    DVD to mp4 or .avi

    Been using FF for a few weeks and am satisfied with it. Am having one problem....getting it to rip directly from DVD. And, that said, has anyone been using "Handbrake", I, also, cannot get it to rip/convert directly from DVD. One last bit, I've torrented some TV shows that were MKV and those...

    DVD to mp4 or .avi

    EVERYONE: Found out new, free version of AVC does, indeed, prohibit DVD rip and will only transfer roughly 3-5 minutes of a video file. Alas, all good things must come to an end:cry:OK, with AVC I did find a "workaround"; when you download it, do not check "search for updates", this is where I...

    DVD to mp4 or .avi

    OK, deleted/re-installed AVC (Free). Got it load DVD...sorry to say, it only converted 4 mins. of each episode I loaded(???) Don't know yet, but AVC may have put limitations on their "free" software. Checking into that. DAPUNISHER might be correct in saying you must buy AVC "PRO' or 'Ultimate"...

    DVD to mp4 or .avi

    I'm certain I've used "Any video Converter" previously to rip DVD's to desired format. However now, I cannot load the DVD. Every time program replies "No usable CD drive found". Always before, the program loaded/opened the DVD and showed the videos on the DVD. Can anyone tell me what has changed...

    Thinking about a Plum Gator 5 w/ this CPU. Tried looking around for reviews, but wasn't satisfied what little I found. Anyone able to tell me the quality of this CPU? I mean like poor, OK, good, better...etc??? Rick

    WIN 8 doesn't recognize second, third...etc. partitions

    Someone referred me to this ...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2?action=show&redirect=GRUB2 VirtualLarry... could this be what your referring to? This sounds logical, but I need to read it through a few more times, be sure I fully understand prior to implementing.

    WIN 8 doesn't recognize second, third...etc. partitions

    RE: crashtech OK... NP and I apologize for omitting some of that pertinent info. Tried the smaller pendrive...MAJOR problems w/ it. Maybe(?) because it was 2.0...but I recall running LM 17.2, long ago, off a 2.0 and it worked well. (???) So, what's to be said there....IDK??? RE: VirtualLarry...

    WIN 8 doesn't recognize second, third...etc. partitions

    RE: crashtech Your response led me to the realization of glaring omissions in my initial thread. Let's back up and start from the beginning. To start: I intend to install (not live) LinuxMint 19.1XFCE onto the second partition of a 256Gb 3.0 pendrive. Reason for the second partition; - 1st...

    WIN 8 doesn't recognize second, third...etc. partitions

    Afternoon VirtualLarry: It's no longer possible for me to show you(screenshot) the pendrive's structure. I literally gave up and deleted that partition. Such, I cannot answer what bootlloader it was using. The problem persisted to such an extent that I just couldn't get it to boot...even...

    WIN 8 doesn't recognize second, third...etc. partitions

    I "installed" (not live) a Linux O.S. to the second partition of a pendrive. I've since found out WINdows does not recognize second or third partitions on a pendrive. By now, is there some way to work-around this obvious failure of WINdows? The second partition did not have a partition...

    2nd partition wont boot/ no drive letter

    I've install (not live) LM 19.1X onto the second partition of a pendrive. It won't boot and the partition does not have a drive letter designation (in MSWin something like D, E, F ect. in GParted, sdb2/sdc2) When I go to either Win disk mgmt or GParted, the line where I need to tik to add/change...

    Extreme fluctuation of "write" speed

    I have a Sandisk 3.0 256gb pendrive that has been getting weird on me. When writing to the drive, it will start out at approx. 28-32 mb/s, then almost immediately drop to 20-22 mb/s and will stay at that rate for a bit. Then suddenly it will drop to 5, then 4, etc. down to 350 kb/s(sometimes...

    "Medieval" .cue splitting

    RE: lxskllr Appreciate your response and my apology for not responding sooner. I can access either Linux or (slap my mouth) Micros*%t. OK, w/ Linux, seems I can do what Medieval does. The "problem" with Medieval is getting the correct .cue file and or, getting the .cue file to execute...
