Watch my DVD's on my new Kindle Fire HD

Wanna play your DVD movies on Kindle Fire HD? It is really difficult for us to find an effective player to resolve all our DVD videos. Actually, with the help of Pavtube DVDAid, we can easily deal with DVD playback issues.

The Kindle Fire HD is the second generation of Amazon's Kindle Fire line of color touchscreen tablet computers. It features a new 1280×800 high definition LCD display that brings greater experience on movie watching. Recetly I got my Kindle for watching films or backing up my DVD Collection.

However,  as we know, Kindle Fire HD can't play DVD directly because it can't have a DVD drive. Kindle Fire HD supports MPEG4, VP8, H.263 videos. To watch DVDs on my new Kindle Fire HD, I think I need to use a DVD ripping software to help you convert DVD to Kindle Fire HD supported video files such as MP4 format. 

After trying a few DVD converters, finallly I find Pavtube DVDAid, (Alternative Mac version) and purchased it so I can watch my DVD's on my new Kindle Fire HD. I chose Pavtube because the interface was very clear and the whole process seemed very straight- forward. It does a great job in ripping my DVD movies no matter from DVD discs, DVD movie folders, or DVD IFO/ISO image files to a common video for my Kindle Fire HD and a HTC cell phone too. 

How to convert DVD  to Kindle Fire HD compatible videos files

Blu-ray discs are widely used by film producers, so people who love watching movies, may store kinds of Blu-ray discs in their home. These discs need a lot of space. Meanwhile, the discs are easily scratched. 

To protect the expensive Blu-ray Discs from scratching, more and more people are tending to make a backup of their Blu-ray collections. As an experienced user of various Blu-ray ripper tools, the author of this post is pleased to help beginners find their best fit. The following passages take a brief review of three top Blu-ray rippers in 2016: ByteCopy, MakeMKV, and DVDfab.

Pavtube ByteCopy Review

Pavtube ByteCopy is your best tool to rip and convert Blu-ray movies and DVDs to MKV container format with multiple audio tracks and subtitle sincluded. It preserves chapter markers in the converted MKV file. All that and more make it possible for you to easily select your needed tracks, subtitles, as well as chapters when watching Blu-ray and DVD movies with your media players.

And other than that, you can backup and convert latest Blu-ray and DVD movies to any other formats like MP4/MOV with multi-track audios, M4V, AVI, WMV, MPG, M2TS, etc for playback on iOS/Android/Windows Tablets/Phones, HD Media Players (WDTV), editing software (Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere, etc.), and more.

MakeMKV Review

MakeMKV is a nice choice for those who feel like to make lossless copy of their Blu-ray and DVD collections. The software does one thing- converting the video clips from encrypted disc into a set of MKV files, preserving most information but not changing it in any way- and does it well. It is very easy to remove unwanted audio or subtitle tracks and pretty fast to back up a Blu-ray. The copying of Blu-ray Avatar took only 86 minutes. All video streams, audio tracks and subtitles are included in resulting MKV file.

Import source: Blu-ray Disc/folder/ISO, DVD

Export file format: .mkv (with original codecs)

To add- MKV (also known as Matroska) is a container file format, in which there can be many audio, video and subtitles streams, allowing the user to store a complete movie in a single file. Practically this means that it is possible to put entire movie with multiple sound and subtitle tracks, chapters and movie thumbnail into single file.



Trial and Download

• MakeMKV 1.6.8 for Windows
  
  Requires Windows XP, Vista or Win7, x86 or x64.
   
• MakeMKV 1.6.8 for Mac OS X
  
  Requires x86 Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
• MakeMKV 1.6.8 for Linux

MakeMKV allows for a 30-day trial, and $50 USD is all you pay for lifetime Blu-ray ripping feature. Its DVD ripping feature always stays free, so let’s say thank you to the generous developer of MakeMKV.

DVDfab Blu-ray Ripper Review

DVDfab used to stand for an excellent free DVD ripper. Now we know they can do more (and ask for more too). DVDfab Blu-ray Ripper decrypts and rips Blu-ray title to various video files playable on next generation consoles like PS3 and Xbox 360, HD player like WD TV Live, or mobile devices like iPod, iPhone, iPad, etc. Unlike MakeMKV, it exports a lot of video codecs and formats:

Video: MPEG-4, H.264, MP4, MKV, AVI, WMV, M2TS, TS etc.

Audio: MP3, MP4, M4A, WMA, WAV, AAC, AC3, DTS, etc.

