Question: I'm trying to convert a DVD disc from local shop to .mp4 and it has 3 audio tracks and 3 subtitle tracks. I want to change the format but preserve the all the audio and subs so that I can play it on my iPhone and iPad? Any suggestion?


As MP4 is a popular video format supported by various media players, video editing apps, online video websites, etc., to play, edit or share your DVD movies more conveniently and easier, you need to convert DVD to MP4 format at first. But how to finish the DVD to MP4 conversion while preserving multiple audio channels as the above question?

In fact, with the right program, you can get all done easily and quickly. I recommend you Pavtube Bytecopy, which is special designed for users to rip Blu-ray/DVD to MKV/MOV/MP4 with multiple audio tracks. Moreover, it's also a professional Blu-ray/DVD ripper, allows you to rip and convert Blu-ray/DVD discs to any video format you like. Intimate is, there are many optimized presets for tablet and smartphone, including Kindle Fire HDX, Google Nexus 7/Nexus 10/Nexus 4, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S5, Galaxy Tab 3, iPad, iPhone etc. which will give you best video quality.

Here, this post will give you a guide on how to convert DVD movies to multi-track mp4 format on Windows/Mac.

Tips:

1. Although this ByteCopy should be able to rip Blu-rays, I have no experience with it as I don't have an external Blu-ray drive. But one of my friends had a test and said it's quite worthy a try. 

2. Mac version is also available: Pavtube Bytecopy for Mac. 

Get this ByteCopy installed and let's start the workflow easily.

Step 1. Import DVD disc, DVD folder, IFO/ISO image files.

Step 1. Free download and install the Best Blu-ray/DVD Copying & Ripping tool on your PC. Insert DVD disc to your ROM, click "Load files" to import DVD disc directly from ROM. If you have IFO/ISO and DVD folder, choose the corresponding option to load DVD movies from your computer.



The main title in your DVD will be checked by default; so let's move on and choose format.

Step 2. Choose format.

Click the "Format" drop-down list and choose "Multi-track Video>Multi-track MP4(*.mp4)" as below:



Step 3. Adjust video&audio settings (optional)

Click the "Settings" button to check all video&audio settings. By default it will check all the audio tracks (languages), so if you only need some of the languages, just check the unwanted ones.

Btw, video size, bitrate and frame rate can all be changed if you are not satisfied with default settings.

Don't forget to click OK to confirm all the changes.

Step 4. Start conversion.

Click the big red "Convert" to start converting DVDs to MP4 with multiple languages. The original DVD chapter marker will be kept automatically.

After conversion, hit the "Open" or "Open output folder" icon to quick locate converted MP4 videos, transfer it to your iPhone/iPad/iPod or other portable devices for playing.

OK! We now can freely watch DVD movies with chapter markers and languages on MP4-compliant devices.

FYI: QuickTime cannot work with all the videos with chapter markers; in case of the problem, you are suggested to download a VLC Player for your tablets and phones.

Getting a SRT file to MP4- How to add srt subtitles to MP4 video natively?

Summary: In most of cases, people can get some awesome foreign movies without the subtitles. If you want to add srt subtitles language to your mp4 files, here is a guide to help you do it.

Subtitles can be a great way, sometimes the only way, to watch a movie in a foreign language. And SRT files are videos' subtitle files, storing dialogue and commentary form videos including movies and television shows. SRT subtitle files are so useful that they can be usually embedded into videos to help viewers understand the videos better.



Supposing you have a truckload of downloaded MP4 movies in foreign language, but the devoid of subtitles in these movies drives you on the verge of collapse. Have you ever created your own movie with your recordings but found your clips are difficult to understand? One feasible solution is to add SRT, the most basic subtitle format, to MP4 video file. It is a great demand in the current market.

Part 1: Download External SRT Subtitle or Create Your Own SRT before Adding to MP4 Video

This part is available for people who do not have any .srt subtitle or who want to add some of their own words to the .srt subtitles displayed onscreen. If you have saved SRT subtitles you need, just skip this part and directly move to part 2.

Download SRT subtitle: You can put "movie title" + "your preferred language" + "subtitle" as the search strings and select the subtitle file saved in .srt for an effective SRT subtitle file searching. Alternatively, finding the needed subtitle in .srt format from those popular subtitle download sites like Moviesubtitles.org is also a practical way.

Edit or make your own .srt file: Here we take Notepad as an example. Just open Notepad, create the subtitle you like in the text editor, click menu File->Save As; change the subtitle file name based on your name of video file and save it in .srt format.

Tips: The SRT subtitle needs to contain the following parts while creating the SRT subtitle:

1. The number showing which subtitle it is in the sequence.
2. The time that the subtitle should appear and disappear on the screen.
3. The subtitle itself.
4. A blank line indicating the begin of a new subtitle.



Part 2: How to Add SRT Subtitle to MP4 File

To get it done effortlessly, I recommend you Pavtube Video Converter, which is most user friendly, professional and the outlook of it is smart. With it, users can add subtitles in *.srt, *.ass, *.ssa to MP4 videos with just a few clicks. It can not only add subtitles to MP4, but also supports many other video formats, like AVI, MKV, etc. Besides adding subtitles to movies, it is an easy-to-use program with many other functions, which enables you to edit videos, convert videos(MKV, AVI, WMV, MOV, VOB, MPG, FLV…) quickly without quality loss. Just download the program and follow the guide below, you’ll find it is really simple to embed subtitle to MP4. The Mac version is Pavtube Video Converter for Mac.

1. Import mp4 source.

Click "Add video" button to import the *.mp4 files. After few second, it will be imported successfully and you can preview the whole movie in the preview window.


For BD/DVD videos, force subtitle can be checked for output so as to help you to read the unknown language and fully enjoy the blu-ray/dvd movies.

2. Choose output format.

Now go to "Format" menu to select output format there. A variety of options are listed, and choose the one you desired like rvmb, mp4, WMV format. For example, you can select "Common Video > H.264 Video(*.mp4)".



Tip:

By the way, if you want, you can adjust output video and audio parameters according to your own needs. You can change bitrate, frame rate, channels, etc. Click "Settings" button to set output profiles.

3. Add subtitles

In order to get customized videos, you can add subtitles to your own videos.

Find "Edit" icon and then click it, you will find video editor. There you can Trim, Crop, Add watermark and Effect. Above all, Subtitle can be added here.

For creating customized subtitle, you can count on free software for subtitle editing: Subtitle Edit. Go to write the subtitle content there and it will be saved as SRT files, which is supported by Video Converter Ultimate. Then load it to the software for output videos and you will get a characteristic video.

4. Convert your mp4 files.

Now it's time to start conversion. Click big Convert button on the interface and then you will get a conversion dialogue box to show the exact progress, like time left, estimated size, state and so on.

Note: If you are bothered about waiting for conversion to finish, you can choose to check "shut down computer after conversion". Then just let it alone, you are free to go out to do anything you like.
