[QUOTE="yogiman_uk, post: 99220, member: 22611"] Hey Quiller, At last someone who actually understands what I am trying to do! (no offence guys :) ) Your correct I want to compress the films to a resonable size without having to spend hours for each film. It seems rather stupid to me that there is not a hardware card available to speed the whole process up! Currently I have 5 hard disks giving me about 1.4 terrabytes! which is a huge amount of space but with the movies I already have my only option is to compress them down. The problem is that DivX makes a right hash of them all that pixeling when you get fast moving objects is rediculous I mean do they really expect me to watch a movie like that! Sorry but I would rather put each disc in the computer when I wanted to watch it. I just find it really difficult to belive that you can't just squash down a DVD to a resonable size and still have it a good quality. I also find it hard to believe that someone has not marketed a hardware card to do this! There must be loads of us out there who want to store our movies in this way! Anyway, Thanks for all your replies! I really do appreciate the responce and the advice :) Merry Christmas All Yogiman! [/QUOTE]
