Thanks Milo (but stll amazed)
I have only tried 2 BRs so far and have a question for you below. I've
been using Ripbot264 which is fairly easy to use but when you compare
the size of my 22 minute 720x400 350 mb LP posts with Pitbull the mind
boggles. (And P3, I still love AutoGK for avis but it won't work on my
Wndows 7 pc)
Question: Region codes.
Do you have BRs from different regions or only one? I have both A & B.
My stand alone player will play both but my BR drive (Pioneer) has a
limited number of changes. There does not seem to be a simple program
like RegionFree used to be for DVDs. DVDFab worked for any region dvds
but will it work for different region BRs?
I am sure I will think of more to ask you later.
Regards,
John
