Importing DVD to Ipod

I am trying to import a musical dvd to my Ipod nano but the disk is not recognized in Itunes

Unfortunately, in order to copy a commercial DVD, you would need to break the encryption, a process which is illegal in the U.S. and other countries. Because it's illegal, the Terms of Use for these forums prohibit us from discussing methods. Sorry.

  • How can i import dvd to ipod?

    import dvd to ipod

    Sorry, but if you're referring to commercial and hence copy-protected DVDs, breaking the copy protection, which would be necessary to copy the videos from the DVD and convert them, is illegal in the US (and other countries), so we're not allowed to discuss it here.
    If these are home movies that you or someone has burned to DVD and hence are not copy-protected, Handbrake (freeware) is one of the more popular converters. Once converted, you just drag the movie into the iTunes window on your computer and you can then sync it to your iPod.
    If you're not referring to a video DVD, let us know what these disks are and what's on them and we can probably offer suggestions.
    Regards.

  • How to import dvds to ipod video

    i have just learned that it is possible to import your own dvds and watch them on the ipod video. what 3rd party software do i need, and what are the steps i can take to accomplish this?

    thank you

    try this. you could have found the same thing by typing your subject into the search instead of a post.
    you'll get about 2.5 hrs of video play if you manage your battery well.

  • Importing DVD to iPod Touch

    Can anyone tell me how to transfer a DVD to my iPod Touch? I know that you can purchase them at the iTunes store, but I would like to get some movies that I ALREADY PURCHASED on DVD. Thanks in advance....

    First you have to put the DVD onto your computer and then convert it. There are a lot of programs that can be used for this.
    I use DVD Decrypter to put DVDs on my computer and Videora to convert them so I can put them on my iPod.

  • Comparison for iPod Users: Free Online Converter & DVD to iPod Converter

    Compare two channels of obtaining video sources for iPod: one is using online converter, the other is DVD to iPod Converter. After the general introduction of the two methods, I will analyze their advantages and disadvantages for you to choose according to your need.
    Part One: Enjoy YouTube (online videos) on iPod
    Instruction: a useful website to convert online video freely: http://www.vixy.net/
    For vixy, you can just copy the URL of the online video into the “URL” blank of the vixy, then choose the format you want to convert to. Click “Start”. For a short time, the conversion will be finished. You can click the “Download the converted video” to restore the file.
    http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/vixy.jpg
    Advantages: Free online video converter. No software to install. Only a few clicks you can get the converted file after a short while. The most important thing is that online video sources are numerous and original, so you can get the first-hand sources in time through it. Some personal DVs are also shared with you.
    Disadvantages: They set limitation of the length and size of the video. The classical movies usually are not on line available. Even if existed, the quality of image and sound is inferiors.
    Part Two: Enjoy DVD movies on iPod Touch, iPod Nano, iPod Classic, iPhone, iPhone (3G), Apple TV
    We usually bought classical DVD movies for collection or regular watching later, but DVD cannot be copied directly into iPod for us to appreciate it at anytime and anywhere. On this occasion, we need to convert DVD to the format, video and audio settings (Resolution, Bitrate, Frame Rate, etc) supported by your iPod player.
    Instruction: the way to convert DVD to iPod: using Aiseesoft DVD to iPod Converter http://www.aiseesoft.com/dvd-to-ipod-converter.html
    Install and run Aiseesoft DVD to iPod Converter
    http://www.aiseesoft.com/download/dvd-to-ipod-converter.exe
    http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/screen.gif
    Step 1: Click “Load DVD” button to import your DVD
    Step 2: Use “Profile” drop-down list to choose your output format.
    Step 3: Click “Settings” for setting your video parameters.
    At last click “Start” button to start your conversion.
    More tips:
    1. Merge into One File
    If you want to merge the selected contents into one file you can check the "Merge into one file" option. As default the merged file is named after the first selected file (either a title or a chapter)
    2. Movie Effect
    You can set the brightness, contrast, saturation of the video and volume of the audio.
    3. Trim Movie
    It can help you to capture the segment of your movie.
    http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/dvd-to-ipod-thread-trim.jpg
    4. Crop Video
    You can remove black edge of your DVD movie and get any playing area of the video by using its "Crop Mode" function. You can also select "Zoom Mode" to extrude your video slightly to adjust to your portable devices so you can get the best video quality.
    http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/dvd-to-ipod-thread-crop.jpg
    5. Take Snapshot
    It allows you to capture your favorite pictures from your movie.
    Advantages: In this way, you can make full use of your DVD: not only in DVD player, but your iPod player. The function of effecting and trimming allows you to clip the segment of the DVD movies complying with your will. You can enjoy more movies taking full advantage of your spare time while relaxing or traveling.
    Disadvantages: DVD movies are usually popular, lacking of individualization. You can not share others' DVs.
    With these two ways, we can enjoy the pleasure videos bring to us as much as we like. Have fun!

