Using handbrake at high profile settings, I can usually get a dvd rip to 500-700mb and maintain dvd quality. Unfortunately, you loose the extra features but I don't care about that.

If you use a good container (like mkv) use can keep all the subtitles and sound tracks you want. (Sound takes more space, though.)

Your using the original Rapier you need to use one of the modded version like this one.

That's not true at all. If you're after the Blu-ray, DVD, HD-DVD icons, you'll need to put that in the filename; ie: Batman.Bluray.mkv. If you're after the Divx, Dolby, Resolution icons, you'll need to enable 'Extract Media Information' in the System settings.

Sorry I misinterpreted the question. I thought he was talking about the menu type on the playing screen not the icons.

ok cool. so far so good. for all the movies i have the icons, except for the dvd's (VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS). the strange thing is, while watching the movie (the dvd) I see the icons... (like here)

The reason is XBMC cannot extract media info from a VIDEO_TS folder unless it is playing.
