Well I will start this off by saying that I like acidrip for what it is. A very simply GUI, which rips DVD's quite well with only a few clicks.
Now on to my question
I have ripped two DVD's using acdrip today and neither was close to the filesize that I wanted.
For the first I set a target size of 700 MB, the second a target size of 1400 MB. The 700 used only a single pass, the 1400, double pass. mp3lame for audio and labavcodec for video.
The final sizes of these were 590 MB and 1050 MB respectively.
So my questions are.....
1) Is this a fluke and my bad luck? or are the target sizes more just "a suggestion"?
2) Is there anything I can do to more specificly set the filesize?
3) Perhaps something I am doing wrong?
Don't get me wrong here. The software is great and both DVD's turned out perfectly fine with acceptable quality, I just want to pack as many bps as I can for top quality at ~700 MB.