    Depending on what update your iPod is, you may need
    to dowload YAMB to make sure the videos play well on
    your iPod. If you are watching a converted video on
    your iPod and it freezes suddenly and this problem
    continues, you need to download YAMB and convert the
    files already converted with videora iPod converter
    with YAMB, this will only take a few minutes.
    I hope this helps you out.
    Nope. All that a person with that problem should have to do is just update their iPod firmware to 1.1.1 with the newest updater, as that issue has been resolved in the latest firmware.

  • 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

  • I need help importing dvds

    i am using dvd decryptor to import dvds onto my computer. right now i am trying to import a season of seinfeld. when i import it i only get one episode. i want all of the episodes on the disc to go onto my computer. please tell me how to put all the episodes on the disc on the computer.
    Thanks

    No, there are no instructions by Apple for how to get the library off your iPod and onto the computer.
    You can select the iPod in iTunes then iTunes menu File -> Transfer purcahses. This will copy only iTuns purchssed items in to iTunes.
    It will not transfer other items on your iPod, playlists, ratings, etc.

  • Win users - PQDVD for DVD to iPod works great!

    If you're a Windows user, I can vouch that PQDVD works great for DVD to iPoD creation. The program is dirt simple to use, works flawlessly, and rips the DVD content you want fast. It's also very easy to deal with subtitles, alternate languages, etc.
    It's just a few simple steps to make an iPod video from a DVD with this software:
    1. Insert the DVD.
    2. Choose File > Open DVD.
    3. Click around in the DVD's menu to set up DVD playback as you like. Select langage, subtitles, specific chapter, whatever.
    4. Select a cropping frame for the video from an easy visual menu of 7 different cropping options.
    5. Use the video playback controls to queue up the point at which you want to start recording.
    6. Click the Record button. The movie plays at a fast-forward speed as it records to the .MP4 file.
    7. Click the Stop button when you want to stop recording.
    That's it. Perfect .MP4 ready for import into into iTunes.
    You can demo/buy the product at http://www.pqdvd.com/

    I've been using PSP Movie Creator, which is produced by PQDVD and which seems to have the same core. I purchased this just before they made the iPod Movie Creator public, but that app seems to be again pretty much the same, just with a few aesthetic changes.
    It's been ripping 20-minute shows in about 7 minutes each time, direct from DVD to an iPod-compatible MPEG4 file (although I haven't yet got a new iPod to test it with). Admittedly I have quite a powerful machine, with a 3GHz HyperThreaded P4 and 2GB RAM. It ripped a 1-and-a-half hour-movie in about 52minutes.
    I had no issues with having my registration code provided to me immediately; I paid using PayPal and then the code was displayed on the website straight after the completion of the transaction, as well as being repeated in a follow-up email.
    Sure, you have to pay money for these apps, but having looked at the hodge-podge of multiple freeware applications this certainly seems the most reliable and easy solution. Once the files are output, it's a simple matter to import them into iTunes.
    The only problem I've had is with sometimes the audio and picture not being in sync with one another. When that happens, I just close and re-open the app and rip again. That generally solves the problem, or at least minimises the difference between video and sound.

