Bluray Movie Converter

Among the Blu-ray ripping tools, Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper is favored by most movie lovers for its high success rate of ripping and free switchover of languages and subtitles. It removes BD+ and AACS protections, and handles Blu-ray discs up to MKB version 10 and above so that the Blu-ray movies are attainable freely. Recently Dolby TrueHD codec had been added to the app, which enables users to access any of the audio tracks in Blu-ray discs. It is “able to open, copy, and watch every　Blu-ray, irrespectively whether the Blu-Ray was bought in Europe, Japan or USA (i.e. all the three zones)”. (commented by Markus Nolff, a user of Blu-ray Ripper). This guide shows you how to select subtitles and tracks of different languages when ripping Blu-ray discs. A step-by-step guide is displayed below:

Step 1. Load Blu-ray disc.
Make sure you have had an external Blu-ray drive connected with your PC. Insert the desired Blu-ray disc and run Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper. (A free trail version of Blu-ray Ripper can be downloaded from here.) Now when you see the interface, click on “DVD ROM” and the app will import Blu-ray movie from the BD-ROM. Check the directory and click “OK”. Do not expand the folders and try to look for certain M2TS files, since the ripper will detect and put all the M2TS files in file list. You can load DVD in the same way, the ripper is able to cope with any DVD, either protected or not. If your source movie is in folders, click “DVD folder” to import the folders.

Step 2. Set subtitles and audio tracks.
One Blu-ray disc usually comes with multiple audio tracks and subtitles of different languages. Right under the file list you could find Subtitle and Audio option from where the subtitle and dubbings are set. The dropdown list shows you the detailed information, such as the subtitle language, audio language, codec, channels etc. Here you check the main movie (with longest duration), set the subtitle and audio track, and double-click the file to preview your settings.

Nowadays, numerous software are designed to achieve the function of video formats conversion. However, nearly all of these converters have some defects , such as having or performing too much slow converting speed, so many complicated steps to operate, some even having the audio-video out of sync issues, etc.

Yesterday, one of my friends told me that he had found a new converter, which has much faster converting speed, and especially do not have the audio-video out of sync ,which people usually encountered while doing video converting. For I am also a video lover, he called me excitedly with the intention of recommending it . Ah,  forgot to mention its name. This software is called Pavtube Video Converter for Mac. After got the recommendation from my friend, I could not wait to have a try about it.

I tested it to see whether its converting speed is as fast as my friend said.
The following is the contents and results of my tests.

Test 1:
Input file: a MKV file in size of 75.1MB;
Output format: iPhone 3G MPEG-4 640×480 (*.mp4);
Output files: Mp4 files, and the size is 19.47M
Time expenditure: 1’16’’ (1 minute and 16 seconds)
view the pics as follow:

Output format: iPod Nano 4 640×480 (*.mov);
Time expenditure: 1’10’’ (1 minute and 10 seconds)

Test 2:
Input file: an AVI file in size of 97.5 MB;
Output format: iPhone 3G MPEG-4 640×480 (*.mp4);
Time expenditure: 1’ (1 minute)

Output format: iPod Nano 4 640×480 (*.mov);
Time expenditure: 1’15’’ (1 minute and 15 seconds)

Test 3:
Input file: a DIVX file in size of 135.9 MB;
Output format: iPhone 3G MPEG-4 640×480 (*.mp4);
Time expenditure: 1’35’’ (1 minute and 35 seconds)

Output format: iPod Nano 4 640×480 (*.mov);
Time expenditure: 1’34’’ (1 minute and 34 seconds)

According to my former experiences, it is exactly much faster than some other video converters I’ve used before. By the way, I didn’t find it has the problem of audio-video out of sync too; at least I did not encounter this problem in my test.

If you have interest  in it, you can also try it, it is more than words.

Some Canon digital still cameras (Powershot A75, A63, S410 etc), are capable of shooting a limited amount of video,

since there is no tape, it is saved as an MVI file format. However, the MVI file format is not compatible with other

programs. Even windows media player refuse to play MVI file. Besides, editing software like Pinnacle Studio and

Windows movie maker do not work with the format. Because of this, the files need to be converted to a format that is

more widely used, such as AVI so that these videos shot with still camera can be played and edited as easily as

other common videos. This guide is to tell how to do that.
