IPad question re: DVDs

Does anyone know if i can import some of my DVDs to my desktop computer and download them on to my iPad? 

I'm going to presume you're talking about home made dvd's (converting commercial dvd's requires that you break the CSS encoding which is against the forum rules here to talk about or help you with...if you're doing commercial dvd's you need to look elsewhere or figure it out on your own.)
There are some great programs out there to convert your dvd's into MP4's. Handbrake is a great one. Format Factory also works (but it's pc only). Mpegstreamclip will also convert the files. All are freeware. (I'd recommend handbrake first, it has iDevice presets and a queue feature that allows you to convert several cuts on your DVD at once)
Once you convert those files into mp4's, import them into the iTunes library, then choose which ones to sync to your iPad.

  • How can I get an iMovie on my iPad onto a DVD?

    Hi! I wish to move an iMovie from my iPad onto a DVD. I do not have a mac but I have an asus computer and blank DVDs. I've been trying to get it to work by accessing my videos then copying the video to the desktop, then moving the video to the desktop and then burning it to the disk, but it's not working. It always says error. Is it in the wrong format? What do I do? I really have to get this done tonight so all answers appreciated! Thanks so much!!

    My turning it into a standard video DVD in mpeg2 format - which is what iDVD does.
    Alternatively export it as a Quicktime file.

    iTunes, for now
    2) no usb or card reader? you have to have an attachment through the Dock connector?
    Yes - there will be an accessory available for SD cards.
    3) Can it read pdf files?
    Yes since it runs iPhone OS
    4) no flash? can the mac's safari do flash?
    No flash in iPhone OS Safari, but Mac OS X Safari has it.
    5) Can you develop apps on the iPad?
    Unknown, but there is an iPad SDK for use on a Mac.
    6) anyone know when you can actually see one in the store? not buy but see one.
    Near the end of March for WiFi versions and end of April for 3G versions in U.S.
    June timeframe internationally.

  • Is this now where to ask DVD Studio Pro questions?  If not, please let me know where.  Here's my question:  Using DVD Studio Pro 3, when trying to burn a disc which is 4.5GB, I get error message "Not eough disk space in target folder".  What to do?

    Thanks.  Unfortunately, I need to make a master DVD that can then be duplicated in bulk as a single layer disc.  This surprises me because I tried burning a different DVD project that has worked in the past which is also 4.5 GB and now I could not burn that either.  I also reencoded some material to get the new project down to 4.4 GB but it still would not burn.  Any ideas are appreciated.

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • Sort of an ipad question. Re: DVD digital copies

    Can you copy DVDs and/or Blu Rays that come with a free digital copy into your itunes library? If you can, are those same movies able to be transferred to your iPad?
    i have about 5 movies in my DVD/Blu Ray collection that came with digital copies and i think i'd like to add them to my iPad if i'm able.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who knows.

    I never knew that the digital copies were available on my Blu Rays until a couple of months ago. I then went through my whole collection and found about half had digital copies. And you're right, I do select for digital copies more often than not.
    My only issue is that the digital copies are low def, not the beauty of BluRay. And we don't get all of the extras, which I kind of like.
    Might sopund a bit dumb, but where do i look for these digital copies?
    None of my mac computers have a blu-ray drive, so how would i find these files?
    Any help welcome

  • How can I convert my imovie from ipad to burn dvd on PC

    I have produced a 30 minute video for my son's football team using Imovie on my ipad.  I do not have an apple computer and need to convert the imovie to my PC in order to burn DVD's.  This process seems impossible.  I have read many forums and am trying to export the project to my camera roll, however the process never completes itself.  It will export for literally hours without completing the process.  This project have taken me weeks to complete, mainly because the process is very slow with imovie and extremely frustating.  Now, I'm ready to finish up and am so worried I will never get it off my ipad.  What do I do??

