I've had great luck with HandBrake on a Mac, pretty good success on the PC, great success on Linux.

I like neodivx\nhttp://downloads.vnunet.com/download/divx/neodivx/_364.html\n\nYou can also use the xvid codec\nhttp://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&q=download+xvid\n\nEither way you'll lose a little quality because the DVD and VCD have different x,y sizes.

Divx isn't a decoder for DVDs, you need appropriate MPEG2 decoders to play DVD, you can download a Codec pack for your computer for free. I recommend K-Lite. Here's the link:\n\nhttp://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm\n\nVery easy to use, during the installation process, it asks you to choose which codecs i.e. encoders and decoders to install, if you don't know don't change anything, just click next till you're done. I'm 99% sure it'll work.\n\nG'Luck

you can use nero vision 2 its a great dvd video copier that will accept divx but remember you can edit iin configuration  and choose a qulity so any dvd can hold up to 5 hour or 1 hour but dont forgot to copy it on low speed

The DivX package (codecs,player,etc.) used to come with a converter, I thought. I don't know how it dealt with copyright protection and such and they probably charge for it now anyway.\nDVDDecrypter_3.5.4 & DVDShrink32 were freeware to rip and manipulate CP'ed DVD's but I'm not sure about the conversion to DivX anymore. Probably not much help but you can E-mail me if you can't find anything. I may be able to help you.\n\np.s.: also worth a look is Gordian Knot, GNU open source I believe. Try sourceforge.net. Or is it sourceforge.org? I dunno'\n\n  Buffalo, buffaloman687-roam@yahoo.com

The best transcoder made is the one by the DIVX people themselves.  www.divx.com\n\nTry their PRO package.  Still a cheap buy...

The best one that I know is DVD x Copy but is kind of expensive but if u don't mind expend an extra $50 is worth it...\n\nstay away from the freeware they usually come with extra bugs, and spyware   (u get what u pay for)

AVI or MPEG2. You don't specify what you want to do with the video once it is digitized.\n\nWith iether you can turn them into a dvd and spare them for prosperity but mpeg2 will be best, in my mind.\n\nThere is a lot of debate about what is best. It will also depend largely on what you want to do with the home movies and how many years you want it to last interms of format/codec support.\n\nWindows media VIdeo is a good option but it's a priority format so it might no longer be supported in 10 or 20 years.\n\nMpeg 2 has been around a long time and I beleive it will last long in terms of support as most of the newer optical based technologies still use it for video encoding. It however requires that your video be captured at a very high bitrate to preserve quality if you want it to be full frame PAL(25fps, 720x576) or NTSC(23.97, 720x480). It will take a lot of space so it's going to cost you in terms of storage media. Capturing to mpeg2 also requires less system resources so even an oldish pc or celeron could handle caputring at medium bitrates.\n\nAlternativly Divx is a high quality codec which can be used to encode video and preserve most of the quality while reducing the amount of disk space needed. Future support is likely.\nDivx and Xvid are very similar AVI codecs but Divx is slightly better in terms of quality but Xvid is open source so is could pottentially be supported for the next 50 years. It is not reccommended for capturing video unless you have a very high end system.\n\nI have captured and converted many VHS tapes for convertion to DVD and mpeg 2 is the format of video that has given me the best results. it is however slightly difficult to edit the video without good video editing tools.\n\nThis site is a grewat read if you are just starting out with video capturing.\nhttp://www.digitalfaq.com/dvdguides/capture/intro.htm
