When I said faster than handbrake (which was my previous go-to converter) I was talking about highest quality off-line conversions which you can then sync with iTunes if you wish for off-line viewing. Most people think of Airvideo as a streaming app but it's also a very competent and speedy off-line converter.

The same files will play on my 52" home screen although, of course, they'll be upconverted to the big screen through my PS3. I find this upconversion to be only slightly less quality than standard definition DVDs.
