DVD to iPod

If you're a Windows user, PQ~DVD works great for DVD to iPoD conversion. The program is simple to use, works flawlessly, and rips the DVD content you want fast.

It's just a few simple steps to make an iPod video from a DVD with this software:

1) Download PQ DVD to iPod Suite or PQ DVD to iPod converter, install and run.

2) Insert the DVD you want to convert, your DVD may begin to play automatically through your PQDVD, but if it does not, click `File` and `Open DVD`.

3) Click around in the DVD's menu to set up DVD playback as you like. Select language, subtitles, specific chapter, etc..(If you activate these options, they will be active throughout your converted DVD)


4) You can adjust/modify the aspect ratio at this point. But note, it can distort the picture quality.

-If you click 'record' at this point, you will be met with this message.


It gives you the choice of if you want to start recording now, whilst the menu is still up, or to wait until the actual movie starts playing. Unless you really want to have the menu clip recorded aswell, select `Wait for main movie to start`.

5) Using the dvd menu to navigate, begin the movie.

Use the video playback controls to queue up the point at which you want to start recording. If you want to record from the begining, drag the blue button along the bar at the bottom to the start of the movie.

6) Click the `Record` button. You will be met with this screen


All you have to do here is select a folder in which to store your recorded files in.

Once that is done, the movie plays at a fast-forward speed as it records to the .MP4 file.

7) Click the `Stop` button when you want to stop recording (Or, leave it to run until the end if you wish to record the whole thing).
At the end, you will be met with a screen confirming that you have sucessfully converted your file, and issues instructions as to how to import them to your iTunes music player, and subsequently, your iPod.

Use the video playback controls (at the bottom) to queue up the point at which you want to start recording. For example, if you want to record from the begining, drag the blue button along the bar to the start of the movie.

3) Now press `record it`.

As with the DVD conversion, you will be met with this screen -


All you have to do is select the place on your HDD in which you wish to save your video files once they have been converted.
