BigNate84 We're going to show you the MacX DVD Ripper
Pro user interface here and rip the Mary Poppins
DVD A spoon full of sugar helps the ripping go
down alright so I'm going to navigate to my applications
and look for MacX DVD Ripper Pro there it is
lets open that application up and as you can see here
we've got some options in the upper left hand corner
some buttons here we've got a DVD icon here if we click on that
that lets us select the DVD we'd like to rip so as you can see I've already inserted Mary
Poppins so we're going to select that
and the software is going to do its thing it's going to analyze the DVD and find out
what specific title contains the entire movie and here is this screen
it automatically comes up after you click ok
and you can select the video profile in my case I like to use MP4 video
using H.264 but you can change it as you see here
you can make DVD back-ups, you can do ISO files
for anyone that maybe isn't familiar with the term ISO
it's a disc image so it's basically a bit for bit byte for byte
image of all the information on that DVD so that's how you make a true DVD back-up
but lets explore some of these other output profiles
we've got some android devices got an HTC, Samsung, Amazon, Google, Huawei
some general purpose mobile video output profiles lets see what's under here
oh Zune!
it even supports Zune I actually still have a Zune it still works,
I even use it but it wasn't a very popular product by Microsoft
but it's kind of funny to me that this product MacX DVD Ripper Pro does in fact support
the Zune platform, kinda cool we've got our PC general video here and TS
video lets go back to recently used profiles here
so this is the one I prefer MP4 video using H.264
so it stores recently used profiles which is nice
once you pick a profile that works for you or one that you like you don't have to figure
it out again it just stores it which is a nice feature
so we've selected that profile now the next thing we're going to do here
is well what I like to do is rename the file
to something that will work in my video data base
so I just like to kind of format it so it looks nice
and we're going to change the artist to Disney and that's pretty much how I like to setup
my files press ok and let the software kind of do it's
thing excuse me you for got to hit the run button
I also like to select the high quality engine and once you press run the conversion will
happen now it can take anywhere from 1.5 to 2 hours
it's not a super fast process so this is the type of thing
that you set it and you go do something else for a while
and let it process in the background ok so as you can see the Mary Poppins DVD
is done doing it's thing it is done ripping
I think it took about somewhere around 2 hours actually 139 minutes to be exact
I kind of lost track to time and then came back
and it was done and you can see the file is here
it created the file in a folder called Mac video library
and you can tell the software where you want the output file to be located
and it puts that little title indication at the back of it
but I like to just get rid of that just because it doesn't really serve any purpose
for me but you can click on that video file
it's a .MP4 so that's how I set it up I prefer .MP4 it's a universal format and
here we go if I can open this up and
what am I playing this in?
MPEG Stream Clip?
I don't want to do that well we could open it up in a number of different
types of playback software that's the nice things
about MP4 lets open this up in quick time
and here we go, Mary Poppins now it's looking a little funny here
because I'm doing a screen recording and I'm fast forwarding back and fourth
this is a little test I like to do after I record
or rip a video I should say, from DVD I like to do a quick little test and just
make sure the beginning the middle and the end
all seem to make sense nothing funny went wrong in the middle anywhere
and the next thing I do and this is because I have a network drive
I take that video file and put it on my home network drive
so I've got what's called a NAS or network attached storage
it's almost like a USB drive but instead of having a USB plug
that plugs into a computer it has an Ethernet connection that plugs into
a router so I can access these videos from my home
network from any device
I've got a windows phone, a Nexus 7 tablet I've got my iMac, I've got a Dell Windows
computer and I've got a GoogleTV device, the Logitech
Revue and the nice thing about this setup is that
once those DVDs are ripped and put in this folder
which is technically called a share I can now access that video
from multiple places on my network at the same time
[achew!!] excuse me
now lets see lets explore some other options in the software
we did the DVD ripping but if we click here on the setup
we've got some options here we can select we've got a default audio language
which I'm going to leave as English but you can see there's some different choices
available for you you can select to open the output folder
after the conversion which as you saw that's what I chose
you can choose the file location right here the directory you want the video to end up
when you're all done that pretty much wraps it up
we've got a little about section over here MacX DVD Ripper Pro version 4.4.4
build number blabity-blahbity-blah so all that good information about the software
just so you know I am not running Mavericks this operating on an older version Mac
I think it's version 10.6.4 thanks for watching
I hope you found this video informative now when I bought the Mary Poppins DVD
I noticed some text at the top of the DVD case
that says DVD + Digital Copy now if you're interested in learning more
