Best DVD ripper

What is the best DVD ripper(free please) for windows?

Unfortunately, here is an excerpt to the ToU here:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
You can look at the entire ToU by clicking on the link at the bottom of every page.
Now, if you want to copy a movie you made previously, that would be perfectly okay and you can use something like Handbrake for it.

  • Best dvd to itunes ripper

    What is the best DVD ripper to iTunes to use on my Mac?
    I want to copy DVDs (that I own) to my iPad for use when traveling.

    If you need one, here's a useful DVD Ripper Mac for you. Maybe it's not the best in the world (you know, nothing is perfect), but it's useful enough. It supports OS X 10.6 and above. And I've seen the OS of your Mac, you can use this program with ease. The usage is quite easy, you just need to Add File->choose output format->convert. You may learn more about it through the guide (click it) here. I do wish that help, and good luck to you.

  • Best CLI DVD ripper IYO?

    What's the best CLI DVD ripper IYO?
    There are quite a few options as far as ripping a DVD from the commandline goes; there's burn, the python script, or dvd-backup, another decent command line utility, or the script on the wiki for use with mplayer's mencoder.
    I'm looking for opinions as to which is the best, or alternatively, why you like the one you've got. Being a CLI-fanatic, I want the best ripper I can run in a terminal, with the lowest number of dependencies possible, and preferably no gui at all (i.e. not mencoder, which requires you to have mplayer installed) :cry:
    Your thoughts?

    shadowhand wrote:Two questions about dumping DVDs: Can you loopmount the dump? And if so, can you rip the loopmount?  :shock:
    You can loopmount it with mount -o loop movie.img. But why would you want to? You can play them with mplayer -dvd-device movie.img dvd:// or set the dvd device node of your favorite multimedia player to movie.img.
    As for the second question: I'm not entirely sure. There'll probably some dvd rippers that can rip from an image. I also know that FreeBSD has a program (vndconfig?) that can create a device node that points at the image. I'm not sure Linux can do something like that. But again: why would you want to?

  • Best DVD to iPod Converter

    I just got a New iPod video and I was looking for some advice for the best DVD to iPod Converter. The two programs that I have been looking at are
    1.) Super DVD to iPod Converter and
    2.) PQ DVD to iPod Video Converter
    Both of them run around $30 and boast that they are the fastest. Anyone have any input?

    Well, I'll disagree. I've used quite a few and to me, PQ DVD is by far the best. It records all DVD's, not just ones that aren't encrypted. All of them are slow, pretty much 1:1 when doing a movie. Meaning, if your video is a hour long, it's going to take an hour to do it. I just start it before I go to bed. I don't really know why support is needed- it is an extremely simple program to use. Personally, the how long have they been around thing doesn't mean a hill of beans to me. It works, it's simple, and affordable.

  • What is the best DVD-ripping software for mac?

    what is the best DVD-ripping software for mac?

    Handbrake to copy to avi or mp4(I use it for watching my DVD's on the go, so my battery lasts for a longer time)
    I think MP4 is better quallity.
    To copy a DVD: simply use Toast (maybe withe popcorn, but I don't use it).
    But, be legal! This is a forum, and anyone can see your posts!

  • BEST DVD TO IPOD SOFTWARE

    Does anyone have an opinion on the best DVD to Ipod software to purchase? I've tried the trial versions of PQDVD, Xilisoft, and Cucusoft and have found problems and numerous differences with those. If there are any others out there please let me know that may be better/easier/higher quality, etc.. Also, I am trying to convert home movies that are on DVD-R's, it seems as though PQDVD can sometimes convert them, but they freeze up or don't show up at all on the others. A regular DVD was no problem on any of them. Thanks!

  • Best dvd-r recording material

    I am having a problem searching for the best dvd-r material to use. I keep getting problems with canon dvd-r recording captures.
    Can someone guide me in the recommened brands of DVD-R material?
    I understand most people rely on Taiyo Yuden as the least problematic. Is this so?

    Dave:
    I found this site about * Media Brand vs. Manufatrurer Brand * useful to choose media. You can use Toast to check the media ID to be sure you get what you want.
    Hope that helps !

  • What is the Best DVD Encoder According to These Posts

    I Have read many of the posts here and I was wondering, overall, which DVD ripping program I should use. I used DVD Ripper and that worker fine, except that it saved my DVD into 4 parts rather than one big one. Is there a better free program?
    Also,I used iPod Converter (Videora) and that worker well too. Is there a better setting for more accurate proportions? On my iPod the people in my movie are too thin.
    Thanks

    Dante,
    The reason the people in your movie "are too thin" is because when you encoded the file to use on your iPod, you were taking a 16:9 movie (or widescreen if you want to call it that) and converting it into a 4:3 movie (also known as full screen).
    If you were using the default Videora settings, you probably had your screen size as 320x240. This is why the figures in the movie have been made to look thin. You took what was once a long rectangle and squeezed it into a much shorter rectangle. I suggest you change your settings (because this is what I did and get images that you were proportioned) in Videora to 320x176. This will give you a "widescreen" image when the file is transcoded. Just make sure that you are only using that for widescreen movies. If you take a fullscreen movie (such as an older television show or 80% of broadcast television today) and try to change it to 320x176, the figures will look short and fat.
    Hope that helps. Took me a little while to figure out what settings to use, but I eventually got it to work just fine.

