Is there any alternative to Handbrake on Mac ? This app is buggy (disappears if the movie is more than 2 hrs or so). I don't want to switch to Windowz. Just looking for an alternative.
Thanks !

I read that before posting. It does not help. I will try to be more clear. Handbrake converts VIDEO_TS to QT compatible mp4 format (which QT Pro can convert to iPod format) or directly to iPod format by changing various settings. In some cases Handbrake disappears during conversion. I am trying to find out if there are any alternatives to Handbrake.
Two possibilities come immediately to mind. One is Forty-TwoDVD-VXPlus ($$) and the other is MPEG Streamclip (free). Both require your DVDs be ripped/extracted first.
I use handbrake lite and it works very well. Quite idiot-proof as it is all preset for the iPod. Have converted dozens of dvds flawlessly. give it a try. Much less complicated than handbrake.
