How to Burn DVD's on Your iPod for Windows Users

You might think that those Mac users get all the good luck with the iPod and being able to burn or copy DVD's to the iPod to watch. However, us Windows users (mac'rs quit laughing!) can now do the same thing!

There are a few steps to accomplish ripping and burning a DVD to an iPod for a Windows user, so I am not going to go into detail about each program you need, but point you in the right direction.

Disclaimer: It is unlawful to copy or burn DVD's that you don't own to your iPod.

Get a good Ripper

You will need to get a good DVD ripping program to use. Visit Doom9.net and scroll down to the Descrambling / Ripping tools section. You can download and use the DVDFab Decrypter or DVD Decrypter.

Both of these should be fairly self explanatory or check the help files with them.

Convert to AVI

Next, you'll want to convert your video to the AVI format using a decoding tool. Also on the Doom9.net site, look for the Decoders section. There are three decoders to use. I personally like the DVDx 2.2, but you can try them out and see what you like.

Convert your AVI to mpeg-4

Now is the final step in burning your DVD to your ipod for Windows users.

You need to visit the Videora site and download the Videora iPod Converter software. This will allow you to convert your AVI file created from the last step and put it into the mpeg-4 format that your iPod needs to play correctly.

That's it!

It is relatively simple to accomplish, just a few steps and a little time to convert your DVD over to an iPod friendly download. Hope you enjoy!
