Thanks. And yeah, I definitely recommend In Bruges. It's an excellent film. It would certainly make my top 10 movies list.
Got a tip for us?

Your film rental place must get films in pretty early
I would assume that it's actually his local movie retail store because nobody would ever rip DVD's that weren't their own, much less download them.
A shop in the UK that has films that aren't even released on DVD in the US? Impressive!
HAHAHAHA how naive, everyone who is less than honest does it
BTW they are aXXo releases, previously the picture had (Not aXXo) in the name, which is how I know. Oh and the fact he black out his name proves that he got them illegally
HAHAHAHA how naive, everyone who is less than honest does it
He was being sarcastic
Hi
I just purchased an Apple TV and after reading posts both here and on Handbrake, I'm a little confused.
My observation is that on Handbrake's forum the developers stay on the legal side with regards to the sources they use when encoding. Now each to his own, but in my opinion if you go out and buy a DVD (whether it be HD or SD) and then decide to encode it to a format compatible with Apple TV (for instance) or you go out and rent a DVD and do the same thing, both are illegal. Before you can do any encoding you have to circumvent the DVD protection and although you may be doing this for your own personal use, the protection is obviously there to prevent you from creating a copy in the first place.
Now what confuses me is that IF you acquire movies online (illegally, i.e. torrent or otherwise) and the movie is in a format not compatible with Apple TV, then you would have to transcode into another format. Handbrake seems to be the best application for any encoding whether from original source or already encoded file, but what I don't understand is why there doesn't seem to be any support for it on Handbrake's forum. Again in my opinion this is just as illegal as encoding a movie which you have rented or purchased.
I welcome any clarification. Thanks.

If you buy a dvd you are allowed to make 1 back up of it legally. At least in the states you are.
In other words, all those preaching that what they are doing is legal since they have the original source is in fact bull***t, as I wrote in my previous post.
OK, so why are the Handbrake developers, so adamant about their zero policy for people asking for help with transcoding files rather than the original?!
Maybe it's just me and I have misunderstood the whole concept of encoding etc. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Well piss on them. If it bothers people so much about encoding a movie they own to another format then don't do it. It doesn't bother me one bit. Only thing that bothers me if how long it takes to do it
That is quite possibly the funniest thing I've read all day today. I'm 99.999999% sure no one on the Handbrake dev team owns the handbrake.com domain. It was registered on 06-20-2003, well before the start of the project.
Making a h.264 encode of an unencrypted DVD source is not illegal, in any country. How you get that unencrypted image might be, depending on if it is of your kid's first birthday or the latest Hollywood blockbuster.
You misread, he said that the reason HB is registered/hosted .fr and not .com is because in the EU it is legal to make back up copies of your Films/TV Shows not that they own HandBrake.com
So your post is probably the most funniest thing I've read all day today...

My point was that is not the reason they chose .fr. Nothing that Handbrake does is illegal.
Actually, it not. Titer, HB's original developer is in france, and handbrake.fr just made sense as he still runs the server. the original website handbrake.m0k.org is in the same place. Transmissions servers are there to along with several other projects.So your post is probably the most funniest thing I've read all day today...