So you see the differences here. With MakeMKV you get lossless Blu-ray backup but only in MKV format; while with DVDfab you lose original Blu-ray quality but get much smaller movie clips in desired format. A preferred feature of DVDfab is their “Lighting speed”, i.e., multi-core CPUs and NVIDIA CUDA support. By taking advantage of CUDA accelerating, the conversion time is greatly shorted.



Trial and Download

• DVDfab Blu-ray Ripper
  
  Requires Windows XP, Vista or Win7, (x32/x64). Not a Mac version is provided. 

Everyone can evaluate the trial for 30 days before it stops work. To continue using the software, you can buy a one-year license of DVDfab Blu-ray Ripper at $60 USD and $105.6 USD for lifetime license. If you purchase Blu-ray Ripper and DVD Ripper in bundle, it’ll be $93.5 for one-year use and $154 for lifetime. Pretty high price, isn’t it? Especially when you can get a similar Blu-ray Ripper- BDMagic at much lower price?

Compare: MakeMKV vs. DVDfab vs. ByteCopy

MakeMKV and ByteCopy are good for lossless Blu-ray and DVD backup, while DVDfab focuses on Blu-ray trans-coding to portable devices like PS3, Xbox, etc.

Q: Which Blu-ray ripper keeps Blu-ray movie structure (including chapters)?
A: MakeMKV and ByteCopy

Q: Which Blu-ray ripper keeps multiple audio tracks and subtitles?
A: MakeMKV and ByteCopy

Q: What about the ripping speed of the three Blu-ray Rippers?
A: MakeMKV = ByteCopy (lossless copy) > DVDfab

Q: Which en-decodes Blu-ray with NVIDIA’s CUDA support (GPU computing)?
A: ByteCopy and DVDfab (Tip: CUDA works only when exporting H.264 encoded videos)

Q: Which does better on Blu-ray hacking/cracking?

Not a Blu-ray ripper is able to crack all the Blu-ray Discs as decryption always falls behind encryption. So it’s a question of upgrade and tech support. All the three updates their software along with the come up of new BD+ keys. MakeMKV and ByteCopy charge free for updates while DVDfab asks you pay extra money for the updates.

Sync MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash Videos to iTunes on Mac

Summary: Do you want to sync MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash Videos to iTunes on Mac for transferring to Apple devices? This article mainly introduces the Mac solution to put any kinds of 720/1080p videos onto iTunes.

iTunes proviedes a media library for iOS devices. Before you can sync music and movies to iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, you need to add your music, video, and other items to create your iTunes library. However, iTunes only supports limited video formats (files that end in .mov, .m4v, or .mp4), many videos can't be directly streamed to iTunes, such as MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash etc.

How to get MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash easily syncing to iTunes? The answer is to convert these 720p/1080p Videos to iTunes compatible videos so you can transfer them to your iPhone, iPad, iPod, or stream to Apple TV etc for playback. Now let's go to learn how to do it.

Do either of the following to transfer videos to your iTunes library:

Drag a file or folder from the desktop to the iTunes window. If you add a folder, all the files it contains are added to your library.

In iTunes, choose File > Add to Library, locate a file or folder, and click Open.



Download 1080p movies and TV shows to iTunes from iTunes Store

The iTunes now supports up to 1080p full HD video contents. You can add HD movies to iTunes by purchasing them from the iTunes Store or by downloading them from the Internet. Video purchases from the iTunes Store are delivered SD and HD. HD content is offered in either 720p or 1080p. iTunes by default is set to purchase, download, and playback HD content in 720p. You must change your local preference setting if you prefer to download, purchase, and playback HD content in 1080p:

1. From the iTunes menu, choose iTunes > Preferences > Store (for PC, choose Edit > Preferences > Store).

2. Next to "When downloading High Definition videos, prefer:" set your preference to 1080p. Click OK.

Depending on your computer's hardware configurations, you may be unable to purchase, rent, or playback content in 1080p though.

Transfer 1080p videos/shootings to iTunes

You can transfer QuickTime, H.264 and MPEG-4 movies (files that end in .mov, .m4v, or .mp4) to iTunes and use them in a video-enabled iPad or iPhone and with Apple TV. Just drag and drop the HD videos to iTunes. But not all kinds of music and video are compatible with iTunes– videos in MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash Videos will not import to the software. To convert MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash Videos videos to iTunes supported format before you can add them to iTunes library, you need to get a Video Converter for Mac here.

How to convert MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash Videos to iTunes

Step 1. Run the Pavtube Video to iTunes Converter for Mac, drag and drop source video to the program.

Step 2. Click on “Format” bar, and Choose iTunes compatible format for Apple devices.

