How To Rip DVD’s For iPhone 4S

If you’ve bought an iPhone 4S, one of the things you probably want to do is copy DVD movies to iPhone 4S if you have a DVD collection. After all, the Retina display make the iPhone 4S quite suitable for watching videos, pictures and texts, and it has a better portability than a laptop or DVD player.

 

The problem is that most of DVDs are encrypted by CSS or Region Code, which means you can’t copy contents from discs directly. Also, iPhone 4S is not able to play the raw movies even you copy them off disc to iPhone 4s’ memory card because of the format incompatibility issue. So you need a special tool that can remove copy protections, and convert the ripped movies to iPhone 4S playable video files.

 

Editor’s note: Many people are confused at the legality of ripping DVD’s. Our advice is: If you pay for the DVDs, you can rip them. If you don’t own them, don’t do it. In addition, Don’t make copies and sell them or give them away.

 

The tool we recommend is Aiseesoft Blu-Ray Ripper for accomplishing this task. With this tool, you can rip the raw video and audio off DVD disc and convert the content to iPhone 4S playable video format with a few clicks.

Using Aiseesoft Blu-Ray Ripper to rip DVD’s for iPhone 4S is very easy. You insert your DVD—one you own , of course—and then launch the application; On the main interface that appears, click the “Load DVD” icon to load movie files from DVD Rom. You are also allowed to load ‘VIDEO_TS’ folder on hard drive. Furthermore, if you want to rip/convert movie Blu-Rays to iPhone 4S, click the “Load Blu-ray” icon to load movie files from Blu-Ray disc or Blu-Ray folder.

 

 

Next you perform the other three necessary steps: First, you choose which chapters you want to rip from the DVD in the File List box. Second, you select a preset for iPhone. Aiseesoft has preset optimized output format for iPhone, we advice you choose “iPhone MPEG-4 Video(*.MP4)” as output format. Then choose the destination folder by click the “Browse” button.

 

 

Click “Convert” button to start the DVD to iPhone 4S conversion. Next is just waiting and waiting. We advise you to shut down the monitor to do other things, because ripping DVD’s is a relatively lengthy process. To give you an idea of how long it takes, I ripped the TV-show DVD “Prison break” whose duration is 4 Hours and 30 Minutes, and it spent me about 3 Hours to finish the conversion. This is saying a fast ripping speed, because Aiseesoft Blu-Ray Ripper adopts the Multi-Core CPU utilization and NVIDIA® CUDA™ accelerating technology. It took a whole 8 hours when I used Handbrake to rip the same TV-show DVD.

 

P.s. Below are a few settings you might want to pay extra attention to, depending on your specific needs.

 

Add/Edit Subtitles: In Aiseesoft subtitle tab, you can see all the subtitles the DVD movie includes and select the right subtitle to convert to iPhone 4S.

 

Convert IFO Files: If you want to play DVD movies on iPhone 4S with the DVD menus and chapters display, you need to convert and put the IFO files to iPhone 4S together.

 

Reset Output Parameters: You can reset the output parameter settings like Frame Rate, Resolution, Aspect ratio, Video Bitrate and more to personalize the quality output for iPhone 4S.
