I didnt see a better forum to put this in, so here goes...

I was wondering what the best software is for converting DVD's etc... to an iphone compatible video format. I know of a few (Transfer my DVD, Roxio Crunch, etc...), but haven ever used any. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Are you on a mac? If so check out Visual Hub or Handbrake.

Sorry, forgot to mention that. Im a PC user.

yeah i was wondering the same thing...I'm a PC user also and got a bunch of movies on DVD i wanted to somehow transfer to my iphone. read reviews for Transfer My DVD and said it was a piece of crap and didn't work.

so...What software is out there?

[Jeremy Sikora]

Sorry guys, I don't know of any good PC software to use for converting to the iPhone. Try looking here:convert dvd to iphone - Google Search


Sorry I couldn't be of more help to you.

handbreak has a download for windows...im trying it now

Check out YouTube. I tried handbrake but it takes over 10hrs to rip a movie, unless I am doing something wrong

Wow, either your computer is VERY slow, which I doubt, or something is not right...

10 hours, wow... thats very wrong... did it ESTIMATE 10 hrs, or actually take 10 hrs?

also handbrake normally uses 100% of the CPU cycles. so, i normally encode at night when im sleeping and not using the computer.
