Ripping DVD's to iPhone 4.......

I am fairly new to ripping DVD's and was suggested to use Handbrake software. I figured out Handbrake currently is not compatible with iPhone 4 (looks like some mods need to be done to some folder files to do this). I recently tried Daniusoft and it's one you have to pay for, but I tried the free trial and it has a stupid watermark on the whole video. Also the converted file was 1.7Gb. To me that seems huge for a converted file for my iPhone. I am hoping to find free software and know that I might forfeit qualty for this. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Can't really help you with software but I will say that the file size for the movie doesn't sound huge. I just checked the sizes of the digital download movies I have that were "free" with the purchase of Blu-Ray/DVD combo packs and they are in that range. One specific movie (Sherlock Holmes) is 1.79 GB and 128 mins long.

While ripping DVDs to my computer for playback in itunes, ipod, iphone, and apple tv, is there any way to rip a single copy that is supported by the previous devices?

My current problem is that when I rip a DVD to an iphone/ipod touch format with my ripping software, I have to convert the file to one supported by apple tv when I want to play the movie in apple tv. To clarify, I wish to rip the DVD once, with no file conversion in itunes, for playback and transfer to iphone/ipod touch and apple tv. I assume there is way to this by altering the ripping settings, perhaps trying 600-900 kps per second. I hope that there is a way to rip a DVD that can be played in the iphone and apple tv. Thanks in advance!

No. Have you tried:

dvd ripper for mac

Thanks! But when I visit the site recently, I found the program was upgraded. Now it has 2 optimized output formats specially made for iPod 30G and 60G players! Thus it is easier and more convenient to use without complex settings as other software. Try it at http://www.imtoo.com/downloads/dvd-to-ipod.converter.exe
Another good news: there was a new discount suite ImTOO DVD to iPod Suitethat contains both the DVD to iPod Converter and iPod Movie Converter. It saves newly $20! Hope this can do some help

Ripping DVDs to iPhone

I have just read a couple of posts where some people are getting on their high horse about the fact that ripping DVDs is illegal in the US and therefore cannot be discussed on these forums.
I would like to remind everybody that these forums are available world-wide and that ripping DVDs for your own viewing pleasure is not illegal everywhere in the world.
My American cousins, chill out!
Do you think that it is right for the USA to impose it's laws upon the rest of us? I do not, as we did not have the opportunity to vote upon this matter, nor did we vote for the lawmakers who made such a preposterous law. Do not forget, you guys tipped all our tea in the harbour to fight such injustices!

Sorry, but Apple explicitly prohibits discussions about ripping DVDs here in their forums:
"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."
Though the forums are read by people world-wide, the content is governed by US law and the US courts have in some cases ruled that even posting about breaking copy protection is a violation of the law. So while US law cannot and should not apply to you, it does apply to these forums. And regardless, it's Apple's system and they can make whatever rules they want.
The bottom line: discussions about ripping DVDs is not allowed here. If you can't or don't wish to abide by those terms, don't participate. There are plenty of other forums that either aren't based in the US or are (usually because they're not run by a major corporation that would get the content owners after them) willing to risk such discussions.

Can I watch a DVD on my iPhone?

Is there any legal way for me to watch a DVD on my iPhone? My workouts are on DVD, and it would be much easier to bring my iPhone to the gym than my macbook.
Thanks,
Jaws

If the DVDs are protected, then you can't legally rip them. Otherwise you have to rip the DVD, convert it to iPhone format, send to iTunes and sync.

Copying DVDs & putting on iPhone

Im not sure if this is where to post, but I am new to the iPhone (getting it tomorrow) .. I have some Disney DVDs I own and I was wondering how do I get them put on my computer then on my iPhone. I own the original DVD disk, not an illegal copy. Can anyone help me on how to get my DVD movies put on my soon to be iPhone? I would greatly appreciate any help

As previously stated, from the terms of use of this forum:

DVD movies in iPhone

i'm ready to buy my iPhone. But I 'd like to know if it is possible to download a movie from a DVD
to the iPhone, so that I can watch it when and where I want. This DVD is a documentary not available
in iTunes or anywhere else.
So I'd have to somehow get into the iPhone, can someone tell me how this is done?
I've never owned an iPod so I have no clue.
Thank you.

Sorry, but we're not allowed to discuss the ripping of commercial, and hence copy-protected, DVDs in the Discussions forum since breaking the copy protection is illegal in the US.

How to rip dvd's with newest MacBook Pro?

Hi, what is the best application to rip dvd's (with the latest MacBook Pro)? I want to save them and then edit in iMovie.
I've seen that Handbrake isn't suitable for 10.8.2 anymore.
Thanks!!

