    Putting DVDs on my iPod... Legally

    Hi all,

    Don't worry I bought this DVD with my own money so there is no piracy acts here. But how do I take a DVD disk of a concert of Tenacious D... and put it onto my iPod??

    Wouldnt you convert the dvd to a mpeg or something and then transfer it to your ipod. Roxio EZ CD Creator can do that as well as most other newer versions of CD/DVD burning software.

    DVDShrink can be used to rip an encrypted DVD... as for making it playable on a Video iPod... thats another kettle of fish. :\

    Well I cannot find Roxio CD creator, and I have DVD shrink but that won't work, also I have Nero, but that won't convert the DVD to a mpeg.


    Does anyone have a program site to download a DVD converter?

    You can see if the trial version works with partial movies, and then pay $25 for the full version. Doesn't seem too much to pay. The first choice was $99

    Thanks dglienna, I downloaded the free trial..

    But when I got to putting in the DVD in to convert to a mpeg, I couldn't not find a consistent source. Take a look at my attached picture, it shows me opening the DVD, and finding no files to put in


    Sorry I'm not exactly great with computers

    Have you made sure the mpeg file meets all requirements? MPEG1/MPEG2, with or without interlace, audioformat. etc.

    No, I havn't. I have no instruction book for this (wouldn't look at it anyway) and my older brother won't help me because he's jealous that mines better than his


    How would I find out/make the mpegs meet requirements?

    Well last time I posted a question about iPods Martin gave me a warning in a PM because what I was doing was illegal, and told me to not bring the subject up again. Oh my, I just brought up the subject
