I need to get this movie from a DVD to my notebook?

Question

I have home videos I have of my son that are on DVD that I need to get onto my notebook somehow.

Someone said I could just RIP it using Windows Media Player, but that didn't work.

Then someone said I could use a USB cable to transfer it to my notebook. Well my Canon DC210 doesn't have a connection for a USB cable. Maybe there is a certain kind of cable I can get I just don't know what it is or to get it.

HELP!! Please.

Answer 1

You can try iSofter DVD Ripper Platinum which converts DVD to AVI, DivX, XviD, VCD, WMV, MPEG4 format video files, with almost same quality, but just only 10% size. So you can add DVD Movie to iPod, Zune, Pocket PC or any other MP4 player. Also, you can rip the DVD to the formats for Youtube video such as wmv.



Even you can use the video editor profile to output avi file for your video editing software, such as Adobe Premiere, Sony Vegas. Also, it supports ripping MTV, music DVD to MP3 audio; you can listen to your favorite movies on your iPod now!

Answer 3

Windows Media Player is not a DVD ripper...

But HandBrake is: http://handbrake.fr/

This presumes the optical drive on your computer is drawer loading and can actually read DVDs.

And chances are pretty good that connecting a USB cable won't give you what you want, either.

Answer 4

I personally use DVD FAB with DVD Shrink. Best to keep whole content while pretty clost to ZERO quality loss - so close you can't even tell.

STEPS:

1) Rip with FAB to destination folder

2) SHRINK (if need be) with DVDShrink to new folder 4Gig

3) Delete original folder the 8Gig Rip and BURN 4Gig

I uploaded them myself here are the links.
