I just got an Ipod for christmas, and I was wondering what the best free program would work to convert dvds into the ipod? I tried videora, but its too confusing and I don't understand it.

Hey Dude,

Here are some links for you. Videora is the easiest though.

Here is a good article and download area on how to do this. Once you do it the first time, you will "get it" and move on to better things. Read all 3 articles. You do not need the merge program unless you are taking multiple DVD's and putting them into on movie. I would suggest you skip the merge part and go back after you did one successfully. READ THE DIRECTIONS! It will not work properly without setting certain parameters outlined in this article.

I started with DVD Decrypter (free) and Videora (free). It is simple and the instructions on the above web site work.

I moved on to other programs as I got better.

This program will copy the DVDs to your computer and remove the copyright protection. They also have an upgrade that lets you convert the movies to your iPod or PSP but that part costs a couple of bucks.

This program is one of the best encoders available. You can set all kinds of settings for codecs, size, and quality. It even has the option to run in a master and slave mode where multiple computers can work on projects to encode your movies faster.

One word of caution, DRIVE SPACE. My son filled up my entire server doing his movies. In a matter of a day he managed to build an almost 100Gig library. He bought me a 300 gig hard drive to store his movies. He has 150 Gig filled; about 50 movies.
