Where did you buy from? Pricing standard across Sony and neighbourhood game shops?

I’ve been using Instant Handbrake for about a month with no problems, until recently. Sometimes the main title (with the actual movie on it) doesn’t appear as a choice. Any ideas?

Kind of misleading to show a screenshot of instant HandBrake beneath a link to the full Handbrake. Either remove all reference to instant handbrake or change the download link so that it actually downloads instant handbrake. Either way but some consistency would be nice.

[...] C) Per il caricamento delle foto basta posizionarle in una cartella del nostro pc e poi sincronizzarlo nelle preferenze di iTunes con quella cartella specifica. I video vanno prima convertiti in formato .mp4 o .mov. Per fare questo ci sono diversi software anche gratuiti che ci permettono di scegliere la qualità e le dimensioni del filmato. Per convertire i Dvd consiglio Instant Handbrake che è disponibile sia per gli utenti mac che windows. Per convertire invece i filmati (divx, avi, ecc…) gli utenti mac hanno a disposizione iSquint mentre gli utenti windows possono usare Videora per il quale è disponibile anche una guida. [...]

I must be the idiot from the idiot proof but after I convert the DVD to the H.264 for an iPod using Handbrake and try to import the file into iTunes I get an error that iTunes could not sync .

Hi,
I’m trying to encode Underworld Evolution for my ipod and it continues to stop about 2 minutes into it, and then says it’s done. Help anyone!

Hi,
I’m trying and trying to encode my copy of Underworld Evolution and it just isn’t working. It keeps stopping about 2 minutes in to it. Very frustrating. I’ve tried other copies and get the same results. Any tips?

In relation to the problem experienced by “dkb” and “MichaelH”…………..Check on Wikipedia for Handbrake (software)…..it says there that……….. “As of March 3rd, 2007; HandBrake’s programs are no longer able to convert movies to iPod format because of impending legal issues.”…………My guess is that if you downloaded handbrake after this date….you’re out of luck. I say this simply because i downloaded handbrake prior to this date and have ripped DVDs to iPod format after March 3rd, 2007. However, I was unsuccessful when i tried to rip “Casino Royale” last night. Maybe the new restriction has been put in place even on my version of handbrake which i downloaded 6 months ago.

I’m having the dame problem as MichaelH and dkb. I just tried to rip “Casino Royale” with Instant Handbrake and it would work fine for about 1 min then say done..but the resulting file was only about 23 seconds long. Could this be because the DVDs have very new DRM encrypting or some security software that Handbrake can’t crack. With Da vinci Code and Casino Royale, they are both very new so there may be new restricitons.

It looks great, but I am having the same problems with both Handbrake and the beta instant, same as MichaelH. HB runs as normal. Selects the right file, auto configures (or I do the settings myself in HB), it runs for a minute–though it says it will take about 5 hours–then says done with only a brief capture. Powerbook G4, 10.3.9. I also tried changing the file format, anything I could think of. Same thing, just a 30 second title capture. I’ll check back for comments.

After it converts my DVD for about 2 hours, it says “Done.” But there is no converted file. Not in Movies folder or anywhere else. Could it be done and I just can’t find the converted file? I’ve done this repeatedly and haven’t yet been able to get a completed file at the end.
