Xlobby and Divx

Postby Scarpad on Tue Mar 09, 2004 1:26 pm

I've been ripping quite a few disks getting ready to set up my TV Show Server. But even with 500 GB of space that is going mighty fast so I'm in Rethink mode. I've been reading I can get pretty good quality using Xvid with Gordian Knot to rip to Divx. I believe I should'nt have a problem getting xlobby to run with a Divx vids. (Although I'm not sure if ZP will play Divx encodes) but I was wondering if anyone here is using Divx as an alternative. Also should I get decent enough quality for a 30" Widescreen set? Finally I also Have a question on using a lossless music format with Xlobby like Ape, Shn or Ogg...

Any suggestions , opinions welcome

I use divx and xvid for a few movies I have (mainly box sets) and it works awesome with zp and xlobby. Good luck!
