hello,so i ripped the dvd and created some vobs,then i created a d2v file and another wav file...after that with tmpgen i encoded this 2 1150 bitrates and everything went ok and i could watch it from bsplayer...but then i thought that one way or another i would spend 2 700 mb cds then why not ake the wuality of the movie better,so i took it to 1500 btrate and it took me about 30 hours tp complete....but now the bsplayer doesn't play that and it is playing only at windows media player...what do i do now?

I don't know bsplayer, but one thing is for sure:
1500 is not acceptable vcd standard, maybe bsplayer can't handle this. What prog did you use for ripping? Smartripper?

I am using WinDVD 3.0 which came with my toshiba dvd.

Not worth downloading a trial version as it only plays 10 min of each movie.

Themis you should try the DivX format. It is a lot better. Less Space & better Quality! But if you're suttisfied with vcd, never mind.
Some sites if you want to try:
www.divx-digest.com
www.doom9.org
www.everwicked.com // it has Greek manuals too ;)
