Step 1: Add videos, load Blu-ray and DVD files

Click “Add Video” to import video files to this program, and click “Load DVD” to input Blu-ray and DVD movies. Totally, there are four ways to load DVD, namely “Load DVD ROM”, “Load DVD Folder”, “Load Blu-ray Folder” and “Load ISO/IFO”.

Step 2: Select output format for iPhone, and specify save path

Click the drop-down list of “Format” to select a format for your iPhone from “iPhone Video”. At the same time, click the folder icon at the end of “Output” to specify where to locate the output files, otherwise, the program will export the output files to the save path set by default.

Step 3: Adjust video and audio parameters

Click “Settings” button, and then you will be able to adjust video and audio parameters like codec name, aspect ratio, bit rate, sample rate, etc. on the window as below. To optimize the output file quality, the larger input values are suggested, but you should also notice that the output file size will be enlarged at the same time. That means you’d better make a balance between file quality and file size. If you are not familiar with this, you can totally skip this step, because the default settings can basically meet your watching needs on iPhone.

Step 4: Start conversion

After all the above steps are completed, you can now click “Convert” button to start conversion. All the conversion info including conversion progress, time elapsed, time left, generated file size as well as estimated file size are all listed in the ripping window as below. In that way you can make good control of the conversion time and the space of your storage disk.

Once the conversion is done, the output files can be found via clicking on “Open” button. After that, just sync them to your iPhone with iTunes. Good luck.

To play Blu-ray ISO backups on your WD TV Live, one thing you should know is that WD TV Live can well play ISO files from a USB drive, while network shares do have problems actually.

In order to get an ISO backup, what’s your workflow? As all I know, some people use tsMuxeR to back up the Blu-ray disc, and then converted it into an ISO using Daemon Tools. Personally, I use Pavtube Blu-ray Copy to make ISO backups for my Blu-ray discs.

or http://en.wikipedia.org/ can help you !

Within several clicks, this program can finish its task, and enables you to get an ISO image file. What you should do is just loading your BD files via “Source” option, and then choose “Image File (*.ISO)” from the pull down menu of “Target” to specify the destination folder. BTW, you’d better indicate your USB drive as the save path, or you need spend time to copy the ISO image to your USB drive repeatedly. Once the two steps finished, the backup process will begin, and then you just need wait for the resulted ISO files for your WD TV Live.

As long as copying task is completed, plug the USB into your WD TV, and connect it to your HDTV via HDMI cable, what you should do next is enjoying your BD movies on your widescreen TV leisurely.

One more thing I should mention is that some users have problems to play Blu-ray ISO files via their WD TV, but DVD ISO is working well. Not clear about the accurate reason, but another solution can be recommended. Since WD TV is able to beautifully playback HD MKV files up to Full HD 1080p, thus we just need a utility to convert BD files to HD MKV, and then everything will be OK. Because of the Blu-ray copyright issues, some discs are highly protected, we must take advantage of a powerful application to do so. In that case, the following Blu-ray ripper is suggested, it is able to remove nearly all kinds of BD protections, including BD+, AACS, and even MKB Version > 10 is supported as well.

This Blu-ray ripper allows users exporting “MKV HD Video (*.mkv)” format, and also enables users to reset audio and video parameters via clicking “Settings” button. You can set the resolution at 1920*1080 to remain 1080p quality of your Blu-ray movies, as well as keep 5.1 channel of the original surround sound. All in all, all the parameters like bit rate, codec name, frame rate, sample rate are all changeable in the following interface.

After your preferred settings for your WD TV have been set well, just click “Convert” button to start conversion. Once finished, you can watch them on your TV via WD TV with ease, and the high quality of the Blu-ray movie has never been changed at all.

Is this helpful? Hope it is.

To convert HD camcorder clips and other videos to a format that can be played on an iPod, iPhone, Apple TV and shared on the web, some Mac users have purchased the not cheap Elgato Turbo.264 HD Video Encoder to realize their format conversion goals. Turbo.264 HD is not only an encoder, but also an accelerator to convert all popular video formats (including HD camcorder video) to a high-quality H.264 file in standard or HD resolutions. It is incredibly fast and comes with an easy-to-use software application.

Everything seems good, but when it comes to deal with copy-protected DVDs, it usually gives users CSS errors, because it can only convert DVDs that are not copy-protected. Aside from the copyright issues, according to some users’ review, Turbo.264 HD has one worse problem that sometimes the exported files are all out of sync. We can have a look at some reviews on this point together. Written by PF from Ventura, 5-Nov-2009: “This product is a joke … most of the files generated using this product have audio that is completely out of sync and are unwatchable”; Written by AM from San Jose, 16-Nov-2009: “This product does exactly what it says on the box; it makes Apple TV format movies in a very short time. The issue is they’re unwatchable. I’ve ripped 15 movies in the last 10 hours, and not one of them has the audio in sync with the image.”

Well, how to fix the two problems? At this time, change your eyes on another affordable program would be a better choice. Absolutely, Pavtube DVD Ripper for Mac is for you to give solutions to the two problems.

1. Run Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper and click “DVD Rom”, “DVD Folder” or “IFO/ISO” to load Blu-ray movies. Generally speaking, the file with the longest duration time would be the main movie, if you just need back up the main movie, tick off this one only.

Each file will be checked by default after imported, right click on any one of the files, and then there will be a popup window to let you uncheck all, just do it, and afterwards to tick off the checkbox before the file you need converted.

2. Click on the drop-down menus after “Subtitle” and “Audio” respectively to select your required languages and sound effect.

Then use ReJig to do DVD authoring.

It’s pretty simple with ReJig. Press “File Mode”; add your vob files and Demux.

When it’s finished, close that box and then select DVD Author. Add the video and audio files you’ve just created, and choose output destination folder, and click Create.

After DVD authoring is completed, you can open the destination folder to see that the output files are AUDIO-TS and VIDEO-TS folders, which are the correct structure for DVD burning.

Part 3:

Use ImgBurn to burn DVD

We have got VIDEO-TS folder in part two, so the DVD burning process with ImgBurn is pretty simple. Here give you two links to check the detailed steps:

In my article here, I’d like to take Pavtube Blu-ray Copy for example to show you how to directly copy or burn Blu-ray and DVD movies via it in detail. If you are looking for such a solution right now, you can feel free to move on with the following paragraphs.

Additional tips:
