Notes:

• The average rip takes around 1GB of hard disk space. Make sure you have enough.
• It will take you computer 2-4hrs to convert the DVD to play on the PMP, you will be almost unable to use it during this time.
• You must have a ASPI compatible DVD-ROM for DVDx to work, so if get errors, copy the DVD to your hard-drive, and go from there. This will require a extra ~4.5 GB.
