Experience Sharing: How to Convert DVD movies to iPad More Easily.

Hi, Buddies! Today i'd like to share with you a magic multimedia conversion tool, which can Rip DVD movies to iPad without any quality losing. It is the seventh app i have tried, and it enjoys high honor on google and many iPad users.

The reason i'd like to share with you is just because of my experience:
The other days, a very little mistake drived me crazzy on iPad. I planned to copy some DVD movies onto my iPad so that i can watch them when i travel. I think this is a good idea to kill the boring time. However, as is known to all, iPad supports only the video formats below:

* H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, Stereo file formats are M4v, Mp4 and Mov;
* MPEG-4 Video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
* Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in u-law, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format.

Audio formats supported like below:
* AAC (16 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC; MP3 (16 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible, Apple Lossless, AIFF and WAV.

So i spare no effort to look for a DVD to iPad converter, while some can only Rip DVD to iPad, but couldn't convert to iPad video formats; and some will add watermark on the converted videos, which i can hardly watch on my iPad; what's more hateful, some free so-called can only damage my DVDs.

The above is my experience, and much more i guess you also met. So i will not waste time on it.
Now i'd like to show you how to do the conversion (from DVD to your iPad) step by step, and also i add some screenshots here.

First, you need to download this DVD to iPad Converter and install it on your computer( Download is free and also it provides free-try function).

Step 1: Run the converter and load DVD
After running the application on your computer, click the "Load DVD" button to input any DVD disc, DVD folder, and DVD IFO.



Step 2: Customize output video

This DVD to iPad Converter owns powerful video editing functions. With it, you can easily trim video length, crop video frame, watermark video, add any watermark to your video and even adjust video brightness, saturation and contrast.

Step 3: Choose proper output profile

This tool provides users with many output profiles. You can click the drop-down list of Profile option and choose the proper profile that suits you best.

Step 4: Start ripping DVD to iPad

After all these settings, you can click on the "Start" button to start the DVD to iPad conversion. After a while, you will successfully rip DVD to iPad.

Now you can transfer the output iPad files to your iPad through iTunes and enjoy them conveniently.

Now i finished and hope my experience and information can really be helpful for you, and also i hope we can communicate on the common habiits.

Apps That Will be Killed After the Release of Mac OS X Mountain Lion

Apple will release the latest Mac OS, Mac OS X Mountain Lion, and it will bring us many new features to the desktop OS from iOS. This action will make many apps that we use often and we like very much useless. After the publish of OS X Mountain Lion, the following app will be useless anyway.

Adium & AIM

Most of users have already drop the AIM for a long time and use iChat or Adium. However, after the Messages release, it will make users to forget them totally. Adium now has many pressure about it. Because its hot point is Growl's compatibility and easy-to-use cross-platform record. While after the release of Notification Center in Messages, this function seems meaningless. If you'd like to sync the chat record manually, it is a nice idea to move it from mobile devices to desktop.

In fact, if you use FaceTime or iMessages to contact with your friends, there are no choice for you except Messages. This is mainly because iMessage does a great job and perfectly support IM agreement. If you are using iPhone or iPad, you have to use it. There is another benefit if you are using Messages. Apple will maintain it always, while Adium is like a homeless orphan. Now, the only thing that Adium is doing well is its icon and skin. Maybe, it is a good news for them.

Dropbox

As we all know that, Jobs likes Dropbox very much. It is said that he once attempted to buy it and integrated it to iCloud for 800 million US Dollor. Some people said that Dropbox is a feature, not a product. But Dropbox still exist independently. Now Apple already surpassed it and even make it die.

Other server seems useless after the new feature of iCloud release. The user document sync on all the devices is a big problem. Altough it includes many functions of Dropbox, but its cross-platform feature makes Dropbox will replace by iCloud totally. And there is still no big file on iCloud, so Dropbox with big file can not sync fast anytime and anywhere. There is no doubt that Apple's iCloud will win the battle.

SMS

Maybe that there are few people in your family who are not using smart phone. It is possible that they will become the lonely island of information exchange after the release of Messages. Because although Messages will be come the center of communication, it needs to record the SMS separately. Cross-platform service become more and more common, such as Gtalk and so on. At the same time, SMS is only used on cellphone. For the iOS users, there is no reason to use SMS any more and it costs money.

Growl

Notification Center is like a more easier to use Growl. It uses and improves the core function of Growl, supports show the notice at the up-right of the screen. Growl Rollup is totally used in Apple's desktop app and which is different from Growl is that the notice will on the screen until user ignore it. Notification Center's hidden sidebar design uses a more elegant and non-invasive way to get the same info. When users are doing other things and do no see the notice, they would like to see the notice.

Users will get more friendly user experience, especially after Apple opens the API of it to the third party apps. So the OS Mountain Lion will kill Growl soon after its release.

Nice to meet you gys here. I'm interested in DVD Converter and iPad Video Converter. If you are interested in them too, share us your resource.

iPad 3 with More Tapered Edge and an 8 Megapixel Back Camera?

By DVD to iPad, which is dedicated to developing apps for Apple iOS devices.s

NextMedia / Apple Daily claims to have received the following photos and information through "special channels". The photo below shows what is claimed to be an overview shot of the new iPad 3 back enclosure (top of image) as well as a comparison shot between the original iPad, the iPad 2 and the New iPad (inset).

High quality photos received through "special channels" by a Chinese publication allegedly show that the next generation iPad will sport a larger rear-facing camera than the current iPad 2, and will use a slightly redesigned case than previous models.


The shell should look familiar as it seems to be the same part we previously published. The lighting, however, is much better in this shot, and reveals the more subtle changes. There are notably no markings on the back of the case besides the Apple logo, itself.

The iPad 3 enclosure seems to have a more gradual taper to the edges than the iPad 2. The taper is seen better on the top overview photograph. As a result of this longer taper, the iPad 3's camera rests on the taper itself. We saw this before but due to the dark lighting of that image, the taper seemed more exaggerated.

The absolute positioning of the camera doesn't seem that far off from the iPad 2, but the lens does appear larger. According to NextMedia, the new iPad 3 camera will see a significant upgrade to 8 megapixels. The current iPad 2 back camera is 1 megapixel in resolution. The site also summarizes many of the other expectations for the iPad 3, such as an improved display, quad-core CPU, and a March 7th announcement date.

We've seen a rumor from the site only once before. They predicted new MacBooks, MacBook Pros and MacBook Air models back in April 5, 2010. The MacBook Pros (alone) did launch 8 days after that report, though some of the details (hard drive sizes) didn't match up to the report. Overall, the images here seem to match up to other parts that have been floating around China. Apple Daily is described, however, as a "tabloid-style" newspaper, but the Hong Kong edition is said to be quite popular as the second best selling publication.
