    New System Fails Playing HD Video

    I think I solved the problem by simply installing a HIS Silent HD4650 card. Their must have been a problem playing these files with the internal 780g video in the gigabyte motherboard. This is odd since i even RMA's the MB so the problem was actually on both boards.

    Willing to Pay - Need software to convert DVD to H.246, DIVX, MGEG, etc...

    How does the quality compare between converting the vob files with handbrake to H.246 vs using videoredo and converting to MPG files. I know the file size of the videoredo conversion are the same size as the original VOB files compared to smaller h246 files.
