How do I get the best quality DVD rip?
I need to rip some video from a DVD (my own work, no copyright issue) and everythign I try makes a noticably inferior quality video image. I have used Handbrake and a few different commericial utilities. I am looking to acheive a file size which is similar to the file on the DVD, which is about 1 GB. I tried one utility which converted to Apple Pro Res .mov, but it made the file a massive 8 GB, but the image looked significantly worse! Can't understand that. I know the image is compressed on a DVD, but what is the best way to get it off and looking no less quality than it did on the DVD. I eventually want to edit that file in Final Cut Pro X to make a showreel.
Thanks