I have seen a couple of posts about this, but they all seem to go in a different direction. The general theme of the problem is Handbrake not working on Mountain Lion but working on Snow Leopard.
Ever since I installed Mountain Lion on an external drive, I basically haven't been able to have Handbrake properly run. Using a disc as a source, it has wavered between stopping early with only about 5-10 minutes encoded to taking the full amount of time but only resulting in a short clip or a couple of short clips.
I think it has only worked once or twice total.
Since I still have Snow Leopard installed on my iMac original drive, I will often go back to that install and test HB and 99.99% of the time, it works without a hitch, thus giving me no other choice to believe it is something with ML or the HB install on ML at least.

How to rip DVD?

Ripping Dvd's

I am trying to use my new ipod and i was wondering does Super DVD to Ipod Converter,rip dvds to your computer and then convert them so itunes can use it? Please answer this somebody who know this!!!
Windows XP

I tries Super DVD-iPod Converter, but with the DVDs I tried (Lion King and Fight Club) it didn't work. As far as I know, these DVDs needed to be Decrypted first. When I tried so, I didn't have sound with Super DVD-iPod Converter.
Cucusoft's converter immediately worked: it ripped the DVD and converted it all at once.
For me it's the best alternative!
Let me suggest you download trials of both programs (just Google both converters and add "free download". You'll find plenty of sites!). When you do so, REMEMBER those are Trial Versions. This implies that texts like "Trial Version" spoil your picture! You have to buy it to remove the texts. However, the trials are good for testing though! (Unless you want to convert complete DVDS in Trial, try to not fully convert the film, but Abort after a couple of minutes. At least Cucusoft's converter provides the opportunity to watch that couple of converted minute!)
Good luck!

Ripping DVD's ready for iPod - Help Needed!!

Hi All
I have been using Handbrake to rip my DVD's and for some reason it has stopped working now..
It goes through the process of encoding the files, all the settings are correct and I have noted the saved directory (even changed it a couple of times), and when it completes 100% there is no file to be found anywhere......
I have posted a note on the handbrake forum but got no reply yet.
Does anybody know what the problem may be?
Also, does anybody know of an application that will rip DVD's so that they are iPod ready, or maybe into MPG/MPEG/AVi format.
Many thanks
Garry

It goes through the process of encoding the files, all the settings are correct and I have noted the saved directory (even changed it a couple of times), and when it completes 100% there is no file to be found anywhere.
How long do you wait? Once conversion has completed, the YourFileName.temp file must be rewritten to your desitination location. This can take some seconds, depending on the size of your movie. While we're at it, is the temporary file even being created when conversion begins?
Also, does anybody know of an application that will rip DVD's so that they are iPod ready, or maybe into MPG/MPEG/AVi format.
Ripping/extraction of DVDs can be done by a number of Mac compatible appliations. MacTheRipper (free) is probably one the most popular at the moment. Stripping and/or conversion, however, still requires an ancillary application like MPEG2 Works 4 Advanced ($$) or MPEG StreamClip (free). However, since your were less than specific as to type (stream file, elementary streams, VCD compatible, SVCD compatible, DVD compatible, etc.) of target file desired, I can only generalize. Conversion basically depends on the workflow you utilize. Both applications have some "intrinsic" capabilities but, for the most part, rely on QT, QT Tools, and/or QT components you have installed and available. In addition, both application allow output to what is basically the QT Pro "Movie to QuickTime" export option. This simply means that in addition to the specific formats you mentioned, you also have full access to all of the same target QT formats you could normally access directly from your QT Pro application. (I.e., you can go directly from a VOB file or file segment to any available QT compatible compression format based on QT Pro and installed QT Pro components.)
REMINDER: These alternative compression formats are not iPod compatible.
ADDED: Forty-TwoDVD-VXPlus ($$) will convert ripped/extracted DVD directly to iPod compatible formats.

Ripping dvd's to itunes

Is there any way I can rip dvds to itunes, so that I can put them on my ipod? Please help me.

Not directly, no.
You need to look for third-party applications that can convert DVD audio or video into a format that iTunes can handle.

Ripping DVD's to Watch

I was looking to rip my DVD's to an external hard drive and was wondering if there was anyway for me to use Apple TV to play ripped DVD's? I want to make my entire collection on a hard drive so I can just scroll through and watch DVD's from the hd instead of using the discs anymore. Thanks

No, in most locations you are not legally allowed to copy your protected DVD's, however whether you are are not, the terms of use for these forums forbids the discussion of such things.

Problems Moving Ripped DVD from Itunes to Ipod

Problems Moving Ripped DVD from Itunes to Ipod
I am having a problem transfering ripped DVD's from the Itunes Video folder to the actual Ipod. I thought one of the cool points of the Video Ipod was that you could play DVD's on it. I know I needed to use special software to achieve this since I researched it here. I am using Handbrake Lite since regular Handbrake look too daunting for me. I also used Isquint, since it was recommened here. I used both without changing anything on both of those progams other than click the go button. The DVD's will play in Itunes but it won't allow me to drag them to the Ipod. They are in the Video folder in Itunes. What in the wild, wild world of sports am I do'in wrong? I assume it's something stupid because the device is stellar. Hope someone out there can lend us a hand.
Kind Regards,
Julias
