DVDs onto iPod

There's got to be some software somewhere that allows you to download DVDs onto an iPod. Help?

Yes there is.. many different converters are able to do this task - here are my recommendations:
Hopefully in answer to the many posts on “how to get various video formats onto your iPod” I have put together a summary of applications I use. I have tried a few others with varying amounts of success (some of which are free) - I have finally plumped for the software produced by Xilisoft as providing good quality video relatively affordable cost for use withPC’s and numerous MS operating systems. The link below takes you to their site which not only allows you to download trail versions of their software but also has a comprehensive set of tutorials and FAQ's for their iPod video conversion software.
I have regularly used these applications to convert various file formats to iPod friendly video. They are simple to use although frequently processor and RAM hungry:
Use Xilisoft iPod Video Converter if you want to:
[*]Convert various video file formats to MP4
[*]Convert most audio file formats to MP3
[*]Extract audio from video file and save to MP3
[*]Encode several files simultaneously
[*]Pause encoding process to run other CPU time consuming programs at any time
Supported file formats:
Video:
[*]MPEG(mpg, mpeg, dat, vob); WMV; ASF; AVI; QuichTime(mov, qt); MPEG4(mp4); 3GP; DV(dv,
dif); Real Video(rm); Animated GIF(gif - decoding only); Macromedia Flash(swf - decoding
audio only);
Audio:
[*]MPEG Audio(mp2, mp3); WMA; WAV; AU; MPEG4 Audio(m4a); Real Audio(ra); OGG; AAC; Raw
AC3(ac3); NUT Open Container Format(nut);
To convert DVD's to an iPod friendly video format:
Use Xilisoft DVD to iPod V4:
[*]Just pop the DVD in your drive select compression variables (default settings work well) and sit back!
All these products are available on a "try before you buy basis", yes there are applications for XP which are free but and may work just as well but I have converted many hours of video for my iPod without hassle using the Xilisoft products (no I don't work for them!). Check there web site HERE

Load a purchased DVD onto iPod through iMac

I have an iMac and bought a 3rd generation iPod Nano for my son. I've loaded CDs that I've purchased into iTunes and can easily upload the songs to the iPod for him. I would like to load a DVD that I've purchased (a commercial release) onto the iMac and then onto his iPod. How would I go about doing that?
Thank you in advance!

Go to RipDifferent .com and also get VisualHub. Can't go into more details as we are not allowed to talk about this subject. I am surprised that this thread is still here.

Dvd ripping to put home dvds onto ipod video

ok so i was told to use "decrypter" and so i went to google and typed it in and it came up with a few results
the first one was:
DVD Decrypter
so i click on that and this is what it says:
"This software is no longer available, this page is stored for archival puposes only.
On 24th of November, 2005, Macrovision Europe contacted AfterDawn.com, notifying us that they have acquired full rights to the DVD Decrypter software and have changed its licensing terms. Effective immediately, they have decided to withdraw all distribution rights from all third party companies, including AfterDawn.com. Thus, distributing DVD Decrypter is now as illegal as it would be to distribute cracked copies of Windows operating system or pirated copies of games."
ok so first off what does my trying to put dvds on my ipod have to do with pirated movies and games?
anyways
the second result was:
DVD Fab Decrypter
so i click on that and this is what it says:
"This software is no longer available, this page is stored for archival puposes only.
On 1st of January, 2006, a new copyright legislation came into force in Finland that made it illegal to distribute tools that allow circumvention of technical copy protections. The legislation was approved by Finnish parliament and was based on European Union Copyright Directive, a law that each EU member state has to implement to their national legislations"
So basically how the heck do i get dvds on my ipod using decrypter if it's now illegal to use it?

Cyndi,
The other poster is nothing more than a spammer, who has already been kicked off of these groups under another name, who only posts to spam this product (click on his/her/its name to see all the "help" it has offered other people only relating to this product). Any product that has to spam to get their product sold, should be given a cautious eye.
Anyway, to help you out, start with this list...

