Uploading DVD from laptop to iPod Video

I have a wonderful music video I'd like to put on my iPod, but can't seem to figure out how to do that from the cd-drive on my laptop.
If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it. Yes, I've checked the manual....can't seem to figure out what to do.
Thanks.

If it's a commercial DVD, sadly, the Terms of Use for these forums prohibit us from discussing methods of cracking the encryption which would be required in order to copy it.
If it is a non-commercial, non-encrypted DVD, you should check out your favorite download site (e.g. versiontracker.com) for video converters appropriate to your operating system.
Just one note, in your post, you mentioned that you have a CD drive in your laptop. If it's only a CD drive, you're not going to be able to do anything with a DVD. Is it, perhaps, a CD/DVD drive?

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

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

How do I transfer legally Owned DVD's to my iPod Video?

I got a new iPod Video for christmas and I want to know how to take my own personal DVD's and transfer them to my iPod. I've read lots of threads about this subject but I haven't been successful in transfering anything. I downloaded Videora and DVDFab Decrypter but I don't know how to use them. I also found a lot of feedback saying that it would be illegal to transfer DVD's to the iPod and all I can say to that is, that's absolutely ridiculous. I bought the DVD's legally and should be able to transfer them. I paid for them and I don't plan on selling them to anyone else so explain to me what's illegal about it. I think that preventing us from transfering DVD's is just another way for Apple to make money. Eventually they'll come out with a Movie library in iTunes that you'll have to pay for, they already have music videos and tv shows. The other thing that really ****** me off is that in no way do they make clear that you're not allowed to transfer DVD's to your iPod. I think that a lot of people assumed along with me that you can transfer any movies you wanted to the iPod without a problem and the fact that you can't is a serious question in my mind as to whether or not Apple has committed fals advertising. Apple products are already priced much higher than they should be and I feel that this is just another way for them to make money. Sorry I needed to rant. Can anyone help me transfer my DVD's to my iPod? Or direct me towards some other 3rd party programs that might work easier?

"Why would anyone want to stare at that little screen for 2+ hours... I dont think apple false advertised at ALL...
Watching a movie would just kill your battery and waste a lot of space on your iPod which was first intended for music..
Pretty common sense if you ask me."
whowhat I think that a lot of people want to watch movies on the new iPod otherwise the software that transfer DVD's to iPod's wouldn't exist. And I'm sorry but what is the point of making an iPod video if you can't watch movies on it? so that you can watch a music video for 3 minutes? or your choice of 5 tv shows or however many there are? I don't think so. I just feel that if I pay $400 for a new iPod and I spend $20 on a movie, I shouldn't have to pay an extra $30 just so I can get the software that puts DVD's onto my iPod. Obviously if I'm at home I'm not going to sit and stare at the iPod but the whole point of an iPod is that you can have all your music and all your videos on the go when you're on a plane or a train or a long car ride. I just think it's bull **** the way apple does business making everything overpriced and all I'm saying is that when I bought the new iPod I expected that I would be able to put my own movies onto the iPod. And even though when you buy a DVD you're buying the right to view it, not the rights to it, all I would be doing is viewing it on my iPod, how is that wrong?

How Do You Get Your DVD's onto the iPod Video?

Is there a way to transfer my movies onto the iPod video? Will I need to buy the Quick Time Pro and then convert the video to mp4? Will that even work?
Anyone put their movies on the iPod and can share?
Thanks.

