Transferring DVDs to my ipod

Hi i was just wondering could someone please help me. i don't know how to transfer my dvds to my ipod. can it be done? and if so how? much appreciated thanks

Clicking on the add file to library, within the File option of iTunes, should bring up a window to search for the file. If it does not, perhaps you should try rebooting the computer. When the window does popup, you will find the Videora videos under C:\Program Files\VideoraiPodConverter\Videos

  • Transferring DVD movies to iPod w/Video

    I bought the new 60g iPod w/video soley because I thought I could transfer and watch DVD movies (the hollywood kind), onto my iPod the same way I did with music... Can anyone tell me how to do this? I have DVD "One Click DVD" burner software on my PC and when I try to import into iTunes it's not recognizing the file. Can anyone help me out with this???!!!
    Also, anyone know when they will release a decent case, the one that came with it is pretty lame!

    Sorry, Jeff, but commercial video DVDs are copy-protected. Breaking the copy protection is illegal in the US, so discussing ways of doing it are not allowed here (since the US courts have been holding in some cases that even discussing in print such cracking may be illegal). If you're outside the US where such de-encryption is legal (though it's up to you to make sure that your use of the material is legal), search around the net and you'll find places that can provide tools for de-encrypting the files for use.

  • Transferring DVDs to the iPod

    I have two DVDs (concerts) that I want to get onto my new iPod. My first attempt indicated that you could use Quicktime Pro to move videos to your iPod. However, now I'm finding that it may not be the case since these are "commercial" DVDs - which Quicktime doesn't seem to support.
    Is there any way to take a commercially purchased DVD and transfer it to your iPod using Quicktime (or anything else for that matter)?
    Thanks.

    I cant believe there are still people out there who believe that Quicktime can rip DVD and transfer to iPod. When the G5 iPod first came out, I was thinking the same thing and wasted 30 bucks on Quicktime Pro 7 which does no s* at all. And I went to this forum, I found the products that people passing around that actually work. The first one is called DVD Decrypter for ripping DVDs. And the second one is Videora iPod Converter which is for converting the ripped files into appropriate ones in order to play on your iPod. But the bad thing is, I couldnt find the website that offer those two products (sorry). Maybe you should look around the forum for a while. Or try on download.com.

  • DVD transfer to iPod 5G?

    I am trying to take my favorite exercise DVD to Ireland with me in March and was wondering if I could transfer it to an 5G and then use the AV connector to view it on a TV there, since the different regional cold won't allow me to play the DVD itself over there. I'm trying to avoid taking my laptop, as I came back with a ding the last time I tried that.
    Thanks

    I use Handbrake Lite to help in transferring DVDs to my iPod. Plus MTR would help you make a DVD for use over there.

  • 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.

  • Transfering DVD to iPOD using quicktime

    I recently purchased Quick time and cant figure out how to get a dvd on my iPOD using quick time. I know its possible but I dont think that the instuctions are dummy proof. Ive tryed new and old DVDs with no help. Please help me

    QT will not read DVD vob files unless you pay for the
    Apple mpeg2playbackcomponent- $20 from Apple. Even
    then there are a number of limitations you should
    check out before purchase. Most notable is that even
    with the component it will not read encrypted
    Hollywood movie DVDs. Here is a link for the mpeg2
    FAQ:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/faq.html
    It also will not export the sound from mpeg2 files,
    although the Windows XP version of this freeware may
    help if you have the Apple component: Mpeg StreamClip
    So in other words, Quicktime was a waste of money without purchasing this other software that you are talking about? What am I supposed to do with Quicktime? It wont work for any movies?

  • Is there a way to transfer DVDs to itunes/ipod?

    im trying to transfer my Michael Jackson's Visions dvd to my ipod touch. i know you can buy it in itunes, but i don't want to rebuy the movie just so it can be put on my ipod touch. i wanted to see if the imovies app would work but it seems to just be for mac.

