How to Convert DVD Movies to iPod Format Using Lenogo DVD Movie to iPod Video Converter

Remember do not copy DVDs that you do not own! It is illegal to make a copy of a movie for use on your device if you do not own the original. The legality of DVD ripping will vary based on your country of residence. iPodMediaSelection.com does not in any way endorse violation of the valid rights of copyright holders, and strongly recommends that you consult your country's copyright and fair use laws before copying any video content.

1- Download Lenogo DVD Movie to iPod Video Converter from here, and install it.

2- Insert a DVD into your DVD drive and launch Lenogo DVD Movie to iPod Video Converter.



3- Click "Open DVD" button and you'll see a dialog box below. If you want to convert the whole DVD movie into a single iPod file, just click "OK" for the next step.



4- This dialog box shows the contents table of the DVD movie to be converted. Click plus "+" before the DVD title to expand the title tree.



5- You may need to change the DVD title. To do this, put your desired name into the "Title" edit box. This will be the file name in your iPod. To choose a subtitle, you need first select the responding title item (which is usually the longest chapter), and then choose the appropriate subtitle in the drop-down box. To choose an audio, refer to the operation of choosing subtitle.



6- "Save as" is used to save the converted file to a folder in the hard disc. Click "Browse" button to change the default folder.



7- Now click "Convert" to start converting. The display on the top shows the converting progress. You may also preview the DVD movie in the Preview Display on the right.



8- When the conversion is completed, the folder where you saved the converted file automatically opens (you may also open the folder using menu "Edit -> Open Output Folder"). If you want to convert another DVD movie, select menu "Edit -> Remove All", and then go to the step 4.

9- Launch iTunes and choose "File -> Add File to Library". Choose the .mp4 file you have created. Load it on your iPod and start enjoying your movie!



Note for advanced users: Lenogo offers a wide range of advanced options for veterans. E.g. you may choose to convert any segment of a DVD movie; you may adjust DVD video and audio properties. Just click the "Settings" button for more choice.
