Apple's Senior Vice President of Industrial Design, Jonathan Ive, has been awarded a knighthood in the United Kingdom.

BBC reports that Apple's Senior Vice President of Industrial Design, Jonathan Ive, has been awarded a knighthood in the United Kingdom.

Mr Ive, who can now style himself Sir Jonathan, has been made a Knight Commander of the British Empire (KBE).

Ive began work at Apple in 1992, but found himself frustated during the early years before Jobs' return. Ive is seen as responsible for many of the iconic designs coming out of Apple over the past decade. Jobs described Ive as his "spiritual partner" and had given him complete operational freedom at Apple.

Mercury News quotes a statement from Ive, reacting to the news.

"I am keenly aware that I benefit from a wonderful tradition in the UK of designing and making,'' Ive, 44, said in a statement. "To be recognized with this honour is absolutely thrilling and I am both humbled and sincerely grateful. I discovered at an early age that all I've ever wanted to do is design. I feel enormously fortunate that I continue to be able to design and make products with a truly remarkable group of people here at Apple."

Many people like enjoy movies at home and they have piles of DVDs. So do I. I like watch lastest movie on my new Mac and it is wonderful. However, I always break and lose my DVDs and I was really sad because they cost most of my money. Luckily, I find a way to store my DVD movies on my new Mac computer and evern put it on my iPod because I use a DVD Ripper for Mac and it can rip DVDs to so many video formats, such as AVI, MP4, MOV, MKV, WMV, DivX, XviD, MPEG-1/2, 3GP, 3G2, VOB and so on.

To do this you must have a nice dvd ripper for Mac. So I find Aiseesoft DVD Ripper for Mac

OK, let’s do it.
Step 1. Download and install Aisesoft DVD Ripper for Mac.

For Intel

For Power PC

Step 2. Load you DVD.
Click the “Load DVD” button(a), find the DVD folder of the movie you want to add from your DVD-ROM, and Click “Open”.

Tick the check boxes(b) before the titles and chapters that you want to rip.

Step 3. Chose output profile and settings.
Selecting output format is really easy, you can chose your output format according to your devices players and the default setting works great.

For a veteran of digital player, you could customize your own settings by clicking “Settings” button to chose your own video resolution, frame rate, bit rate, encoder, etc.

Tips: Sample rate (Hz) = any value up to 48000 (higher value = better sound quality = bigger file)
Bitrate (kbps) = any value up to 160 (higher value = better sound quality = bigger file)


After setting your own output and settings you can click “Start” button to start your conversion. (The time of the conversion depends on your DVD and the settings you chose.)

Do a few more clicks to make your movie more enjoyable.
1. Trim


If you want to rip only a part of the DVD movie, please click “Trim” button and drag the “Start trim slider” to set the start time and “End trim slider” to set the end time.(a). You can also do that by clicking the “Start trim button” and “End trim button”(b). The third way you do that is set the exact Start/End time at the right of the pop-up window and click “OK”.

2. Crop
If you want to remove the black edges or you want to rip a certain area of your video, please click the “Crop” button. You can do this either by drag the frame around the movie (a) or set the crop value: “Top, Left, Bottom, Right”.(b). Another way to do that is choose mode from “Crop Mode”(c).

3. Effect
If you want to adjust the effect of your movie, please click the “Effect” button and a pop-up effect window will appear. It allows you to edit your movie’s effect including “Brightness, Contrast, Hue, Saturation and Volume”.

4. Merge into one file/audio track/subtitles
If you would like to put several titles and chapters into one output file, please tick the check box of the “Merge into one file”.
You can choose audio track and subtitles you like according to what you prefer and the DVD supports.

Follow what I said above I hope you could enjoy your DVD movies on your Mac and also on your iPod and other portable players

Apps Now Is More Powerful Than Media?