  • Sync DVDs to iPod touch

    I have loaded some DVDs to iTunes but they don't sync.
    Is this possible?
    What do I do?

    iTunes does not import DVDs so how have you managed to load them into it?
    If they are commercial copy-protected movie DVDs then you can't load them into iTunes for syncing.
    If they are your own home movies recorded onto DVD you need to Google for an "iPod video converter", to get them into a format that iTunes can sync.

  • How to convert video and dvd for iPod

    1. Download, install and run PQ DVD to iPod Video Converter. It can convert from DVD, Tivo, DivX, MPEG, WMV, AVI, RealMedia and many more to iPod Video.
    (PQ DVD to iPod Video Converter Download)
    2. Click "Open ..." button and choose a video file or DVD disc to open. Wait for the movie to start playing in the preview window.
    3. Based on the aspect ration of the video source PQ DVD to iPod Video Converter will choose the best resolution for the output iPod video. Nevertheless you can select a resolution of your choice to stretch/squash the picture. Alternatively, you can choose a Crop Mode to cut unimportant parts of the video (like top/bottom black bars or subtitles).
    You can also adjust the desired quality to reduce the output size of the movie.
    In the preview window you will see what the resulting movie will look like.
    When you have set the desired settings simple click on the "Record it" button to convert the video/DVD.
    Depending on the settings a 60 minutes video is converted on average for 15 minutes.
    4. When the process finishes you can test the recorded video file on your PC using QuickTime to see if it works well.
    Then launch iTunes, add the recorded file into the library and update iPod (under iTunes' File menu). And have a nice time!
    Additional Settings
    1. Video Settings
    Video Frame Rate
    Known as Frame Per Second (FPS). It refers to the number of pictures displayed in 1 second in order to form continuous motions. The default frame rate is 15 fps. You may choose 24fps to get more continuos motions.
    When selecting higher fps, increase the movie quality and size a little. This is because more frames need some amount of additional motion data to be stored.
    Brightness Level
    Increase the level to make video appear brighter on your iPod screen. The default is level 0 (No brightness change from the original video).
    2. Audio Options
    Audio Quality
    There are 6 audio quality modes to choose: 32kbps Mono, 48kbps Mono, 48Kbps Stereo, 64Kbps Stereo, 96Kbps Stereo, 128Kbps Stereo.
    Audio Bitrate (in Kbits per second)
    Audio bitrate refers to how many data storage is allocated to store audio signals. The higher audio
    bitrate, the better audio quality.
    Audio Volume
    You can change output audio volume in "Output Settings" dialog. The default volume level is 5 (original volume).
    Stereo to Mono
    When the output audio is set to Mono, you can choose which stereo channel (of input source) to be copied into the Mono channel (output). It is useful for some video sources (e.g. VCD) which use the left, right channels for different languages or for karaoke.
    3. DVD subtitle(subpicture), language
    It is recommended to use the native DVD menu in the preview panel to set subtitle(subpicture) and language. (Click "DVD menu" button on the right to show native DVD menu in the preview panel) You may also change the subtitle(subpicture), language in the program's Options menu, but there are some DVDs that require the change must be made in the native DVD menu instead of the program's menu.

    hi i have downloaded a free version of PQ DVD to iPod video converter and it seems ok and i was wanted to know if anyone else had it so that i could use the registry code to save me money. I would greatly appreciate this code

    Sounds to me like you're asking for someone else's purchased registration code.
    Using one code for 2 copies of software is illegal.

    I have a 80GB Video Ipod and I'm confused on why when I ripped a dvd using the dvd to ipod converter for mac program it split the dvd into 2 files.. Is there a way I can merge the files together so it is 1 file?.. I would apprciate any help or suggestions...

    It's not a paid for program is it?
    A totally free program that rips and converts DVD's for Macs can be found here: http://handbrake.m0k.org/
    Why would anyone on a Mac pay for a DVD rip program?
