Ripping a dvd to play on an ipad / iphone / appletv / ipod touch
this will show you how to turn your dvd movie into a playable file for an ipad, apple tv2, ipod touch or iphone
- download and install handbreak
- open up handbreak
- insert your dvd
- in handbreak click ‘source’
- select your dvd
- click ‘toggle presets’ to show the pre-set settings
- pick the one that you need, eg, I picked ‘iphone and ipod touch’
- pick a destination to save the file to
- click ‘start’
- wait for it to convert.
- drag the file into itunes
- sync like normal if you are putting it on an iphone / ipad / ipod touch
if you are playing the video on an apple tv you will need to share your itunes library [please see this post for more information on how to get all your movies to play on your apple tv]
