So if I'm understanding this correctly, all I need to do is rip my DVD's to .vob files, and store them on an external hard drive, plugged into my PS3 via one of it's USB ports and I'm off to the races?
That sounds too easy.

The PS3 is blue tooth, so universal remotes do not work  There are a couple of good ways to make them work. The one Ray posted works, and so does this one. The key differences in the available solutions are that the standard ones (like the link I put above) do not provide on/off functionality (i.e. use of the PS button on the remote). Finally, this solution does provide on/off as well as full functionality of all buttons on the PS3 bluetooth remote. Lots of options out there... Jason

My favorite ripping programs are avaialable from Slysoft , I have never been unable to rip anything with them, save for a couple of bad discs.

Any suggestions on a program that will rip a DVD into a 700 MB VCD?
Thanks

Hey Ray, Does it come with a list of IR codes to program into your Universal Remote? I have seen a list for PS2 that would work for most functions but I wonder about the distinct on and off.
I normally like to have my URC300 'learn' each command from the old remote so I make sure the button layouts stay consistent but this product does not come with a remote to learn from. Not a big deal as Google knows all but thought I'd ask since you have the product. Murph - the MX-700 and up have files availble on Remote Central that can be used via the MXEditor software. Not sure about the 300

In fact, it DOES work and is a pretty nifty piece of equipment.

It actually is that easy (happily  ) . That's exactly what I have been doing. Simply follow the directions in that thread that I posted. You will need to format the external HD in FAT32 and be sure that the single vob file is less than 4GB, otherwise it won't work. Do a test run and you'll end up with happy results.

The standalone bluetooth remotes don't have on & off functionality. The Schmartz I suggested DOES allow for discrete On and off commands for a universal remote (MX series and Harmony).

Thanks I wouldn't even waste the time trying. That kind of compression will give you horrific PQ.
