Do people still rip DVDs?


Jase

Recommended Posts

I am out of the loop on this.  I have a 14 hour car trip coming up.  I have 2 kids.  I have an android tablet.  I have kids DVDs.

 

What is the best way to rip the DVDs?  And then play them on the tablet?  I went and got older and forgot all of the software I used to use for such things.

 

I would also like to be able to reduce the quality of the video files to preserve file size.

 

Kisses,

 

Jase

I bought a two screen dvd player at target over a year ago for about $70. It uses the cigarette lighter. Id suggest that instead of spending time with what you are talking about.

Bittorrent them....that still works for kiddy stuff.  Been there, done that lately.

 

Where do you go to search for torrents these days?  The site I used to use when I last did such a thing (ie circa 2008) is now defunct.

The big torrent site from back in the day is still up....and 70% of what ours watch isn't on DVD as of yet.  Stupid Paw Patrol...

 

 

 

What I did was ripped what I could still find the DVDs for (or better yet, ones that aren't scratched all to hell), uploaded it to my NAS, and also to this little gizmo that I absolutely love for long trips where they both want to watch something different on their tablets, but doesn't have to take up internal storage on them:

It comes with a 32Gb microSD card, but I replaced it with a 64Gb so they can have more crap and lessen me getting bugged.

To answer the question, honestly I believe your best bet would be to buy the dvd player already mentioned or to bring along a laptop.

Ripping and converting is pretty time consuming. The best dvd ripping programs are old and nearly obsolete now. Most modern programs will not rip a copy written dvd.

He said the trip will take 14 hrs. Ms jase will drive while he rips old school.