  • DVD ripper software recommendations for OS 10.4

    Having a heck of a time trying to rip a dvd of a performance of mine, so there is no copyright issue here.  Tried Mac the Ripper, didn't work (kept quitting).  Also heard of Handbrake and DVD Ripper.  Can't seem to find a version that will run with OS 10.4.11.  These products are either unavailable or are updated and won't work on my Mac.  I've thought of upgrading to 10.5, but that's hard to find as well, and costs an arm and a leg through other people.  Apple doesn't seem to even have that as a basic download anymore.  HELP!  Any suggestions on what I can do to rip my DVD onto my hard drive so I can edit?

    Please be aware that Fair Use, the doctrine that allows the back-up of your DVD/CDs for personal is not currently legally accepted in the UK and many countries outside of the US.
    Hence, here it is illegal to copy DVD's to any format and circumventing the copy protection is a breach of the copyright owners rights.
    Whilst I accept that copying is inevitable (you thieving bast*rds...!), please keep discussion away from any information about breaking DRM etc, as we will not allow the forums to be used for discussion of illegal activities.
    Mac DVD Ripper is very good and is my primary ripper. I also have RipIt which is pretty good too. MDRP is often discounted to around $35 and has been worth it for me.
    It seems well supported and is updated frequently. Nothing bad to say about RipIt, but it does have less options.
    Thanks.

  • What format shiould i burn dvd in to play in blueray player? Using MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake

    what format should i burn dvd in to play in blueray player? Using MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake

    MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake
    Neither is suitable for burning DVDs or BluRay media. They are DVD rippers/converters, not DVD authoring tools.  Handbrake doesn't produce any format suitable for DVD Authoring.   And while MacDVD Ripper can create .mov files even that's not a guarantee the file can be used for DVD authoring.  You need DVD Authoring software like Roxio Toast to burn DVDs or BluRay disks.
    Most BluRay players can play both standard def DVDs and high def BluRay disks.  Which kind do you want to burn?  And what exactly is your source media (video) that you want to burn?
    And if you want to burn BluRay disks, you need a BluRay burner.

  • Best DVD Burning Settings?

    Using Toast 7 and .img file, what is the best DVD media to use, and what are the best Toast 7 settings to use in burning a DVD?
    Thanks,
    Stuart

    Use 'minus' media and write at a low speed (2x - but not higher than 4x).

  • What is the best DVD burner?

    What is the best DVD burner for a G4 Dual? Internal or external? Brand? I am having burn problems wherein some burned DVDs do not run. I use a burn speed of 1xDVD with Toast 7 and an image file.
    Thanks,
    Stuart

    Many like the Pioneer (DVR-110D) or NEC (ND-3550A) brand. Since you have an MDD, I'd install a new drive underneath the original (if the original drive is still good). My MDD has the original Pioneer DVR-104 and a new DVR-110D. Internal drives are much less expensive that external drives (~$40 for OEM drive versus $179 for boxed external). I was able to get Toast Titanium for $39 (with rebates) and the 110D for $40.
    Regards,

  • Best DVD Software

    Can anyone tell me what the best movie to DVD software is out there? I am trying out Fotomagic, I have Imovie 08, 06 on my desktop as well as FCE. Which one will produce the best DVDs with regards to picture.
    Thanks

    The way to go would be to get a software bundle - software that is designed to work amongst the various applications - such as either Final Cut Studio Pro, or the Adobe Suite.
    After having used both programs for many years now (I work in Post Production & actually teach these systems + others) I'd say it is down to personal preference. After using and teaching these, I PERSONALLY prefer Final Cut Studio Pro. It is just a0 beautiful piece of software to use.
    I would not recommend using various individual software components, especially if this is a regular thing for you, as i have found that this is where a lot of the problems will arise - trying to export/transfer your projects from one to another. It has caused me heartache in the past. It is so much better to get a software bundle that is designed to work together! TRUST ME!
    And for what it's worth, after having to use both Mac and PC for the past many years (scary to think!) I would say that Mac is so UNBELIEVABLY BETTER, easier to use, smoother, and so incredibly hassle free when compared with its PC rivals!
    Keep us posted with what you decide

  • What's a safe DVD ripper to make copy of personal DVD movie and other movies?

    What's a safe DVD ripper to make copy of personal DVD movie and then make a copy to another blank DVD?

    The easiest way is to use Disk Utility to create a disk image of the DVD; you can then burn that to a blank DVD (and indeed play it using the DVD player).
    Insert your DVD. Open Disk Utility and select it in the sidebar (the disk itself, not the drive it's in.) Click 'New Image' in the toolbar.
    In the dialog box which opens set 'Image Format' to 'DVD/CD Master' and 'Encryption' to 'none'. This will make an exact copy without re-compressing.
    Obviously this will not work on a commercially issued DVD, only on ones you make yourself or which are not DRM protected.
