HandBrake - Put DVD movies on your iPod

[Abe1gio2]

I'll try it

[applefreak66]

My handbrake rips the movie but it dosent put it in order the chapters are all messed up! any clue why this is?

[leviasay]

i've never heard of that happening. sorry i can't be more help.

[SheaMysterAndFriends]

@applefreak66 There is a tab that says Chapters....you click on the little ticky box that say something like Chapter Markers. click on it so it becomes unmarked......this should fix the problem! hope it helps

[leviasay]

@SheaMysterAndFriends

thanks for the insight!

Hey Levi,

Thanks for the tips... I realise this is an old vid but most of the info is still relevant.

Do you recommend newer options to HandBrake for doing the same job?

Thanks again,

Very helpful!

[leviasay]

i still use handbrake frequently, however i would recommend downloading the latest version from handbrake.fr

[askthewione]

has enybody ever got a virus from handbrake?

[LZmiljoona]

@askthewione There are very few viruses for Mac. If you have Windows, you should have an anti virus software.

But i don't think you'll get one, cuz it's a popular app.

thanks this really helped! the whole time i've been putting dvds it wouldn't work but what i found out, watching this video is that by the side bar there is a selection, i clicked on ipod and now it works! it was because i wasn't selecting the type so it would say it does not support the file type but now it works well, thanks so much! really helpful. :)

[fjgh666]

mine is workinfg so far but it is taking ages to process is handbrake. its about an hour everytime i do it

[emzyb24]

Thanks Leviasay that was really helpful! Guys if you can afford to buy a mac then things like this are SOOOO much easier! Macs rule x x

[jmozzy101]

[Zeldababie]

[tompentoney16]

iv tred this about 5 times with 5 different dvds.i have a windows vista and evry time its done reading the dvd it says "no title found..." do you know why this is happinging , and do netflix dvds have copy protection?

[DomIsHyper]

thats because your on windows. you need to download sometihng called dvd43then it will work. mac users dont need to download it.

[GunsNQueen]

SAME!!! OMG!

[TheRozzer]

I tried using this with Vista, and the video came out all pixelated... can you help me out at all? I did what you did, and made it have fast Deinterlacing. It did iPod Hi-Rez, and didn't mess with anything else. The menu's a lot different looking from the Mac one, too.

[leviasay]

i must admit, i've never even seen handbrake on windows. i don't have vista, but i do have an old machine that has XP. i'll try to make some time to set it up and test it out. i would suggest downloading the latest version of quicktime, it might have newer codecs and compressors. that might help.

[TheRozzer]

Thanks, but I figured it out. I asked for help on the Handbrake forum, and I didn't use a decryptor for the DVD, which was the problem, since commercial DVD's often have copy protection on them and won't work right with Handbrake unless decrypted.

[leviasay]

that's really interesting, i've never had a problem with commercial dvds not encoding. there is a program (for OS X) called mac the ripper, which removes the encryption and saves the dvd files on your hard drive.

[adidasDC]

Bro do i need to have a dvd burner cuz mine comp has a dvd drive but doesnt burn dvds, i keep getting ERROR no titles found. Make sure you have insterted a noncopywrited dvd

[leviasay]

it sounds like something is wrong with the disc. you do not need a dvd burner, however, if you have a really old dvd drive, the laser might not have the resolution needed to read the dvd. (it's not a blu-ray dvd is it?) if the disc is scratched, you may also have problems. and every now and again you run into one that it just won't read. what movie is it?

[adidasDC]

All of the ones i try dont work, even BlackHawk Down which Came out before the mandatory copy protected dvds, brand new disc

[leviasay]

hmm, i'm not sure what to tell you. you have enough hard drive space right? i would also be sure that handbrake is reading from the proper drive. On the Mac, it's File-> Open Source-> and then choose the dvd. that way you can "force" it to read from the dvd. has handbrake been reading the disc?

[GoochAlva]

How do I get my hand me down Mac to rip quicker? I am ripping a 58 min movie and it says it'll take 25hr. Will

[LeviAndJennissa]

knowing that your hand me down mac is a single 433 G4, and knowing that it takes an hour for my Quad 2.5ghz G5 to encode the same dvd, it makes sense that it would take you about 20 hours, as my machine has roughly 20x the processing power. IT WILL HELP IF YOU TURN OFF ALL THE OTHER PROGRAMS. then nearly 100% of the processor can be devoted to handbrake.

[007richBoy]

y duz it tke 2 hrs to go to 80% ??

[leviasay]

because your computer is slow.

[007richBoy]

ok, but i jus got my vista. shudnt it be fast??

[leviasay]

i've got a quad-core G5 with a superdrive (wicked fast), and it takes about 30-45 minutes for it to rip a two hour dvd. an entire movie is a lot for any computer to process. so just be patient, let it do it's thing and come back later.

[007richBoy]

ok.

[aasjb4ever]

thanks! im new to mac (like i got my first a montha ago) and this really helped!

[8xxxwiixxx8]

is it only for mac?

[leviasay]

have you tried with a different dvd?

you could also try extracting the dvd with "mac the ripper" and then try handbrake on the VIDEO_TS folder.
