If you are on a mac/linux, google “handbrake”.
If you are on a pc, google “videora”.
yea but those r converters,something to take the DVD and put the whole movie on it
The iPhone cannot read the DVD format – the decoder is not there. It •must• be converted.
In handbrake you can convert it and label the chapters easily so that once it is on the phone you can skip to whatever chapter you like.
some DVDs can’t be copied put into iTunes due to copyright laws. Note: apple teamed up with Fox to bring digital copies. So when you by a 21 century fox DVD you’ll get a special copy where you can import the movie into your iTunes library then into you iPod or iPhone. The first digital copy DVD is family guy: blue harvest. I thinks the only one so far. This new idea is fairly new, there will be more fox DVD movies with digital copies in the future.
Technically speaking, the digital copy you are describing has been converted to the H.264 format.
isn’t there a program where u can put a DVD I’m your cd drive and only copy the movie as one whole file and convert it to your iPod?
handbrake and videora are free and convert DVDs perfectly.
But when you put a DVD in the cd drive,oj videora how do you convert the whole video ts file as one movie instead of chapter by chapter,and where is that option,videora converts files only to iPod format
iPod format is the same as iPhone format.
i mean where do you go on the program to copy the movie part of the DVD to an external hardrive and then convert it to the format,like DVD shrink the program
Ah, you do that in the system.
• Create a new folder on your desktop.
• Open your file explorer (finder) and navigate to the DVD.
• Drag the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS to that folder on your desktop.
• When it is done copying, open the conversion program and select the folder on the desktop as your source.
Having the files on the computer helps with conversion speeds and reduces the chances for hangs.
but so I do that through videora or as just if I wanted to copy something? Would the copyright code thing prevent it?
not through videora. Just drag and drop, it’ll work :)
I use ImTOO Ripper. Works like a charm and even has 6 different formats especailly for the iPod Touch and iPhone. Chapters are included and the file is compressed to minimize space, but the good quality is still there. It also does all sorts of converting for non-DVD files to iPod. Enjoy :)
