
