DVDs on Ipod Classic?

Can you burn a DVD onto Ipod classic? If not now, anyone hear if this is a potential Itunes upgrade?

What DVDs are you referring to?
If you are referring to commercially produced DVD movies, unfortunately, because of copyright issues discussing this subject is not permitted on Apple's forums as the Apple Discussions User Agreement now clearly states.
Under item 2, para 8.2 it says "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."

Getting my dvd to ipod touch

hi, can anyone help im havin trouble finding out how to get my new movies from dvd onto ipod
thanks all help appreciated

The vast majority of commercial DVDs are encrypted. In the U.S., breaking that encryption, a necessary first step in copying, is illegal. Because of that, the terms of use of these forums prohibit discussions of software or methods. It doesn't matter if you've purchased the DVDs legally. What you didn't buy was the right to copy them.
However, more and more DVDs are coming with a digital download that you can use on your iPod.
Best of luck.

How to get dvd movies onto ipod with windows

Okay, I have finally figured out how to get movies from DVD to ipod for windows users, and it's free, with no watermarks. It involves a 2-program process. First go and download Videora Ipod Converter at http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/
Then download DVDFab Decrypter at http://www.dvdidle.com/free.htm
Now after you have installed these onto your computer:
1. Insert the DVD into your disc drive.
2. Open DVDFab and open the DVD folder, video_ts or whatever it happens to be
3. Select your target destination for the files to be saved
4. Click start to begin copying the DVD.
5. Once everything is done being saved open videora ipod converter
6. Go to setup and select the one click profile which size of video you would like and the output of the files
7. Go to convert and select new transcode video, find your video file and select open
8. Wait for the file to be completed transcoding
9. Open itunes and select file, add file to library, find the file(s) and select okay
10. Most of you should know what to do form here

For anyone who wants to get up and running, these are the settings I use for Videora.
After days of experimenting, I settled on the settings below which seem to give a good balance between filesize and quality. There will be a bit of blockiness in the dark shadows but if it's too much, just increase the 'bitrate'. Experiment with a short video, but make sure the video you experiment with is very high quality or you won't know what is or isn't down to your settings.
Again, don't use h264. Only Quicktime Pro has h264 nailed. You may be able to get some things to work in h264 but more likely, you'll be watching a movie and it will suddenly stop, or your iPod's hard disk will start munching away to a black screen. mpeg-4 works fine in Videora, always. No problems.
Video
Mode: MPEG-4 > CBR
Resolution: 320 x 240
Passes: One (two makes almost no difference except doubling the time)
Bitrate: 384kbps
Framerate: Input
Audio
Bitrate: 96kbps
Channels: Stereo
Sample Rate: Input
Volume: 100%

How to put dvds onto harddrive then to ipod?

Im about to buy a Macbook with Quicktime pro. But i'm still not sure if I will be able to put most of my dvds onto my ipod. So can anyone here tell me if it will be possible to download my dvds to my mac with h.264 and then to my ipod using quicktime. So if someone knows than will they also tell me step by step instructions on how i will be able to do so. Thanks.

If you search the iPod 5Gg forums (e.g. vs. here) there is a lot of info on DVD to iPOd conversion. QT does not export audio from muxed sources, DVD being muxed MPEG-2 audio.
Some people swear by handbrake others at it.
You will get better quality and 640X480 using Mac the Ripper to rip the main feature then using iSquint at the TV mode setting or MPEG Streamclip at the iPod setting to transcode to H264.

Transferring videos from DVDs onto the iPod

Is it possible to transfer a Movie from a DVD onto my iPod. If so, how? I have tried, but it doesn't work. Do I need to change the type of file that the video is? I have a 5th Generation iPod Video 30GB, but I will be getting an iPod classic 80GB soon.

I am afraid copying a movie DVD to iTunes would be illegal if you look at the copyright notice on the DVD. It would involve breaking the copy protection and it is against the forum terms of use to discuss this.