    NO files larger that 500mb (which is **** near any video)  will not transfer!
    At: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    It incorrectly state this:
    "Windows XP cannot import video files larger than 500 MB using Camera and Scanner Wizard. You can transfer these files directly from your device by selecting them in My Computer and dragging or copying the movie files to your computer's hard drive."
    Problem is that NO videos are shown as I open my ipad up in "My Computer", only photographs I have taken
    THIS INSANE.  You put Hign Def Video camera on the IPAD and NO simple way to get the you home made videos of it?  Search this topic "transfer video from ipad to computer"  you get NO help.  the only responses are from people hocking there "computer programs that will do it"  or "apps" that transfer files. 
    Apple here is the reality. At this point, regarding computers, PC is King...get it?  We do not all have apple computers to go along with our ipads.  ... So incase i need to break it down for you....YOU NEED TO HAVE A EASY WAY TO REMOVE VIDEOS FROM AN IPAD TO A FREAKIN PC...
    I am not sure what is most amazing:
    -ipad designers not seeing this as a problem
    -the lies at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 that discuss easy it is to simply open up "my computer" and drag an drop
    -ignorant people responding to several other people with my same simple problem with stupid response like "so you want to put a video on your ipad, you do that thru itunes" or "gosh it's been a while since i did this but its real easy, i think..."
    There are not even any you tube videos on the subject... Am I in Bizzaro World here????

  • Just a few questions about DVD Ripping and Final Cut 6

    Ok,
    Here is my first major concern. I have a wedding that I cut on the Final Cut Studio. After I burnt it to a DVD, I erased the main footage. However, the groom wanted to add something so I went into my backup files to get the information but just so happens that my backup hard drive crashed and it will not recognize on any Mac. (Tried 3 different Macs including 2 PowerMac G5’S and a Power Mac G4) Anyway all I have no is the DVD. I was wondering if anyone knew any good ripping software that I can rip this DVD back to a QuickTime. I have tried a few programs but the quality is just horrible.
    My next question is does anyone know when Final Cut Pro 6 is shipping?

    Did you lose your autosave vault with the crash? You could open your autosave and grab the last cut and do a media manager capture so you wouldn't have to re-edit or capture all of the media again.
    Also, there are people who can get the info off the drive for a modest fee. If this was a paying gig, consider it part of the cost of having done the project. If the groom was satisfied and the project was complete, I guess you could argue that an extra fee is in order if he wants a different version after the final version was already delivered and agreed upon. Otherwise you kind of owe it to him to do whatever it takes to give him a final output.
    Make a backup tape as well next time. That way you can recapture and add, then re-backup and re-compress. Lots of re-ings.

  • How do I transfer a TV clip to my iPad from a DVD

    How do I transfer a TV clip to my iPad from a DVD

    Commercial DVDs are usually encrypted. In the U.S., it's illegal to break that encryption which is a necessary first step in making a copy. Because it's illegal to do, the Terms of Use in these forums prohibit discussions about software or methodos. Sorry.

  • Air Display and iPad Question

    I am thinking about using Air Display on my iPad and on my iMac so my iPad can serve as a second monitor.
    From reading as much as I can find about Air Display, I see that the 2 systems communicate via WiFi.
    My question - I am assuming both systems communicate from one IP address to the other. If both IP addresses are on the same LAN, does the communications remain within the local network or do they go out on the internet and back in? My internet connection is via satellite and has a finite download limit per month. If the communications goes out on the internet and then back into my LAN, I would have a capacity problem.
    At $30 for both software pieces, I would rather have this question answered before I spend the money and do my own testing. Surely someone has made this test before.
    Thanks
    Adrian

    Hi Adrian.
    First, for faster responses, please contact our support team at http://avatron.com/support. I just happened onto your message here because it showed up in a Google Alert, but I often ignore those because they're mostly breaking news about Royal Air Force air displays in the UK and whatnot.
    Anyway, two things:
    First, Air Display won't cost you $30. You only pay for the client (the part that runs on the machine that will be used as a monitor). The host software is absolutely free. So, if you are using an iPad as a monitor for your iMac, you would only pay $9.99 for the iOS client. If you are using a Mac as a monitor for another Mac, you would buy the Mac app for $19.99 in the Mac App Store (or from our web site).
    Second, Air Display does not route your data through any device outside your local network. You can even run on an ad hoc network between your iMac and your iPad. No Internet connection is necessary. The only communication to the Internet is for administrative tasks, like when the host software periodically checks our server to see if a software update is available.
    Cheers!

  • How can I play my ipad through my dvd player

    How an I play my ipad music through my dvd player or hi fi?

    If you're just looking to play audio, the easiest way is to buy an AirPort Express and connect your stereo to the miniplug jack, then play using AirPlay. That's how I do it! And as an added bonus, it can extend your wireless network.

    An AppleTV would work too, if you're also looking to stream video.
