A time saving tip - if your converting recorded video/DVD etc to MP4 for your tablet don't waste your time. Download the free VLC app and play any video file on your tablet without the need to convert MP4.

Surely the point of encoding DVD video to MP4 is to reduce file space...?

Have you tried downloading video converter software and waiting LIVE time to convert to MP4 1hr video = 1hr MP4 VLC you don't waste time converting the file - if you get a 32gb SD card it will store enough films etc to watch on holiday - I said time wasting - not reducing file space.

Example: Hudl2 Video formats Supported: MPEG-4 Visual, H.264 (AVC), H.263, Xvid, VP8, VP9

- VLC on Hudl2 supports all video formats -
I archive the required recording from my VM TiVo Box to my DVD Recorder via scart. Then extract the required files 1 or 2 using drag & drop & rename to my SD Card for my Hudl2
