Multicore DVD ripping software

[Obsoleet]

What do people use? I have dvdshrink (doesnt do divx) and Magic DVD Ripper. It rips a standard DVD in about 20 minutes, is there any application faster than this?

Tried ImToo DVD rip and the latest version has a bug that causes it to only use 1 core. I'm going to try the trial of ConvertXtoDVD now, I've found some good opinions on this one.

I also have DVDShrink and it rips a big DVD (8GB) in about 7 minutes. More than good enough for me.

Ripping DVDs themselves is not very processor intensive. More cores will not help. A faster DVD drive is about the only thing that will help.

DVD shrink should be fast because it's just a RIP, not a conversion.

I probably should not have used the word rip. I'm looking to rip dvds to divx in one fell swoop. DVDShrink is always going to be as fast as you could possibly go.

I'm using this drive http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827106292

Handbrake. If going for X.264, you might want to raise the thread count above your CPU count.

Lol rip= copy raw data off disc.
convert/transcode is what requires cores, ripping is just the drive speed read limited.
handbrake as said, for quality+cores
imtoo cr@p is second rate junk from the early days of ipod when people needed anything to convert sh*t, and lots of "suckers" customers were out there for the picking.
and yes h.264 is the way.

I want a RAID 0 array of Blu Ray players though. :hmm:
