How do I mark an imported DVD movie as explicit?

Need to mark a few of my films as explicit so I can lock them out with Parental Controls. How do I do this?

Thanks, downloading now. Apple really should have a way of doing this. Don't want my daughter watching Derek and Clive when she gets bored of Dora the Explorer!

Import dvd movie to ipod

Hi
Is t possible to import a dvd movie into ipod? If so, how?
Regards
DS

Yes, it is possible. The basic process is to convert the movie from the MPEG-2 format of a DVD to a format the iPod supports, typically a variant of the MPEG-4 standard known as H.264, & add it to your iTunes library. This will require significant processing power & time, especially if you want the best compromise of quality & compression. With a G4 Mac, expect the process to take quite a few hours per hour of content converted.
Several applications will do the conversion. Many include presets for iPod-friendly "one button" conversions that do not require any knowledge of which formats the iPod will support.
HOWEVER, note that the legality of copying ("ripping") almost all commercial DVD releases to other media for any purpose is questionable at best, & certainly so if you do not own the DVD or have specific permission or a clear legal right to do so. This is not the place to discuss the nuances of the Fair Use principle or the implications of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, so all I will say about it here is respect the property rights of others just as you would want them to respect yours & don't steal movies.

Import dvd movie

How can I import a dvd movie into the iMac?

If your OS will let you you can drag & drop the movies folder with files from the DVD to your Mac's HDD. But if the movie is copy protected the OS may not allow you to copy the files. On DVDs where you can copy the files, still if the movie is copy protected if you try to play the movie from your HDD your OS will ask for you to insert the original DVD to authenticate this copy protected copy before it will play it.
Anything beyond this is not somethig about which we can leagally offer solutions for in the Apple Support Communities.

How to turn VOB files into DVD Movie

I came across a computer that had something like a "DVD MOVIE" file.
It was basically vob files packaged inside a "DVD MOVIE" so when you clicked on it, it would
play like a dvd movie. I have extracted some VOB files from a DVD disc to have
a "VIDEO_TS" folder containing the movie, but of course I can only play the VOB files
in a program like VLC...my question is - What do i need to do to put these vob files into
this "DVD FILE" folder or whatever so i can just click on it and it play a normal dvd?
It may have said "Movie file".......thanks.

I use Roxio Toast which converts and burns the VIDEO_TS folder with the VOB files into a playable DVD. It does not come cheaply but is well worth the money. There are also a lot of converters around that will shrink and convert your VOB files to .avi or .mp4 or whatever you prefer. Just do a google search or go to the App Store. MPEGStreamclip is a free program that is an excellent converter.

Qosmio G30: How can I install only Ulead Dvd movie factory from Recovery image

Hi everybody
I have question about Ulead dvd movie factory.
First, I bought my G30 with XP when it was the moment of the offer "vista for a few euros".
So, I installed Vista with the official CD from Toshiba. But there was no longer Ulead Dvd movie Factory. As the XP's restoration CD is only an image disk, I can't install from it.
Has anybody a solution for me?
Thank's.
BR.

I think there is a solution!
I found the Ulead DVD Movie Factory utility on the Toshiba page.
I searched in the Qosmio G30 area but without to be successful.
But I checked other sections and selected Satellite Satellite A series Satellite A200 (PSAEC) Vista and found the Ulead DVD Movie Factory 5.51.0147.03 version
Download it a try to install this tool.
Should works!

Can't import DVD movies to iTunes

I am unable to import DVD's I have purchased into itunes. I can import music CDs. Is there a way to do this?
Thank you

there is a way to do this.
there is a third party program called Total Video Converter available on Download.com
it gives you a two-week free trial but you can convert any video and rip any part(s) of DVDs you want. Even the whole film
it costs around $25.00 i believe, but i don't know what that is in £s.

Importing DVD Movies into iMovie with anything OTHER than a camcorder

I tried to look around the discussion board for my questions but 643 pages is a lot. This question has probably been asked 8,000,000 times but I will be 8,000,001.
I recorded some video footage on to a DVD-R disc. I tried to insert this disc into my Mac Mini and I cannot import the video footage into iMovie. I called Apple Support and they told me that once its in a format where other DVD devices can read it, I cannot import it into any Apple Software.
My question is, how can I use my DVD footage in iMovie? Is there additional software that I need to buy? (SUCH AS:)
* DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
* Apple mpeg2 plugin (20$) + Streamclip (free)
* Cinematize >60$
* Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
* Toast6/7 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
* connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter
I have no idea what these programs do and I would appreciate it if someone can direct me to the correct one if one of these can help.
Can I convert this footage into some sort of file (Quicktime or something) that will be accepted in iMovie?
If this question was asked already (which i am sure it has) please direct me to the link where I can get my questions answered. Thanks.

Hello CreoleGQ,
the software Karsten's post points you to is meant to convert MPEG-2 (DVD) video to DV format (iMovie compatible).
I recommend you start reading here:

Importing DVD movies?

Is it possible to import movies on a DVD into itunes so they can be transferred onto my ipod?

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Remember not to copy something that you don't own the copy-right to.
Handbrake (link)converts DVDs to mp4/H264 files.

How can play one of my DVD movies on my ipad?

How can I play DVD moviesv on my iPad 2-16 GB WI-FI ??? I Am not too computer savvy:(

The easiest way would be to buy iTunes copies. Or subscribe to Netflix or other streaming service.
Converting commercial DVDs to the MP4's that the iPad will play requires a person to crack the copy protection encoding. And since that act is illegal in many parts of the world, no one here can tell you how to do it.
Now if you have a homemade dvd, something not protected, you can look into a program like Handbrake to convert the formats

Are you allowed to import a DVD movies onto iTunes?

Are you allowed to import DVD movies (eg: Batman Begins, Spider Man,...) onto iTunes now that it has the "Videos" Source?

Thirty days from the time of rental, or 24(USA)/48 hours from the time it's first played, whichever comes first.

Is it possible to download purchased DVD movies into my computer?

Looking to import DVD movies into computer and then into my IPOD? Is this possible? If so, how can I do it?

Looking to import DVD movies into computer and then
into my IPOD? Is this possible? If so, how can I do
it?
Yes you can. You will need a couple of programs. First you will need a program to put the dvd on your computer. Decrypter works well for that. google it and you will find plenty of sites to download it.
Then you will need a program that will convert it to the right format for your ipod. There are several programs out there that will do this. I use this one http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-win.html
both the programs that I gave you are free and do work quite well. There are pay programs that convert them in on step, I heard they are faster, but have not tried them. I do know the two that I recomended to you work very well and I have not had a problem with either one. Hope this helps.

1. Insert your DVD.
2. Open Disk Utilities (Application> Utilities> Disk Utilities). Highlight your DVD and press "New Image" on the upper toolbar.
3. Choose the location you would like to save your DVD from the drop down menu, "Desktop" is usually the best choice. Then click Save.
4. When finished, your DVD icon will appear on the desktop with the .dmg extension.
5. With iMovie open, double-click the .dmg file you created to mount it. The iMovie import window will then appear asking you to choose. Click Import All and wait for the Import to complete.

How do i import my movie and dvds from my computer onto itunes. it not importing

How do i import my movie files from my computer onto itunes? its not importing when i go to file and import files.

If you backed the library up by drag-copying it, drag-copy it to the same location on the new computer. If you backed up an entire iTunes library, you can also drag it to any location, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down, and specify it.
If you used a backup product, check that product’s documentation.
The song files must be located on the computer’s internal drive for them to play without the external one connected. If needed, organize the library in iTunes.

How to import 150 .mov (quicktime) clips into iMovie '11?

Hello,
Newbie to iMovie and having some trouble. My wedding videographer took off with my wedding footage (and the footage of 100 other couples.) Through the police and some of my own detective work, I was able to seize my wedding footage and have it on an external hard drive. I have already spent thousands of dollars trying to recoup my footage and now that I finally have it, I don't have the extra money to have it made into an actual movie/dvd.
All of the more than 150 clips are in .mov format and I am unable to import them into iMovie that way. Any ideas on how to convert that many HD clips into a file that iMovie will recognize without losing video quality & sound?
For tech info:
iMac 10.8.3
iMovie '11
Clip Info:
Dimensions: 1920x1080
Codecs: H.264, Linear PCM
Color Profile: 1-1-6
Audio Channels: 2
Thanks for your help! This community is a great amazing resource and I appreciate anyone who takes the time to offer suggestions.
Katie

I did it! I realized after 2 hours of it not working, that I was doing it 1 step wrong. I was trying to import the actual file with all the clips, rather than just the clips themselves... Silly error, and the import of .mov files into iMovie was seemelss.. Quality is great and didn't take long. Thanks again.
