Video CDs or DVDs usually use formats that have large file size. In contrast, if the video is converted to Xvid format with same quality its size will be much lower on the disk.
I need a software that could convert a video CD or DVD to Xvid format.
I need it when I insert the video CD or DVD, read directly from the disk and convert it to the Xvid format and save it on my local drive.
The program must run on Ubuntu 14.04.
I did what i need using VLC media player. To install ** VLC media player** you may use your package manager (such as Synaptic) or may use following command:
sudo apt-get install vlc
After installing and running the program, in Media menu select Convert / Save item or press Ctrl+R.
In Open Media window select Disc tab. Select source device in Disc device section and click on Convert / Save.
Convert window will be opened. Under profile select output file format and specify a Destination file. Then click Start.
handbrake. It seems that it only can convert DVD videos, not CD videos. I am looking for a software that can convert both or another software for CD videos.
