what method do you all use to backup your movies on your xbox? i have a 160 gig hard drive but after my mp3's and games it takes alot of space. i want to save space with my movies and was wondering what is the best method so i get good quality but save some space. what methods do you guys use? thanks

moving to of topic since not directly related to xbox. persoanly i (still) compress my dvd's to divx 3.11 and mp3 cbr 128kb with flaskmpeg. i know i should start to look into newer codecs (like xvid or divx 5.1 + aac/mpeg4-audio) and methods like autogk or fairuse. checkout doom9.net

get a copy of divxand check out dr.divx or else xvid and or divx and auto-geordianknot. if your not familiar with backing up to mpeg4, the above tools are easy to use.
as was said do to www.doom9.org and you'll find a shed load of info there. or www.dvdrhelp.com
