Amusement portable devices such as the iPod, the Zune, or the Playstation Portable are truly convenient. You could transport them anywhere you want and love the films, music, or video games they store on the way. If you love the movies on your DVD and wish to view them on your devices, you should read this article to know how to do.

Films on DVD disks are high quality and demand grand storage space. In direct contrast, for handheld devices, we favor space than quality since the video display and memory of these devices are small, i.e. they could not display high quality motion pictures as of DVDs and put in those monumental files. Consequently, we want to rip and convert films on DVD to the supported formats of our portable devices.

The first step is to rip, i.e. backup, the pictures from your DVD’s into your computer. One of the best DVD ripper I have used is Magic DVD Ripper. It could copy videos from DVD disk to your hard drive, in WMV or another audio video formats without deprivation of quality. It is simple to exercise, you just place your Dvd Movie on the DVD computer drive, pick out target location and formatting and press the Go button.

The next step is to convert the data you just re-created to suitable formats of your handheld devices. You need a video format converter to do this step. My favorite video format converter is AVS Video Tools. It is fast and useful. It could convert video and sound data between many different data formats including MPEG-4 and QuickTime. Therefore, it could be use as an iPod format converter. You could use another video format ripper such as Cucusoft Video Converter if you like.

The final step is to upload the converted data into your handheld devices. Numerous devices work as a removable disk and you could backup files on it like a typical storage devices. For iPods, you need to use iTunes or Windows Media Player to copy and sync the data in your pc and your iPod.

This article supplies a step-by-step instructional manual for you to know how to copy movies on DVDs to your handheld devices. Beside DVDs, there are different media sources for your handheld devices. You could download the videos from Msn Video, You Tube or different video sharing websites. You could also see and enjoy sound tracks from your CDs by ripping and changing them to supported formats of your handheld devices.
