How to convert DVD to 3gp proper way - 1st part: preparation

This and this tutorial sucks. Although they produce decent results, the way is much too complicated. I found much simpler way how to do it, and will post this tutorial in several posts. In this first post in this series we'll prepare everything for real actions.

Make 2 folders, "c:\movies" (where all movie related files will be), and "c:\programs", where we'll put some programs.

Now download the following:
- virtualdub and extract the files into "c:\programs\virtualdub"
- MPEG2 plugin for virtualdub and extract MPEG2.vdplugin into "c:\programs\virtualdub\plugins"
- AC3 plugin for wirtualdub and extract AC3.vdplugin into "c:\programs\virtualdub\plugins"
- ffmpeg and extract it to "c:\programs\ffmpeg"
- avisynth and install it
- optional: DVDDecrypter and install it
- vobsub and install it. Choose custom install and check the settings like in the picture below:



If you'll ge a prompt about virtualdub install folder, choose/type "c:\programs\virtualdub"

- now make a text file c:\movies\movie.avs, with the following content:

AVISource("C:\Movies\movie.avi")



Just one more thing to do: run "c:\programs\virtualdub\auxsetup.exe", click "Install handler" and "OK".
