Days 16 – 17: You Have to Keep it Seperated!
Ok so I haven’t updated in a few days. I have been really busy. Both with family and work. So let’s give a run down of what I have done under Linux for these two days. It may not seem like much but I can only do so much within my schedule. SO

Basically aside from some more installations, I have begun organizing things. Read on for the recap of the past couple of days!

Day 13 – Rip, Transcode, Warzone!
We last left off with ripping a DVD using dvd::rip. It really took it about an hour to rip it from the CD to my Hard drive. But it only rips the files into VOB format. In order to play on another machine or for me to burn the movie onto a DVD I need it to be encoded into an AVI file, so I transcoded the video within dvd::rip. After about 2 hours of doing that, I had a perfect 1.5GB AVI (it was a 2 1/2 hour movie so it was expected).
The issue I had with ripping movies in the past is the sound didn’t sync with the video. It was like watching an old Kung Fu movie but more annoying for the audio. You”d hear a bang and then see it 5 seconds later. Not good.
