What's a good bitrate for DVD quality on MP4?
Google left me with some wildly varying numbers.

I want to be able to take my DVD library and put it on my external HDD for viewing/streaming purposes. I'd also like to be able to view them on my tablet. If I have to do 2 versions of each episode, I will, but I'd rather not.

Since the source is DVD, I'm not looking for anything beyond that in quality. the largest device I'd be viewing it on is my 32" LCD TV. Even DVD has quality loss there, so....

I'd experiment, but it takes so long to encode just one, I'd rather see if anyone else has a decent rule.

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”
