This is a success story - for a change :)
I was just about to post to this forum with a problem I was having, but I figured it out and thought it was funny enough to mention.
I did 2 tests - 1 was a Battlestar Galactica episode off my TiVo, and the other was Pitch Black DVD rip. Both ran thru Videora fine (although not terribly fast) and generated mp4 files which showed up in iTunes.
However, I could not drag/drop the movies to my iPod (80GB 5.5 Gen). I thought iTunes was refusing based on some format problem. My suspicion was enhanced when I saw the option "Convert Selection for iPod". I thought "NO, not another conversion!". But even after trying that conversion I still couldn't drag/drop the newly converted movie. WTF?!?
Well, it turns out some junk had shifted on my messy desk and was pressing down the ESC key, apparently preventing drag/drop from working at all. (I started to get suspicious of something like this when I found I couldn't drag/resize the windows explorer columns).
Anyway, videora seems like a great tool. Thanks for the hard work!