App has dominated the world. If you do not agree with it, I'll prove it. iPhone now reaches 123 countries and regions. Of course, if you use iPhone, you are using iPhone app. Just like internet, now app are used every corner of the world.
However, media, including books, music, movies, are used much less than apps. Just look at Apple, report said that only 51 countries and regions can purchase music through iTunes and 6 countries and regions can purchase TV show on iTunes.
There are many limitations in traditional media area, especially in TV and Movies. And every channel customes their own rules(Cinema, Pay to watch, DVD, Cable TV and Internet Streaming Media). iTunes' music and video and all the music and video on the internet's limitation on geographic shows that there's still a long way to go to make a legal market of digital media all around the world.
There is one way that can do that: app. It presents the future of media. App is media. Just like games and software are regarded as media, app is also a kind of media. Not only that, it now a swallow other forms of media little by little.
We first experience this kind of "software swallows media" is Book. The best book on iPad does not only provide iBook and Kindle version, but also provided as standalone app. All the best child book on iPad are apps with full function. They all integrate pictures and video in the user experience.
"Tin Tin" on iPad is a perfect example of this. It is adapted from a carton movie, in which integrates 3D model and 360° room to let readers to feel that you are in the story. Music and movies are relatively passive experience, but they now in apps and become one of the funcion in an app. With the more and more media are integrated into apps, software and media's boundary is now much fuzzier than ever before.
This trend first appeares in production areas, more and more music, video and movie are produced by iPhone. Apps that can integrate music and video are much more than before. Before we enter the next era, we need a lone time of upgrading. Think about it. Nowadays, how the whole media content is spreaded by app? No matter people enjoy the media through Spotify or watch movies with iPad through netflix, the music and movies do not change anyway. It just provides much better user experience.
If you want to promote a music or a TV show and make it popular among people, you can put them on Facebook and Twitter and millions of people will share it and your music or TV show will really really popular. You do not need to spend millions of USD to promote it on radio or TV.
The apps that provides this kind of media will influnce our consumption habits very much. Apps will help us to find media through SNS and bring them to TV, iPad, speaker and other devices. They do that without a set-top boxes, radio and book store and they make you spend your money with app. Every media compay must pay attention to this or they will be in trouble.

Step 10, Two or three minutes later, your mobile phone will reboot, and you can see the Cydia Icon

Finally, I say one more word: although the jailbreak can bring you some new functions, it may also lead to the instability of the system, power consumption increasing, etc. So think twice and then make the decision according to your needs.

For Reasons for Apple to Launch The 7.85 inch iPad

On this Friday, there was a rumor from Apple supply chain that Apple will launch the 7.85 inch Tablet PC in late 2012. The technology blog GigaOm make a analysis why Apple should promote the small dimension Tablet PC.

7寸iPad假想图
Imaginary 7 inch iPad
Athough Apple is leading the Consumer Tablet PC market, and sales of iPad are far above Android Tablet PC, there are still four reasons why Aplle should launch the smaller screen Tablet PC.

First, Smaller Tablet PC is more portable

The smaller size tablet PC with higher frequency of ultilization, can be used in more situations. For example, the Samsung 7 inch Galaxy Tab tablet PC can be carried with you, but iPad is inconvenient in carrying. When the users sit in the yard, or go to Starbucks, iPad can well meet your needs. But in the process of moving, 7 inch flat panel computer is more convenient. The tablet can be packed in your pants or jacket pocket, but iPad can't. Smaller size also makes weight lighter.

Second, Outstanding 7 inch Tablet PC has already been available

Although 7 inch Galaxy Tab brings much convenience, there are still some disadvantages compared with iPad. However, some better 7 inch Tablet PCs have been available such as bookstore Nook tablet PC and Amazon's Kindle Fire tablet PC. The two products are very popular in this Christmas season. Portability is one of advantages, but more important is the lower price. These 7 inch flat panel computers sell for $199 to $249. Although these tablets can only provide 80% functions of iPad, the price occupies only 40% of it. Maybe Aplle will not throw away the market to Bookstore and Amazon manufactures.

