HowTo: Convert DVDs for iTunes

No more DVD to iTunes conversion hassles with Handbrake!

You probably have a collection of DVD movies sitting in a cupboard gathering dust. Often, it’s too much trouble to take them out of the box and put them in the machine. It is so much easier to watch a movie on the Apple TV.

When you are not at home, you might want to watch a movie on your iPod or iPhone. Either way, the movie has to be converted to a digital file and imported into iTunes.

I find the best application for the job is called Handbrake and it’s free. You can download Handbrake from their website. Once you have downloaded the file, open the DMG file and drag the Handbrake icon into your Applications folder. It’s as simple as that.

Once you have installed Handbrake, open your Applications folder and double click on the icon to start the application. Insert a DVD, usually DVD player will open so move your mouse to the top of the screen and the menu bar will appear. Click on Quit DVD Player from the DVD Player menu.
