Vote: VHS v DVD
Fame! I wanna live forever! And so do these video formats: VHS and DVD. But which will take its place on our hallowed Wall of Fame? Which will we pay tribute to like the king of gadgetry it is?
First up is VHS. The revolutionary format brought home video recording to the masses. It’s also the Gadget world’s toughest street fighter, beating BETA Max into a bloody pulp. So, can it do the same to the DVD?
Well, DVD spearheaded the digital revolution. Leading the way back in 1996 was Twister – the first DVD movie. Okay, that’s not a great champion for the format, but DVDs can store any and all files, from MP3s to video files. But is that enough to steal the limelight from VHS? Jason and Suzi put their cases forward…
But which format would you have seen go onto the Wall of Fame? Getting voting here…

Hello.Smart ripper ripped but cant use dvdshrink - OK so before I went and procured by DVD burner I was making a few DivX's but after a few issues I stopped processing them and just set about filling my 240Gb raid set with ripped movies. Now I want them to go to DVD-R instead. But when I follow the dvshrink guide and get to choosing these files it tells me "failed to open video file etc. VIDEO_TS.IFO of course it cant cos it doenst exist Smartripper didnt make them that name. So what the f*ck do I do now? I basically got a 'couple' of these movies that I'd like to 'backup' but its seems there is a syntax problem that I need to get over... I searched for smartripper and only found one thread relating to what I was doing but not this problem. Please help!! <a href=http://www.topvideoconverter.com/dvd-to-ipod-converter-mac/>mac dvd to ipod converter</a>