Choose the iTunes supported formats in the "Format" dropdown list. You can go to "Common Video" or "HD Video" options to find what you like. I think MP4 format is better for iTunes.

But, here you are recommended to choose the Apple devices like iPad, iPone, Apple TV, etc directly. Find a suitable format under these Apple devices options.

Tips: For some advances users, you can go to adjust video and audio parameters like bitrate, resolution, channels, etc. Click "Settings" button you can go to check and change them as you like.

Step 3. Press on “Convert” to start encoding MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash Videos to iTunes compatible video.

Step 4. When conversion completes, press on “Open” to locate converted videos. Drag and drop these movies to iTunes.

Now open your iTunes and then sync the converted MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash Videos movies to iTunes library for convenient playback on Apple devices. In this way, you can enjoy your favorite MKV, VOB, AVI, MPG, Tivo, WMV, Flash Videos on your iPad/iPhone/iPod wherever you are.

iPhone 5C Review and Video Tips- How to convert DVD to iPhone 5C

Summary: This article focus on iPhone 5C Review and Video Playback Tips. I write it aiming to show users a perfect way to watch DVD movies on iPhone 5C.

The 2013 iPhone 5C takes the 2012 iPhone 5 in a less-expensive, more fun direction with colorful unibody polycarbonate shells in red, green, blue, yellow, and white, along with an improved FaceTime HD camera. Well, first of all let's have a look at this cheaper version of the iPhone.

iPhone 5C Review :

GADGET DESIGNER

Apple's iPhone 5C is a slightly cheaper, more colourful alternative to the firm's latest flagship iPhone 5S smartphone.

While some expected the iPhone 5C to launch below the £300 mark, it seems Apple has instead decided that it's not willing to compromise on price or user experience, designing its new "cheaper" smartphone with the same specifications as last year's iPhone 5.

It's clear that the smartphone is going to divide opinions, mainly with its refreshed design and overhauled iOS 7 operating system. However, we think that the more you use it, the more you might be won over.

Design

The iPhone 5C's colourful plastic casing is the first thing that will divide opinion. Some who encountered our bright green iPhone were quick to dismiss it as "toy-like" and "cheap", while others said they were impressed by the premium feel of the device.

As we pointed out in our iPhone 5C first impressions, the phone's polycarbonate plastic back has a surprisingly quality feel. The unibody casing feels sturdy and tough, and as we found when we accidentally lost hold on the glossy handset above concrete, it's pretty resistant to scratches too.

The glossy casing will be a nuisance for some, and during our first couple of days with the iPhone 5C we found it difficult to keep a firm grip on it. However, now that we have got used to the handset we find it comfortable to hold, perhaps more than the iPhone 5 due to the new handset's smooth, rounded edges.



That could also be helped by the handset's size, as it's slightly thicker and heavier than the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5S handsets at 132g and 8.9mm thick, making it feel more solid and comfortable in the hand.

We liked the physical buttons too, which match the colour of the device - be it a white, blue, yellow, pink or green iPhone 5C. The volume buttons are larger, and more rectangular than those on the iPhone 5, and we found these more satisfying, and easier to press.

Beyond the slippery, glossy back, we have another small gripe with the redesigned casing, and that's the SIM slot. We found the port on the iPhone 5C's right hand side is prone to picking up dust and dirt, and we had to be remove it in order to clean it properly. The headphone jack on the bottom of the phone can also feel spiky to touch, which could be an annoyance for some depending on how you hold the handset.

Screen 

The iPhone 5C's 4in 1136x640 326ppi Retina display is unlikely to disappoint. Despite being the same as on the last generation iPhone 5, which has since been succeeded by the Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One, the screen still stands out as one of the best on the market. Colours are vibrant, text is crisp, and although the display isn't great in bright sunshine, not many are.

Our only real issue with the screen is its size. With Samsung, HTC and Nokia releasing smartphones with larger displays, the iPhone 5C's 4in screen feels small, in turn making the handset seem somewhat dated.



That said, the screen is much more usable one-handed than most of its competition, and given that Apple is targeting younger users and new smartphone users with the iPhone 5C handset, this could work to its advantage.

iPhone 5C Video Playback Tips

I believe more people will buy this new coming Apple iPhone and it would be good to play DVD movies on iPhone 5C during a boring travel or a long flight. Unfortunately, you cannot directly transfer DVD to iPhone 5C.

I cannot help telling you that I just got my blue iPhone 5C. Anyway there is another problem that I need your help. I want to convert some of my DVD movies like Toy Story 3 to my iPhone 5C so that I can watch them when I'm boring outside. What is the best software you know? Thanks!