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • Mac programs for transferring video to an iPod

    Hello everyone, first time poster
    I just have a couple questions about iPod video. Sorry if I'm creating another thread about getting videos on it, but my questions just have not been fully answered in the other threads.
    First off, I'm running Mac OS X version 10.4.3 on a 1.42 GHz eMac. So any programs that are suggested to me that run only on Windows or only show system requirements of Windows are of no use to me.
    Now here are my questions.
    1. How do I get videos on an iPod from a personal DVD? (i.e. movies I created on a single-write disc/re-writeable disc)
    2. How do I get videos on an iPod from a commercially sold DVD? (i.e. any regular DVD you buy at Best Buy, etc.)
    3. What format does the video need to be to get onto the iPod?
    4. What is the best program, free or not, in transferring video to an iPod?
    5. What is the best FREE program in transferring video to an iPod?
    6. Can I download video from a file sharing program (who will remain nameless) then transfer that video to an iPod?
    7. Can I change the format name of a video file that may not play on an iPod (say .wmv a file) to a format name that WILL play on an iPod (I assume it's .mpeg-4)?
    8. How do I transfer video from iMovie to an iPod?
    9. If I buy my iPod at a regular Apple Store (not the online store), get the AppleCare Protection Plan for it, and if a problem arises with the iPod and I take it to the store for support, will I not be serviced based on the content of my iPod?
    Again, sorry if these questions have already been asked and answered, but I just feel better that my own personal questions have been answered, and I don't have to tag on other questions to a different thread.

    1. Handbrake
    2. Handbrake
    3. From the iPod tech specs:
    "H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats"
    4. iTunes
    5. iTunes
    6. Yes, assuming you convert it first to a supported format. Use iSquint.
    7. You can't just change the file extension, you have to actually convert it. Use iSquint
    8. export a quicktime movie, then use either Quicktime Pro or iSquint to convert it.
    9. No. The content of your iPod will have no bearing on service (unless you install iPodLinux on it, which voids your warranty).

  • DVD movies to iPod video format

    I often travell on official business, I am trying to rip a DVD to my ipod. My friend told me that Sothink ipod- converter can convert DVD movies to IPod video format. I have downloaded and try it,I think the Sothink IPod Video Converter is designed to be an easy company for my IPod.

    If you want a really organized package for ripping your dvds into .mp4 "ipod" format use the dvd Decrypter and Videora ipod conveter. They are very organized and they put you in control of the video/audio settings... And it couldn't be easier. Here are the links if you wanna give these FREE programs a shot
    Videora ipod converter - http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/
    Dvd Decrypter - http://www.mrbass.org/dvdrip/
    ps... You need both because after ripping your dvd it becomes a .vob file..Ipod cannot read this so you must use videora to make it an .mp4 "ipod friendly" format.. Reply if problems occur please!!! Thanks...

  • Even with ipod rip, trouble transferring music from Win-IPOD to Mac-Itunes

    New Macbook (recent convert). Windows formatted IPOD. Bought IPOD-Rip. Plugged in ipod holding down Apple+Option so no accidents. Said IPOD RIP didn't recognize any music on IPOD, but did I want to do "hard recover" Yes. So--it then transferred entire contents of IPOD to Mac desktop. There it sits in all its glory. But my Mac Itunes doesn't recognize it, I THINK because it is Windows formatting. How do I get these songs into my Mac Itunes? While transfers are commonly discussed here, I don't think I've seen this particular problem?

    Thanks so much! Seems to have basically worked. But didn't import the playlists...I'm sort of assuming that given everything else peculiar to my situation, that there's nothing I can do about that?

  • Getting TV show DVDs on my ipod

    I have a problem getting my tv show dvds on my ipod, i can get regular movies to play, but not multiple shows, it picks one show and only loads it instead of the whole disk? can anyone help? I use the Videora converter and dvd decrypter.

    welcome to the board dude and congrats on gettin your ipod.
    the answer is simple. Create a play list of your favorite tv show. For example: Put all your episode of "lost" or what ever show you watch into a list and load that list on the ipod and it'll continuiosly play the videos on that list till its finished.
    hope that helps

  • Help! I want to trasnfer my DVDs to my ipod video.

    Why is no info out there ont hsi topic. APple introduces a video iPod and I cant for th elife of me figure out how to get a plain old DVD onto my iPod.
    Can anyone explain this in English for me? Dont get fancy with too many jargon words.
    Thanks. Basic user here.

    This is the iMovie discussion. iMovie is a Mac only video editing application, so you won't find many Windows users here. Try the iPod for Windows discussion instead.
