How do I convert a dvd to be compatible with a pc

how do I covert a DVD to be compatible with a pc?

Apple's iLife suite, which includes iMovie and iDVD will allow you to assemble, author and create a DVD movie disk. Toast Titanium can also do that.
If money is no object, there's also Adobe's Premiere Pro Suite, and Avid.

  • How do I convert my DVD's to iPod

    How do I convert my DVD movies with Quicktime so I can watch them on my iPod?
    I don't see any options in QT, where is it buried?
    I'm not going to spend any money for the Pro version until I see how it works.
    Many Thanks

    To convert a DVD for iPod use, you'll need to use third-party software.
    You'll first need decrypting software to remove the encryption on the DVD.
    Then you'll need conversion software to convert the decrypted files into an iPod friendly format.
    Sometimes, both of those tasks can be accomplished with one piece of software.
    PQ DVD seems to be popular for Windows users, as well as ImTOO.
    Many other titles have been mentioned in this forum. Your question gets asked, and answered, a lot.

    Or give mpegstreamclip a try.

    I don't find it difficult to try but some have said that it is. YMMV.
    I know how to use it and do all the time, it's just hard to do it 'blind'.

    Your problem is not exactly the same as that of the original poster of this thread, and it can be very confusing for everybody if we try to answer more than one question in each thread.
    In order for us to give your problem our undivided attention to try to solve it, would you kindly start your own thread, describing the trouble you are having in the fullest detail, including completing your details to show what Mac you are using, what operating system, what camera and what version of the iMovie in question.

  • How Do You Convert a DVD video to an mpeg video?

    I was just wondering...how do you convert a DVD disc that has videos in it and make it into quicktime mpeg videos that can make the computer understand?

    Hi Ryan.
    The FREE program HandBrake will convert DVDs or just sections into mpeg4 files. They can't be imported directly into FCE but they can be imported into iMovie.
    Then you just copy the iMovie files into FCE.
    Download it here:-

  • HT1583 What blank DVD disks are compatible with burning a film from Idvd on an applemac?

    I have just finalized a project in imovie and this message came up on the screen - "Your project exceeds the maximum duration. To burn your DVD, change the encoder setting in the project info window".
    I have changed the encoder setting from best fit to Professional but I am having burning the film to a dvd. The computer tells me to load a dvd or my driver is busy - which it isn't it only has a blank dvd disk in it. So I was wondering whether my DVD disks are compatible with the applemac computer!
    HELP!

    Hi
    So I was wondering whether my DVD disks are compatible with the applemac computer!
    And if You tell - what brand and type You are trying to use - I will be so much easier !
    But most often the problem is
    • Do NOT - insert the DVD disk before iDVD specifically as You to do this. As Desktop will catch it and try to format it as a Data-DVD - Not what You want (a Video-DVD) as Data-DVD can not be played on standard DVD-players.
    To get it even better I do
    • Use Verbatim - Never Memorex or NoName etc cheap brands (as they don't work OK for Me)
    • DVD-R - as they play on even older DVD-players
    • Burn Speed - set down to x2 or x4 MAX ! - Best IS NOT BEST at all here !

  • How can I find a printer that is compatible with my ox 10.4.11 operating system

    Helllo,
    I have several questions but my most current one is how can I find a printer that is compatible with my current operating system?

    Brother is good about supporting older Mac OS versions. We have their HL5250DN b/w laser that supports all the post-1997 Macs in the house, including a 1998 vintage Beige G3 minitower running OS 10.3.9. There is also a driver with OS9 support on the Brother web site.
    The bigger problem, based on posts I see in these forums, is not a printer failing to support an older OS but one not supporting a new Mac OS. There are numerous posts after a big OS version change (like the intro of Lion) where people run out and buy whatever printer looks cute/sounds good without researching whether the device supports the new OS yet. Printer makers are often not good about having updated drivers developed by the time Apple rolls out a new OS.

  • How do i know if my itunes is compatible with windows 64 bit?

    How do i know if my itunes is compatible with windows 64 bit?

    Did you download the 64-bit installer?
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT) as you start iTunes, then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

  • How can I confirm that my extensions are compatible with FF ver 4 and ver 5 before I upgrade?

    When I have upgraded in the past I have been affected by extensions that do not work in the new version. How can I determine if my extensions are compatible with new versions. I have looked at knowledge base and other help but I can find nothing.

    Thanks, Forewarned is forearmed.
    Checking my incompatible extensions now seems to be less than when I just casually reviewed the list. Perhaps authors are still updating their products.
    Most of my incompatible extensions are not critical. Perhaps the most important is AARDVARK which I use extensive prior to printing bank statements.
    My incompatible extensions are:
    Aardvark
    Colourful Tabs
    Image ToolBar
    MS .NET Framework Assistant
    Quick Page Zoom
    Rewind/Fastforward Buttons
    Windows Update

  • How do you get palm tx to be compatible with rhapsody?

    Does anyone know how to get a palm tx to be compatible with rhapsody.  The origanal install disk has rhapsody, but when I try to install, I get a message that it is expired.  I use rhapsody with an mp3 player at the moment, but would also like to be able to use it to put music on my tx.
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    Easiest way to move mp3's to a Palm device is with a cheap USB card reader.  Just connect it to your computer and drag and drop the mp3's into the /AUDIO folder. 
    Done!

  • How can I convert Imovie DVD to work on a PC

    I am trying to make a class video in imovie. I want to make DVDS for the kids that will play on PC's Dell Etc. or on their dvd players at home? How do I convert it in imovie to burn to a DVD that will play on a PC

    Hi
    There are two levels on this Q:
    A. If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on Internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.
    B. If You got a DVD authoring program - then
    Making better or worse DVDs still occurs
    • Brand of DVD matters - Cheap DVDs as Memorex and NoName known problem makers for VIDEO - I only use Verbatim
    • Type of DVD used - I use DVD-R as they also play on older DVD-players - and NEVER +/-RW as they usually gives lot's of problems
    • BURN SPEED - (Important esp reg. PC or playback on Mac that burned the DVD) - I set it down to x2 or x4 as this gives far less burn errors

  • How can I convert copied DVD's to play on iTunes/Apple TV?

    I'm trying to convert my DVD collection to hard drive to play on my TV using Apple TV.  I can rip the DVD's to HD, but don't know how to get them into iTunes so that Apple TV can access them.  Any suggestions?

    Assuming you have .avi or mkv files on your hard drive ( or most other formats!) download Vuze - the basic software is free - I've been using it for almost a year- never had lypsync problems. And it asks you what device you'll be sync'ing iTunes with the optimise the format.
