Thanks. I finally got it to work and was able to rip two of my favorite DVD's although it took a long time.

There's no included software to do it. The best way is the probably use SUPER, a collection of open-source and freely available tools to guide you through the process, then use Windows Media Player or the Creative software to send the ripped videos to your Zen.

I've had better luck with Fair Use than with iriverter. Might be because I'm converting TV shows, which have more than one episode on a DVD. iriverter would only recognize one (random) episode per DVD, while Fair Use recognizes all of them. I also found that, although the default converted file size using Fair Use is 700 MB, I can reduce that to 300-400 mb without noticeable loss of quality. Thanks to all the people who posted with info on DVD conversion!

http://iriverter.sourceforge.net/This is a free program, which is fairly simple. If you have trouble using the software, post a reply and I should be able to explain it.

Excellent review. My questions are: 1. After you made your 17 Gb movie did you burn it into iDVD? If so, how did you fit that size movie into a 4.7 GB DVD?ThanksSony DCR-SR100 novice mac user (G5 imac)

I use dvdshrink to rip my dvds. I purchased a codec pack for the Archos 5 on Ebay for about $30; that included all of the available plugins, not just the cinema plug in. (Archos wants $20 for each separate plug in.) With the cinema plug in, you don't need to convert your dvd files in order to watch them on the Archos 5; just drag the ripped contents to your Archos device and then enjoy watching. I really recommend paying the money for the plug ins. Having to convert every video you want to watch on your Archos would be a hassle, in my opinion.

Hi Andrew, I am new at these gadgets. How do you transfer DVDs on Vision W or Archos 604? My interest is simply to watch DVDs and listen to music on long flights; I do not need any recordings. Also, can I use Bose quiet comfort headset with these systems? Will greatly appreciate your response. Thanks. Dinesh.

Thanks Victor for the info. i am trying to burn the 1080p content onto DVD-R to see if PS3 can play. It turns out it does see the files and plays them but the audio is choppy. i tried cooying the file directly onto the PS3 Harddrive, even then the audio is choppy...the video is playing well though. any thoughts on how to make the audio better ?

Folders are nice but take some time a get a 32Gb or 64 Gb card for the Zen. Then you can build folders if you want too or you can just place your music in position that you want. The Zen is a tremendous entertainment tool and will bring many hours of pleasure. Above all, do not limit yourself to possibilities. Happy Listening. Gramps.

After reading over that page, I found that this does not support DVD menus. Hopefully this functionality will be added sooner rather than later.How difficult is it to switch between two video output sources if you are unable to see the menus?

JV - Thanks a lot! I could not figure out why my dvds wouldn't play on other dvd players. There is nothing to clue you in that you need to finalize them.

So t17, do you have any advice about how to reasonably & inexpensively get digital videos made on a Flip onto DVD's? LUV LUV LUV the convenience of the Flip, but I was suprised that I can't just burn my videos to a DVD.Called Ritz Camera (at Flip's suggestion since they are 'authorized to create DVD's from the Flip'), and was shocked that I would need to give them the Flip for 10 days plus $29 for the first DVD and $15 for each subsequent copy. Yikes!! So to give my family (some of whom are elderly and don't have web access) 7 DVD copies of the cool little 18 minute movie I edited together from our July 4th party, I would have to spend $120! There's got to be a better way. Any suggestions? So t17, do you have any advice about how to reasonably & inexpensively get digital videos made on a Flip onto DVD's?

I thought that if you burn to a RAM disc after editing you can't finalize? My panasonic machine let me edit out commercials on RAM discs but then I couldn't use the disc in another player. So if you use those discs with this player can you play them in another DVD player?

I thought the Transcent SD card is to transfer to your Zen and not from your Zen to the card. Am I wrong?

It has been quite some time since I transferred my movies. I am not sure at this point exactly how I hooked it up to my dvd recorder. The best I can say is that your camera as well as mine has several hookup connections. You may be able to hook your camera directly to your recording device. The best advice I could give you is to either experiment with various cable connections or go to an audio video dealer with your camera and seek their advice directly.

Thank you for responding, Mark! I just downloaded SD Copy, but now I'm not sure what to do with it or how to use it. Any assistance is appreciated!JacquelineJacqueline

I don't know guys, I still haven't figured it out. Reading thru other posts here is making me think I'm going to return this thing. I really thought I'd like it, but if I can't string together my video clips to burn to DVD, WHAT is the point? It doesn't seem you can ask this question at the Vado official site either w/out first entering all the numbers off the box it came in. What a pain, I don't carry the box around w/ me. They also do not have an 800# that I can find on the site to call. Frustrating! I wonder how many customers they are losing?

Thank you.Basically, the problem I got is the pause between the clips when I write them to a DVD. So, I joined them (and the pause problom is solved) and tried to fit it to a 4.7 GB (which apparently holds 4.38GB data). And if the total size is less than 4.38GB, I could write the DVD. Else, I had to separate the single cip (which I joined before) and remove some of the clips and see how many are getting fit in 4.38GB. I think I could write it. Of course, I have to write a second DVD for rest of the clips. Thank you

Thanks. Do you know where I can find information about how to save the DVD to the HD?
