Re: Anybody convert their DVD to watch on TP2. How?

For converting DVDs to file for TP2:
1. I would use DVDDecrypter to rip movie from DVD to PC Hard Drive. Do this as one single file (ISO).
2. My favorite video converter software is called 'SUPER'. It can convert just about any file format to any other file format. In this case I would convert it to divx or xvid, I find these have the best compressions. MP4 is okay, but I find the files to be larger than xvid.
- Settings for TP2: resolution close to 800x480, 30 fps.

As a side note, I have done a lot of video downloading, DVD ripping, video converting and movie watching, including on smartphones. This is a streamlined process for watching movies on our TP2s:
1. Download movie torrent directly to smartphone. There is a Windows mobile torrent application. (Let's see the iPhone do that.)
2. Watch the movie on Core Player. The movies are typically divx or xvid and are 700-800 MB. It doesn't get any easier than that.
