    If you are going to be watching lot, get yourself something like this where you can just stick a USB stick in - saves yourself 5 mins each time you want to watch [STRIKE]Lost[/STRIKE] I mean, a legal torrent.

    popcorn hour is a fantastic bit of kit; no need for converting with that.

    However, programs i use to convert my files is:

    Main ones:

    GSpot
    Tmpgenc 2.5
    Tmpgenc DVD Author

    sometimes needed:

    virtual dub
    besliced

    Using these programs i can build my own dvd, add my own background, menus and have the layout how i want.

    Yes, convert is easy to use, but doing it my way i can:

    1. keep ac3
    2. put between 1 - 8 movies onto a single layer dvd with animated selection dvd menu.
    3. Never had a coaster burn
    4. It's the only way i can 99% guarantee the final dvd will play on anybody's DVD player.

    And a few other little things.
