Tutorial: How To Rip DVDs to iPod for Free [Windows]

This tutorial demonstrates how to rip DVDs to iPod format using Handbrake for Windows and DVD43 (DVD for free). Note that DVD43 will not work for 64-bit Vista. It is completely free and legal. Comment, rate, and subscribe.Download links are below. Enjoy.

*VIRUS NOTE*
I guarantee that these programs (from the sites I have given you) will NOT cause any viruses. The sites provided are the creators' websites and wouldn't distribute a virus. In addition, I scanned them both and they are clean.

*SIDE NOTE*
You can also encode in H.264 for good quality. I mentioned it in the video that you should use MPEG-4 but H.264 has better transitioning and similar quality. The only difference is it takes a bit longer for each encode, so if you have the time I would recommend H.264 over MPEG-4.

**UPDATE NOTE**
There is a new version of Handbrake available on the site different from the one I demonstrate here. The main thing that has changed is the presets have differently labeled options and some new ones. The presets we are interested in are under the Apple section. Low resolution = iPod and high resolution = iPod Legacy.

This is the best tutorial video for this program! My only problem is is I have the 64-bit Windows Vista, so I recommend using the AnyDVD program. It is simple and easy to figure out, did it in less than 10 mins. Great video!