Third, iPod Touch has been less attractive than ever

Some people think that since iPod Tough exists, there is no necessary for Apple to launch the smaller iPad, but this is just one of the reasons that Apple should launch the smaller iPad. As Apple communicates with more and more Operators, consumers are purchasing iPhone more, leading the iPod Touch sales gradually slide down. Some Android mobile phone users may purchase iPod Touch as a supplement, but iPhone users will not do so. Recently, the investment put into iPod Touch is less and less, among the product line update items only increases the white version. This suggests that, as one product line, iPod Touch is gradually towards the end.

Fourth, Price of the smaller iPad can be reduced to the level of iPod Touch

If Apple eventually gave up iPod Touch, it will be lack of products whose price is from 199 to 399 dollars. Apple can launch the small size iPad, whose price is $199, to compete with Kindle Fire. Similar to iPod Touch and the current iPad, the $199 iPad can be the product of WiFi version unrelated to operators, and with 3G module version, the price will be improved. To those consumers, who wish to obtain iPad experience and think price of $499 is too high, 199 to $399 products will meet their needs. Industry insiders guess that, the price of smaller size iPad may be associated with iPod Touch, while the larger storage capacity will have the higher price. Although the launch of small size iPad is appropriate, it does not mean that the current 10 inch iPad is not good. However, the small size iPad has a living space. The best opportunity for Apple to launch the small size iPad will be in September, 2012, the traditional iPod conference. This will help Apple develop better the next Christmas market.

Microsoft releases SkyDrive App for Windows phone and iPhone

Microsoft's love affair with iOS isn't over yet. It was OneNote and a “real soon now” commitment on its Lync unified-communications client for the iPad this Monday. Microsoft also announced this week that its Kinectimals game is available for the iPad and iPhone. On December 13, Microsoft made yet another Apple-focused announcement: An iOS version of SkyDrive for iPhone.

Users of Microsoft's SkyDrive cloud storage service now have another way to access and share their files – the newly released SkyDrive App for both Windows phone and iOS devices, which are intended to complement SkyDrive.com's existing mobile interface. "As devices proliferate, having a great experience on the Web is only one piece of a pretty complex puzzle," Microsoft's Mike Torres wrote. "People are choosing where to put their files based on how portable and accessible they are across the various devices they use, therefore, it's critical that we continue to extend the SkyDrive experience to the devices you use every day."

Microsoft's Mike Torres said: "Many still want the full SkyDrive experience from Windows phone, including tasks like browsing their entire SkyDrive, sharing links to folders or files, deleting files, and creating folders." The SkyDrive App allows you to view all of the files and folders in your SkyDrive and those that have been shared with you by others. You can view documents and pictures, create and delete folders, delete files, email links to files and folders (giving recipients either read-only or read-and-write permissions to the file), and download and upload pictures. Moving and renaming files and folders don’t appear to be possible on either platform, however. As a result, phones running Windows Phone 7.5 can now download the SkyDrive App from the Windows phone Marketplace and do just that. For those on iOS, the same app was also released in the App Store.

SkyDrive is a potential competitor in the mobile consumer space with Apple's iCloud, which is available for free with iOS 5. Microsoft's SkyDrive efforts appear to be part of its general market push into a world of connected devices that will increasingly be mobile. It also squares with the "three-screens and a cloud" vision laid out when Ray Ozzie was Microsoft's chief software architect. The idea is to synchronized data across devices. SkyDrive is already facilitating that, in part, by enabling single sign-on capabilities across devices.

Microsoft explained late last month that it has made sharing via SkyDrive more "app-centric." It already enables document collaborations via some of its Office Web Apps, although its "coauthoring" feature used with the Word Web App doesn't exactly work in real time. Other improvements made earlier this year to SkyDrive include simplifications to accessing folder directories and a speeded-up photo browsing experience, as well as the use of AJAX and HTML 5 technologies to improve the user experience. Microsoft has explained that some of the SkyDrive features it built earlier were just too complex, but it is listening to customer feedback and making improvements.

Microsoft’s new OneNote and Lync apps for iPad, iPhone are coming

On December 12, Microsoft released the new OneNote app for iPad and an updated app for other iOS devices like iPhone, iPod touch, etc. Meanwhile, Microsoft made available its Lync 2010 client app for Windows Phone, and the new Lync clients for iPhone, iPad, Android and Nokia Symbian have been submitted to their respective mobile app marketplaces and will be available as soon as they have been approved.

"Since the launch of OneNote for iPhone nearly a year ago, a recurring request from our customers has been for a version that can be used more easily on the iPad's larger screen," Microsoft said in a blog post. "We're happy to announce that today's new release of OneNote for iOS devices includes a version that's tailored for the iPad." Microsoft updated the app with better navigation, table viewing and performance. More significantly, Microsoft released a whole new version that fills up the greater real estate on an iPad screen. Previously, iPad users would have to use a blown-up version of the iPhone OneNote app, which didn't look very appealing and wasn't optimized for a larger device.

OneNote notebooks are stored via Microsoft SkyDrive. "Your own cloud-based SkyDrive account lets you easily sync all of your notebooks across all of your devices, so they're always up-to-date and accessible from virtually anywhere—on your iPhone, your iPad, your Web browser, or your computer," Microsoft said. Today's 1.3 update provides support for the iPad and iPad 2. Other new features, which also apply to the iPhone, include: localization into several new languages and markets; tabbed user interface; quick note creation in the Unfiled Notes section; table rendering; improved Windows Live sign-in experience; the option to sync notebooks only over a Wi-Fi connection; and integrated upgrade option.

Lync, the Microsoft’s successor to Office Communications Server, is the Microsoft’s unified communications platform that the company launched a year ago. Lync provides enterprise instant-messaging, VOIP and conferencing. There is also a Microsoft-hosted version of Lync that is available as a standalone service and part of Office 365 that is known as Lync Online. According to the Microsoft, the new Lync mobile client allows instant messaging, call-related features and audio conferencing using a Lync ID, which is dependent on an organization having Lync 2010 Server installed. The mobile client must be provisioned by the Lync server administrator first, and that will enable users to download and begin using the various Lync 2010 mobile apps, a Microsoft unified communications team blog explained.

However, Apple devices must be running iOS 4.3 or higher to access OneNote 1.3, and users must sign up for a free Windows Live account. The app is free to download and users get up to 500 free notes. After that, it's $4.99 for unlimited use on the iPhone and $14.99 for unlimited use on the iPad. Meanwhile, if you were hoping for more official word today on some kind of Microsoft Office suite on the iPad, don’t hold your breath. Microsoft still are not commenting on rumors that Office for the iPad will be out — in some form — in 2012.

Inside Apple’s new flagship store in Grand Central Terminal, New York

Apple’s new flagship store, occupying 23,000 square feet, is one of the world's largest Apple stores, opening on Friday at Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal in New York. It is located in the heart of the historic terminal and convenient for commuters and tourists alike. Apple signed a 10-year lease with the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) for the space, once occupied by a restaurant. The store is so huge and owns a staff of 350, bringing the number of Apple's New York area employees to more than 4,000.

The company’s newest retail location will offer everything Apple customers are accustomed to -- a full product line, a “genius bar,” and personal training -- as well as a few amenities designed for time-strapped commuters, according to Bob Bridger, Apple’s vice president of retail real estate and development. “Whether you are on the train, in a taxi or walking to the store, when you arrive to the station, just pick it up,” You're greeted with an iconic glowing Apple, under which Apple's best-selling products are available right at the front of the store, meaning if you want an iPad, you can be in and out in a flash.

Besides, Macs and two Genius bars are located through the doors to the left and iPods, iPhones, iPads, and accessories are to the right. As you browse through products, you look out over the enormous hall, with the station's beautiful mural on the ceiling above you and various commuters below. The store seems to have been carefully crafted to fit in with the architecture of the building, which is no surprise since Apple has stores in historic spots all over the world, like underneath the Louvre and London's Covent Garden.

While many customers have been expressing frustration at difficulties with getting the attention of store employees to complete simple transactions, the new self-checkout avoids that situation entirely while freeing those staff members for more specialized consultation and training with other customers. Apple has reportedly noted that it envisions self-checkout and another system in which customers can pickup online orders in-store eventually being the primary ways in which customers make purchases from Apple retail stores. As an extra bonus to commuters, Apple is providing free Wi-Fi throughout the terminal. Also, the store will be the first to offer 15-minute Express Workshops of "tips and tricks in a streamlined format to serve customers on a tight schedule".

Like all of Apple's stores, the new digs are set up as a place of learning to explore Apple products along someone who can guide you in your purchases and get you up and running before you walk out of the store. The mega-brand is sure to get lots of foot-traffic, with the crowds passing through Grand Central each day and over 1,000,000 people during the holidays. And Demographics listed on Grand Central Station's website show that an average 7,500 people an hour pass the corner of 42nd and Vanderbilt Avenue, making it one of the busiest intersections in the city. Apple recently renovated the Fifth Avenue store and is in the process of expanding its SoHo location.

Microsoft updates Xbox 360, adding more contents to enrich your life

Microsoft releases a new Xbox 360 dashboard update to all Xbox users in this week, and Xbox uses can enjoy much more contents apart from games. The Xbox console's various channels now headline the top of the screen, listing the familiar "games," "music" and "video" sections between the new Bing search feature and the console's settings page. A few of the channels have been renamed -- "My Xbox" is now "home" and a very Zune-esque "social" replaces "friends." Core content hasn't changed much, but the way you access it has, with yesterday's single-file tiles retired in favor of single page Metro layouts, packing more than twice as much information on screen as the previous Dashboard.

The contemporary update keeps the Metro, heavy on typography and flat squares and live tiles and swiping, the Metro lives in Xbox, Windows Phone 7 and the upcoming Windows 8, it's a fresh yet familiar take on UI. Metro looks so good and easy-to-use whether you already know how to use it or you've never used it before. With Metro on Xbox, Microsoft can elegantly pack more contents onto one screen. A horizontal menu details the various categories on your Xbox (Games, Video, Music, Apps, etc.) with each category getting its own hub organized neatly with independent tiles of content.

In addition, the Xbox companion application is powered by Microsoft’s Bing search engine. The search functionality allows you to search the entire Xbox Live catalog of TV shows, movies, music, games and apps on your Windows Phone device. Once you’ve searched a title, you can find out more information about it, and launch it on your Xbox from your handset, controlling it with the usual play, pause, rewind and fast forward functions we’re all used to. By bundling all digital subscriptions and content through the Xbox 360, Microsoft wants to make sure your gaming console is at the heart of your entertainment center. Xbox Live subscribers and subscribers of these digital services won't have access to much in the way of new content, but it will all be centralized in one location. Microsoft has also baked in deeper voice control of the console for consumers using its Kinect sensor. The Kinect is better known as motion-controller that gives gamers the ability to use gestures to play games. But Kinect also has a microphone array in it. When Kinect debuted last year, gamers could use their voice for some limited voice-controlled navigation.

In a word, the move is part of a growing effort by media companies to bring some 21st-century pizzazz to the experience of navigating and watching television, a medium that is largely watched using traditional remote controls and set-top boxes that have changed little in the past 10 years. Xboxes are already 57 million households worldwide, so the decision to update such a gigantic installed base is a shrewd move on Microsoft’s part. Nonetheless, it remains to be seen whether the Xbox can juice the Windows Phone platform, which could use a serious boost in adoption.

Google Chairman Eric Schmidt said: “Android has been leading Apple iPhone”.

Google Cairman Eric Schmidt said today, in intelligent mobile phone market, Android has already been ahead of the Apple iPhone.

Google Cairman Eric Schmidt

Today Schmidt at the LeWeb meeting in Paris said: "Android is now ahead of the iPhone." After Schmidt published the speech, that room is filled with the iPhone, iPad and Mac. Having heard Schmidt's remark, the audience suddenly fell into silent for a moment. Maybe they doubt on Schmidt's speech.
Schmidt then gives his own criteria:" huge volume, high performance Android 4.0, lower price, as well as many mobile phone manufacturers’ support."

Industry insiders said, in the intelligent mobile phone market, Android is developing rapidly. But compared with Apple iOS, the obvious disadvantage is Android has not become the preferred platform for developers. Notebook application developer Evernote today only released a new application Hello for iPhone.

Social News reader Flipboard has already launched iPhone application. Flipboard CEO Mike McCue said:" We have been concerned about the iPhone. As with the Android version, we are still waiting."

Schmidt believed that, with the Android 4.0 and huge volume, Android will win. Schmidt said: "in the end, application developers will be affected by the volume, and Google's open strategy will promote the shipment growth. So many manufacturers promote Android mobile phones to the world, whether they like it or not, people will support this platform, even considering it as the preferred platform."

Google Maps 6.0 for Android move into Malls and Airports

Google upgrades Maps version to 6.0 for Android, which lets Smartphone and Tablet users in the United States and Japan know where they are and what places they might want to check out while they are indoors.

Google Maps, the online location application, can help people navigate streets, landmarks, parks, and other outside locations all over the world, but Google's new updated maps application for Android will help you get around inside, too. "When you're inside an airport, shopping mall, or retail store, a common way to figure out where you are is to look for a freestanding map directory or ask an employee for help," Brian McClendon, Google's president of Engineering for Google Earth and Maps, wrote in a blog post. "Starting today, with the release of Google Maps 6.0 for Android, that directory is brought to the palm of your hands, helping you determine where you are, what floor you're on, and where to go indoors."

Google Maps 6.0 for Android will display detailed location when a user is looking at a map on the application and zooms on a building. Users’ approximate locations will be indicated with a blue dot icon within several meters. The newly added indoor maps don't quite offer the turn-by-turn navigation you've come to know and depend upon (that's outside-only for now), but the provided layouts should help usher you along to the nearest bathroom, clothing shop or elevator. There's no fancy equipment at use, either. All of your positioning information is culled from the same set of data (including GPS) used for "My Location," although here it's been optimized to detect movement along the z-axis. That’s to say, try a nifty feature called "Automatic Floor Detection" that'll keep track of your progress as you move about from escalator to escalator.

Indoor Maps was added to version 6.0 of the Google Maps application for Android, works with Android 2.2 or higher, and will presumably be added to additional mobile platforms in the future. Will Google Indoor Maps work on desktop Web browsers? Answer is that the new indoor maps feature of Google Maps is only available on Android mobile devices at this time. Microsoft, by the way, already has indoor mapping of major malls for Windows Phone and indoor mapping of airports and malls for the desktop.

Google has endeavoring to extend its indoor reach, opening up its mapping inventory with a self-service tool (currently in beta) that'll allow business owners to upload floor plans directly to Maps. Airports in Atlanta, Chicago, San Francisco, and Tokyo are among the first to receive the indoor mapping treatment, joined by the Mall of America in Minnesota, certain locations of IKEA, Home Depot, Macy's, Bloomingdale's, and others. While Google worked with these businesses to ensure a certain level of precision, the search company also set up a do-it-yourself site for other business owners to upload floor plans, blueprints, and directories and line them up with satellite images.

Tips on iOS AssistiveTouch

As an old Apple fan, I always plan to share my experience on iOS tips. Every time I try to conclude tips on iOS, there will be a big upgrade of iOS and many features are changing after upgrade. Today I will introduce the AssistiveTouch on iOS to you and hope you like it.

Actually, iOS provides assistivetouch long time ago, but as the old version of it is really difficult to use and not many iOS users know it very well. However, after the new iOS release, it also brings us a brand new AssistiveTouch to users. It becomes a perfect instead of the Home button and makes the Home button has a long life. Today I will introduce you how to use the AssistiveTouch

It is first introduced into iOS as an assistant for people with disabilities. Nowadays, after the update it becomes an important role to protect the Home button and it makes some operation much easier.

Firstly, we need to find how to set the AssistiveTouch. Go to "Settings" and enter "General" and find "AssistiveTouch" option. Open it and you will find a round picture, yeah right, it is the "AssistiveTouch". Click the icon and you will find that it includes 4 parts. Each part represents the functions corresponding. It is really easy to understand.

The next part is "Gesture", click "Gestures" and you will see 2, 3, 4, 5 four different gestures. Those gestures represent many troublesome operations. For example, if you have an iPad 2 and you need to use 4 fingers slide from down to up to come to the Task Manager Menu. But if you click AssistiveTouch's 4 and you just need one finger to finish the operation. Just imagine that if you are really busy or it is really cold outside, use one finger is much better to use four.

AssistiveTouch's last important function is "Favorites". To use this function you need to create a gesture and you can use it. In the AssistiveTouch interface, you will find the "Create new Gesture" option. Click it and you can create your own gestures easily. The gestures you created will be found in the "Favorite" option. For example, you have set a gesture for the game "Fruit Ninja". You can easily open the game without find it on your iPad 2 from different apps.

After you set your own gestures you can easily find and open any files and apps. It is really shorten our operation. There is a lot of such features in iOS 5 and AssistiveTouch is only one of them. Hope you also share you own tips on how to easily enjoy our iOS devices and share them with me.

How to convert DVD to iPod/iPhone/Sansa/PSP/Zune/iRiver/Google Phone/Cell Phone, etc. on Mac

Many people like enjoy movies at home and they have piles of DVDs. So do I. I like watch lastest movie on my new Mac and it is wonderful. However, I always break and lose my DVDs and I was really sad because they cost most of my money. Luckily, I find a way to store my DVD movies on my new Mac computer and evern put it on my iPod because I use a DVD Ripper for Mac and it can rip DVDs to so many video formats, such as AVI, MP4, MOV, MKV, WMV, DivX, XviD, MPEG-1/2, 3GP, 3G2, VOB and so on.

To do this you must have a nice dvd ripper for Mac. So I find Aiseesoft DVD Ripper for Mac

OK, let’s do it.
Step 1. Download and install Aisesoft DVD Ripper for Mac.

For Intel

For Power PC

Step 2. Load you DVD.
Click the “Load DVD” button(a), find the DVD folder of the movie you want to add from your DVD-ROM, and Click “Open”.



Tick the check boxes(b) before the titles and chapters that you want to rip.

Step 3. Chose output profile and settings.
Selecting output format is really easy, you can chose your output format according to your devices players and the default setting works great.

For a veteran of digital player, you could customize your own settings by clicking “Settings” button to chose your own video resolution, frame rate, bit rate, encoder, etc.

Tips: Sample rate (Hz) = any value up to 48000 (higher value = better sound quality = bigger file)
Bitrate (kbps) = any value up to 160 (higher value = better sound quality = bigger file)


After setting your own output and settings you can click “Start” button to start your conversion. (The time of the conversion depends on your DVD and the settings you chose.)

Do a few more clicks to make your movie more enjoyable.
1. Trim


If you want to rip only a part of the DVD movie, please click “Trim” button and drag the “Start trim slider” to set the start time and “End trim slider” to set the end time.(a). You can also do that by clicking the “Start trim button” and “End trim button”(b). The third way you do that is set the exact Start/End time at the right of the pop-up window and click “OK”.

2. Crop
If you want to remove the black edges or you want to rip a certain area of your video, please click the “Crop” button. You can do this either by drag the frame around the movie (a) or set the crop value: “Top, Left, Bottom, Right”.(b). Another way to do that is choose mode from “Crop Mode”(c).
Aiseesoft DVD Ripper for Mac also allows you to choose the output aspect ratio above the crop pane, “Keep Original, full screen, 16:9 and 4:3” are available.

3. Effect
If you want to adjust the effect of your movie, please click the “Effect” button and a pop-up effect window will appear. It allows you to edit your movie’s effect including “Brightness, Contrast, Hue, Saturation and Volume”.

4. Merge into one file/audio track/subtitles
If you would like to put several titles and chapters into one output file, please tick the check box of the “Merge into one file”.
You can choose audio track and subtitles you like according to what you prefer and the DVD supports.

Follow what I said above I hope you could enjoy your DVD movies on your Mac and also on your iPod and other portable players
