Caris Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 What's the best? Must be free, just to change my AVI, WMV etc to put on my iPod.
Eddage Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 Videora iPod Converter is what I've always used, works perfectly for me!
Caris Posted September 14, 2007 Author Posted September 14, 2007 Awesome, cheers. EDIT: What's the best setting to convert, there's loads!
KKOB Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 iSquint is a cool one i find, drag and drop, easy to use and pretty fast. I think it's Mac only though, but it's what i use.
Mr_Odwin Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 If you really want absolute quality you should find the specs for ipod video and use megui. One click apps can be good, but ultimately doing it step by step with specialist tools leads to a better result.
Eddage Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 Awesome, cheers. EDIT: What's the best setting to convert, there's loads! I haven't played around with the settings, just left them as default and the conversions have been great! You probably could get them even better if you play around a bit though.
fatnickc Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 SUPER has the best options I've seen, do don't be put off by trying to find the download link on that website. Think of it as a fun game.
Jasper Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 Awesome, cheers. EDIT: What's the best setting to convert, there's loads! It all depends on what iPod you're getting. A touch, or a normal one. Touch is a little larger.
Caris Posted September 15, 2007 Author Posted September 15, 2007 Yeah i've got it fairley sorted out now. The only problem i have is that i'm trying to copy the first season of a series to my iPod and whenever i do it i allways just end up with a single subtitled episode from the bonus stuff. Ideas?
Mr_Odwin Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 What's your process flow? (What are you doing exactly?)
Jackster Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 If anyone's wanting to convert straight from a DVD to MPEG-4 or H.264 (i.e. the formats the iPod/Touch and iPhone support), check out Handbrake, it's great on the Mac and they recently released a Windows version too.
Emasher Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 I imagine I'll be using handbreak and mac the ripper alot in the next month.
Shorty Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 I also use the first recommendation of Videora I just follow the wizard and set the quality to top and the audio to very high. You can queue plenty and leave it converting. Even puts it into your iTunes library for you but I prefer to do that myself tbh.
Slaggis Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 "Any Video Converter" works like a charm. It's completly free too. It will convert from basically anything to ipod compatible video. Also converts to avi and something else (I've forgotten what).
Caris Posted September 15, 2007 Author Posted September 15, 2007 What's your process flow? (What are you doing exactly?) I want to take my Season 1 Arrested Development DVD and put it onto my iPod classic. But i'm not sure how, whenever i try it just rips the extanded episode from the bonus
Mr_Odwin Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 Episodic dvds can be problematic for all-in-ones. Have you got the DVD ripped to your HDD? If not, use DVDFab HD Decrypter. http://www.dvdfab.com/free.htm
Charlie Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 I want to take my Season 1 Arrested Development DVD and put it onto my iPod classic. But i'm not sure how, whenever i try it just rips the extanded episode from the bonus Speak to me on MSN later and I'll hook you up with something.
