Well, I'm a burn fanatic! You might call me a CD Freak. If I were to count up all the gigabytes on my DVD collection, damn, man....
Ballpark estimate: 400 x 4 gigs each: 1.6 terabytes. That's really rough, though, because some don't fill the whole DVD5 and others are DVD9's.
Also, the vast majority of my hdd space is taken up by more movies that I've yet to burn, so yeah, I've got a lot of movies and TV shows.
nah i hate burning stuff
usually when i want something it finds a place on my harddisk and when i don't need it anymore i just delete it, if i want it again i redownload :P im considering burning naruto though. when you burn video, do you burn it as data or as video? so it will play in standard dvd players?
Well, 100000% of my DVD collection is obtained from commercial DVD's, so I just shrink them down to fit on a DVD5. So, to answer your question, it's burned as VOBs in DVD Video format.
Double postYou see I like to have the highest quality video as I can feasibly get. I don't care to keep copies of DivXed movies.
ah
you never burn dowloaded divx stuff?
No. There's no point. It would look crappy on my TV. I sometimes store them as data files on DVD's, but not often.
Assassinator Wrote:Actually, 3.5 years ago, when i didn't have the comp i have now, i was basically running on a 10gb HDD where about 8.5 of that gigabytes where used up by my dad and windows, and i didn't have a working cd/dvd burner, so my available free space was pretty much permanently on something like 50mb, and that was REAL PAIN.
haha yeah
i remember wanting a 4gb harddrive and getting a 13.5gb one and i was like WOOOW it will take me AGES to fill that.... now ur considered cheap if you buy a 40gb one cause 160/250 is standard....
Lol, my connection means that I store everything to DVD. Have about 200 DVDs of anime lying around the place...
I hate DivX - almost always convert to H.264/XviD to save more space on DVDs :P
mm. i don't like converting cause most releases are encoded pretty professionally to optimise image quality vs space required
^^Not really. XviD/H.264 rips are usually okay - typically, done by a 2-pass ABR encode.
DivX3 etc can be compressed a lot more by converting to H.264.
don really care about compression cause it takes somuch time to convert and theres usually a faster way to gain disk space. how long would it take to convert a naruto episode to the optimal format without losing quality, on ym pc (athlon 3000+ 1gb ram)
