What formats for iPad for dvd?

I want to convert some dvds to my ipad for the kids.  what format should movies be in on my ipad? AVI? MPEG? OR SVCD?  Which will give good quality but not use up alot of space?

The manual lists the video formats the iPad likes
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
Presuming these are home movies or other non-copyright protected videos, Handbrake works quite well to convert formats. If it's commercial dvd's then you'll need to research elsewhere. No one here is permitted to assist you in breaking the CSS encryption on a commercial DVD.
If you're wanting to get commercial dvd's onto your iPad, an easier way may be to get teh movies from iTunes, then you'll own them and won't have to mess with conversion.

    what format should i burn dvd in to play in blueray player? Using MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake

    MacX DVD Ripper Pro and Handbrake
    Neither is suitable for burning DVDs or BluRay media. They are DVD rippers/converters, not DVD authoring tools.  Handbrake doesn't produce any format suitable for DVD Authoring.   And while MacDVD Ripper can create .mov files even that's not a guarantee the file can be used for DVD authoring.  You need DVD Authoring software like Roxio Toast to burn DVDs or BluRay disks.
    Most BluRay players can play both standard def DVDs and high def BluRay disks.  Which kind do you want to burn?  And what exactly is your source media (video) that you want to burn?
    And if you want to burn BluRay disks, you need a BluRay burner.

  • What Format Is Used for eprint Emails?

    I'm interested in generating eprint jobs from a Linux machine, so I'm wondering what format is used, and how you cope with email gateways which can accomodate messages of limited size.
    Can somebody assist please?
    Regards ..

    Hi Graham,
    Try keeping the email size to less than 5MB for faster printing.

    Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail, Gmail
    Apple Mail (iPhone, iPad, Macbook, Macbook Pro )
    BlackBerry mail client
    Nokia/Symbian client (Nokia)
    What attachments can I send?HP ePrint will print e-mail attachments for the following file types**:

  • What format to use for iDvd.

    Hello and thank you for reading.
    I am currently saving home videos onto my hard drive as .dv files via iMovie events. I am also using iMovie to cut these files however I see fitting.
    I am trying to find a format to convert these files so that it will provide clarity once they are burned onto a dvd (via iDvd) and will not be an overwhelming size (each hour of .dv footage is about 12 gb). Thanks for the help.

    As Klaus says, .dv is excellent for bringing into iDVD for creating DVDs. In terms of storage for any future editing, highlights, compilations, etc. you can:
    * send your video back out to tape (full resolution storage, but flattens titles and transitions into the video; need a tape reader in the future)
    * retrieve the desired video from the DVDs or disc image (mpeg-2 format is fine for viewing, but it's tossing lots of content; eg, at 12 gigs per hour in .dv format, it's about 4 gigs when compressed into mpeg-2 format. The format conversion tools keep getting better, but that's a big gap to overcome).
    * use large hard drives to store .dv format files (storage keeps getting cheaper and I like the flexibility of this option since the video is relatively uncompressed).
    Personally, I keep the original files and a virtual DVD (disc image) so I can easily make another DVD for someone (from the disc image) or I can jump back into the details of that project.

  • What format's best for burning iDVD project?

    I have a two hour documentary I'm hoping to burn in iDVD.
    Using Quicktime Pro and/or Mediaclip I created files in these formats: .dv, m4v, mov.
    Given the length of the film, what format file should I import into my iDVD project?
    Thanks very much.
    Bohdan

    First recommendation is to not exceed 2 hours of QuickTime playback (120 mins) for SL media (and twice that for DL). It's actually smart to keep it a few mins. shy of the stated duration/s.
    Secondly, here are the files which work best:

  • On windows 7 what format on hdd for clean install on mac

  • What format is playable on dvd players in France

    I want to send a home movie to grandma in france but I am confused about what format, NTSC or PAL is used for dvd players in France. Any body know??
    Thanks

    I want to send a home movie to grandma in france but
    I am confused about what format, NTSC or PAL is used
    for dvd players in France. Any body know??
    Thanks
    Getting good quality out of converting NTSC to PAL with the tools we have available is pretty much impossible.
    Since most PAL players also support NTSC,I suggest you try sending her an NTSC DVD to see if she can play it.

  • Is it possible to use an iPhone as a controller for iPad (for games).

    Is it possible to use an iPhone as a controller for iPad?
    And if so what apps are supported.
    And will gta 3, vice city, San Andreas and dead trigger 2 work with it.

    The only game I know of that does this is "The Incident" - it's not a built-in iOS feature. The developers of that game specifically have allowed it.
