Burning DVD's into itunes?

Can you burn DVD's into iTunes and if so how do I go about doing this?
Thanks

I'm assuming you mean "rip" (which generally refers to taking content off of a CD/DVD and putting it on a hard drive) not "burn" (generally taken to mean putting info from a hard drive onto a CD/DVD). If you are asking about commercial DVDs, sadly, we can't help you. Commercial DVDs are encrypted. In the U.S. breaking that encryption is illegal and we are prohibited by the terms of use of these forums from discussing software or methods. Sorry.

How do I get DVD movies into iTunes (and thus my iPad)?

I have a pc with Windows XP. How do I import my DVD movies into iTunes? Do I need to buy additional software? Or is my best bet joining netflix?
Thanks!

you can copy them for your own use.
Copying is not the issue. Breaking the encryption is.
But it's kind of a catch 22 in that you cannot copy a DVD unless you break the encryption.
in Europe it is not
Europe is not one country.
Most European countries have their own equivalent of the DMCA and it is illegal to break the encryption in some of these countries.

Which software will allow yout to rip dvd's into itunes and playback?

I am interested in ripping my dvd collection into itunes and having ability to playback via apple tv.
Please advise.
dell Windows XP Pro

I don't understand the snobbery attached to paying a few dollars for a piece of software when all of us spend thousands on equipment.
All the mentioned software is available for download and tryout, if you like you buy - simple!
For me "DVD to AppleTV Converter" runs incredibly slow on my Quad as it doesn't support multi-processing, so no good. I have no idea of the quality of it's conversions because I binned it as soon as I realised this flaw and wasn't prepared to pay for a product that failed to utilise the power of my machine.
"VisualHub" however is amazing. The quality is great, and it's fast - maxing out all four processors, so I have no problem shelling out a few quid for it.
"Mediafork" is another great utility, and has the advantage of being able to rip straight from a dvd, and the quality is great.

Importing DVD's into Itunes with Windows

Hi I was wondering if anyone knows how to import DVDs into Itunes so that there is a way for Canadians to have movies on their ipods. I was also wondering does anyone know when Canada will get Tv Shows and Movies in the Itunes Store?
Thanks.

Hi,
You might want to post this question in the Windows Forum rather than the Mac Forum. If you had a Mac I would suggest Handbrake (http://handbrake.m0k.org/) = they are working on a Windows version.
As to getting TV and Movies you're in the same boat as those of us in the UK

Is there any way to import my OWN DVD movies into iTunes and my video iPod?

I just purchased the new 30 GB video iPod last week, and although I have already purchased a few movies from the iTunes store, I wanted to know if there was a way to import a DVD movie from my own DVD library like we can with our own music CDs?
Thanks,

"That's too bad, because these are movies (DVDs) that I own and have purchased legally myself. How is that different from importing your own purchased CDs into iTunes? Seems like a double standard to me."
About "legally owning" the DVDs - Yes, I understand, and I'm figuring that most folks who want to put their DVDs onto their iPod are owning the movies legally (or, at least, it appears so).
That's not really the issue here, though.
The problem is, there is an encryption that is written onto regular, copyrighted DVDs (i.e., movies). In order to get that onto your iPod, you will have to use software on your computer that breaks that encryption, and makes the file into some more "normal" format, like say, MP4.
This action can arguably be considered as illegal, in a sense, since you are removing the encryption that's on DVD, which is protecting it from being easily copied, and transferred around. (which would be illegal).
This is a bit different than CDs, since, although they are copyrighted too, the songs are usually not in a protected format.
If you have a song that you've purchased from the iTunes Store, and you want to break into that "protected" file format, that's the same kind of issue as the DVD ripping.
(Notice that the Hosts included that into the ADUA as well, right along with DVD ripping.)
...It's quite an interesting kind of subject, isn't it?

Loading DVD movies into iTunes 10.6.3 over OS10.6.8 stream to iPad

Hi,
I am on holidays and want to watch a DVD (No Code of Conduct, always been a Martin Sheen fan) I bought at a Yard Sale. My van is set up to port the iPad audio through the van stereo and has a mounting bracket for the iPad that makes it handy to watch while in the bed. Fortunately, I brought my MacBook along for the DVD player. I want to watch the movie on the iPad while it is playing in the MacBook. I tried to load the DVD into iTunes for Home Sharing , but no luck there.
How do I stream a DVD movie to my iPad from my MacBook?
Ken

Sorry Winston, but I can and have done it.
Not the way I wanted to but it works none the less.
First, convert the DVD to a format usable by iTunes
Second, import the converted movie to iTunes and turn on home sharing for the MacBook AND the iPad, log in both machines
Third, make sure both devices are connected to the same network. I also tried turning on web sharing on the MacBook but for some reason we sharing wouldn't run so I connected to an another available network.
Last, run Video on the iPad, select the movie and badda bing, it works.
NOTE, try this with a better movie next time. Although I like Martin Sheen, not the best choice.
Ken
PS. I'll report back when I get websharing working to see if it runs without an outside network.
PPS. Since the movie was loaded into iTunes it was easy to sync the movie into the iPad for watching without the help of the MacBook.

DVD Import into iTunes?

Is there a way to import my home-made DVD's directly into iTunes?

you need to convert them into an iTunes-friendly format first.
use 3rd party apps such as HandBrake or _*MPEG Streamclip*_.

Help! I can't my dvd's into iTunes!

I have converted my dvd's into mp4 special for an ipod but when I try to bring them into iTunes nothing happens. I have try dragging and dropping, importing, adding to library and nothing seems to work. I even restarted iTunes, restarted my computer and retried the conversion from dvd to mp4. Why won't iTunes accept my mp4 files?

okay i know this probably wont help but theres many of us out there trying to figure this out. Is it just one dvd perhaps the same one, or is it every dvd you've tried to download.
If its one, all I can say is its like magic, these computers. It seems as though there is like a magic encoding that nobody knows how to get rid of. You never did state which converter you have used?...I know one thing that worked for me was trying different converters, free ones worked better than the payed ones I must say! Other than different converters try put it into a side format like a lay-over on an airplane trip sounds stupid but works sumtimes. If you convert the dvd into a diff format like just mpeg and then mpeg4 it seemed to work.

How do i get My DVD's into iTunes so i can put them on my iPod?

I have alot of DVD's and dont want to spend money buying the same movies from iTunes just to have them on my iPod. Can someone please tell me how to get my DVD's onto iTunes?
Thank you,

Sorry, but that would require breaking copyright protection that is encrypted on commercial DVDs. We're not allowed to discuss those procedures here in the forum, per the Terms of Use agreement:
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.

Burning LP's into Itunes

I bought an ION USB turntable to download all of my albums into itunes, but there are a couple of problems I have encountered. I checked with ION online, and the problems seem to be Leopard related. I get a LOT of static noise, and a ton of background noise, like a microphone is recording. Can anyone give me any tips at all on what the **** to do with this? Apple alledgedly holds the key to this problem, but I haven't seen a true fix yet.

If you're using Audacity as I believe is included with the Ion, look here for their tips:

Using Handbrake to burn DVD movie to iTunes to sync to iTouch

What steps do you take to burn a DVD movie to iMac iTunes so you can sync it when iTouch is hooked to it?

Burning is creating a CD/DVD as when you burn the disc with the laser.
RIP is getting the stuff off a CD/DVD.
It is illegal to RIP DVDs to your computer (even if you purchased the DVD), therefore cannot be discussed in these forums.
