“A HandBrake-based ripper for DVD and video”

by Niamh Lynch about VidCoder

Vidcoder is a video ripper and transcoder that works with both DVDs and video files. It's light, packed full of configuration options and in all, a pleasure to use.

Vidcoder is the ideal tool if you want to rip movies from DVD or configure the encoding of video files you already have. The interface is simple and clean and there are bunches of simple features that make using it really easy. The best of these are subtitle support, the ability to queue and pause conversions and configurable presets.

When configuring your videos with Vidcoder, you'll be able to use the program's excellent configuration options to make sure you get it just right. From picture settings such as video resolution and cropping, to advanced specs such as filters and bitrate calculator, you're sure to be able to configure your videos in Vidcoder precisely to your specifications.

Vidcoder's probably not the ideal beginner's application, as it does have lots of advanced settings that need to be configured before you start. Unfortunately, it can't deal with CSS protection, so if you want to rip from protected DVDs, you'll have to find a third party application to do the job.

DVD and movie ripping is made easy and flexible with Vidcoder.

Pros
  • Excellent configuration options
  • Generate reports
  • Preview window
  • Support for subtitles
Cons
  • No offline help
  • Not easy for beginners
