Holy shit this hilarious.
I've spent all day doing a work project of something like this.
Converting a .PPT a .SWF and a .FLV into three separate high quality MPEG files that we could loop on tvs at a trade show.
I found a pretty good program, but I'll check this out too!

I just got it today (obviously), and the only issue I have is that the max resolution appears to be DVD quality. I had some 720p mkv files I wanted to convert to WMV, and it couldn't do a resolution that high.

Just so you know, you have to install it today, too apparently. There is a reg key in the zip file.
If it is low res, it will be good when I want to rip a movie to my blackberry.
Will it custom-rip apart a DVD into ISO files? Like if I wanted to rip one episode of a TV show from a TV?

Dunno. I just got it cuz it seems like every once in a while I need to do something like this and it's a pain.

DVDFab was getting the job done for me but
1. It expired
and
2. I don't have a BD drive, yet, so I couldn't rip my blue rays.
But yes, sometimes I have to convert from one format to another for some dumb reason.

DVD Shrink was one I used for a long time. But, they stopped updating it, so it can't read most new disks. Abandoned it a while ago.
DVD Fab is really good, updated, etc. TONS of options. But, it's expensive (especially when you add on the mobile options).
DVD Decrypter worked well too. However, again, not updated any more. So, it can't read new stuff. Really, anything that's not updated is virtually useless.
I have not used the other two, but, one of the other two has no copy protection stuff, so, worthless again.
One they don't list is Fair Use Wizard. Free version limits you to creatign 700MB files, which works for me cause I'm compressing them for mobile use. The full version will do no loss conversions and lots of different codec options. Don't know how much the full version is. I've only found one movie it couldn't read due to copy protection. But, it's updated here and there, so, that's probably temporary.
Oh, and DVD Fab now has BD support. Not sure about any others.
One more thing, if you uninstall DVD Fab and reinstall it, you can use it again. But, only till you shut it down. Once you close it and reopen it, the trial expired again.
