I can't tell if this is being serious or not but seriously... Just rip a dvd then x25?


It's a fair question. Actually this thread reminds me a bit of the time I started editing and had all sorts of stuff to ask (like HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO EDIT) that would now seem silly to me to even think of. So let's not be cynical, people :P

Anyway, I'll answer that for you - it varies, it really depends on the actual content of the DVD, but you're looking at upwards of 7.5GB per DVD (often less). I'd set aside 200GB to be on the safe side.

You can avoid large data storage by just planning your amv out or segmenting it (edit some render that uncompressed then get more source to scrub through). If your using multiple animes you can edit with one anime for a bit then edit with another in the same fashion.

Or you could just do what you were trying to do earlier, Rip some dvd's then create clips from those dvd's then switch to different dvds. I had no idea you were using that many. The edit the AVS route is usually easier for just a single series. I don't even think the AVS would work properly with 25 dvd's worth of footage on a single avs load without crashing every now and then during the editing process.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson
