DVD Ripper Wizard

How to improve the quality of DivX movies?

• Double click dvdripperwizard.exe file and follow the installation wizard instructions

• The resolution is also a factor of influencing quality. You can increase the resolution to get higher quality. Please note you must make the resolution keep 4:3 to get the correct aspect ratio, since the aspect ratio of the computer screen is 4:3. And because the resolution of source DVD movie is 720*480, Increasing the resolution too much will not improve the quality. The highest value recommended is 640*480. You can change the resolution in the settings window. Then press the OK button to save it.

• Launch DVD Ripper Wizard. Choose "Settings..." from the Options menu. And when the Setting window comes up, select DivX from "Compressor", a window as shown below:

• Then click the "Option" tab, a window will present all the parameters of DivX codec as shown below.

• The Encode Performance option affect the quality. You can choose a appropriate option to get higher quality. But higher quality and compression, lower speed. The Bitrate parameter is the key to determining quality. Higher value, higher quality but bigger file size. To hit a target file size you can use Bitrate Calculator to calculate the bitrate. Click the "Bitrate Calculator" button in the settings window of DVD Ripper Wizard, the calculator window will appear as shown below.

• Simply enter your target file size, the length of your DVD movie, and the audio bitrate. Then press the "Accept" button. The value of video bitrate will appear. Then you can open the configuration window of DivX codec and set the Bitrate parameter to this value.

When these steps finished, quit DVD Ripper Wizard. Then you can enjoy the DVD with much higher quality.