yall are all going the wrong way.
there's 2 pieces of software you'll need (they're free!!!):
nero recode 2 CE
DVD decrypter (probably hard to find on the internet now)
use DVD decrypter to rip the DVD (here's a link for instructions but forget about the videora part, videora is slow http://www.duke.edu/~ds53/ipodguide.htm)
after u get the VOB files from DVD decrypter, use nero recode to convert (it says burn in the program) the video to an mpeg-4 video. you'll need to tweak the settings a bit:
set the size: select video thent he resize tab and enter 320 for the width and 240 for the height and hit OK. make sure that "Fit to target is not checked. press next
under burn options, choose where u want to save the video file. under nero digital settings, check the expert mode box and look for the encoding method setting. choose 2-pass. next, under advanced, ensure that the "simple Profile" box is checked.
press burn and just add it to ur itunes library like it'a a song.
whew.
i got these steps from a book btw. if you want to know the name and the details of the book, send me an email ([email protected])
hope this helped (probably will, i have 7 full-length movies on my ipod right now) in case your wondering, the movies are: the fast and the furious, 2 fast 2 furious, fantastic 4, school of rock, spiderman, spiderman 2 and, finally, I,Robot

TRANSFER PHOTOS FROM CAMERA TO IPOD VIDEO

Does anyone know if there is a device that is compatible with iPod 80gb Video, to enable the use of the iPod Video as a hard drive to capture photos (files) directly from the camera. I have a Sony A100 DSLR. Going on a trip and would like to use the disk space available on my iPod. Belkin has one that is only for 3rd Generation iPods.

I'm having a similar issue. You can find compatible cameras and info http://www.apple.com/ipod/compatibility/cameraconnector.html/
and check the online manual for your iPod. Section 4
You might have to contact Sony to see if it's compatible. I bought a connector (from the Apple Store) iPod to USB that connects with my camera's dock (I have a Casio Exilim 850) but I can't get it to work with either of my two card readers, even though it says in the manual that it will. If you know which card readers are compatible PLEASE let me know.
Good luck

How do I create a DVD from my iPad2 recorded videos

I have recorded several of my kid's basketball games this summer. I have had parents ask if I can make a dvd of those games to share with the other families. My PC (runnings Windows Vista) does have a DVD burner. I have been able to sync my pics through ITunes, but never videos. Also, can I burn a dvd of my videos from ITunes? I've spent the last several days searching on "how to" but haven't found anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In addition to the DVD burner you'll also need software that is capable of authoring DVDs.
I'm not a Windows person, but I believe Vista comes with an app called Windows DVD Maker.
You might have more success finding people knowledable with it use at Microsofts support site.

Cant upload songs from itunes to ipod!!!

I am trying to upload music from my itunes to my ipod and itunes recognizes the ipod and says it is syncing my songs but when it says it is done syncing and i properly eject... the ipod says i have NO music on it but my itunes says i have 1362 songs in my library but none them are on the ipod.. and the ipod says it is full with other "stuff"..... HELP PLEASE!!!!!

Are you dragging from within the iTunes interface? Set to Auto Sync and select some of your Play Lists and see how that works.
You cannot drag tunes to the iPod via the Finder and play those tunes. If dragging via the Finder you will be using your iPod as a HD to move files to another comuter etc.

Need to make a simple dvd from Habitat for Humanity video

Hi,
I work for a local habitat for humanity affilate.
We are having our local fundraiser and I want to use 2 parts off the Habitat for Humanity's international video that they sent us...While I can just use their video I thought it would be nicer if I just had the 2 clips I needed on a separate dvd.
How do I go about this??
Thanks, Laura

The source is a dvd.
I need to take parts of the dvd off-and put them on a fresh dvd.
I may need a slideshow in the middle somewhere.
For instance the finished dvd will have 3 chapters, one video, one slideshow
then one more video.
so, step 1 is to convert the DVD content into something editable..
depending on your version of iMovie, you have diff. options.
esp. for converting just parts, Mpeg Streamclip plus the mp2 playback component (apple.com/quicktime, 20$) is the most recommended tool
chapters usually mean 'bookmarks' in a movie..
I would create 3 buttons in iDVD, to jump to each part indiviually ..
allthough, you can produce a solid movie, with converted part1, slides, part2..
all that is editing.. iDVD, as said is for encoding disks from movies ..
