28 Ago 07 un dvd sul Nokia n800 e 770

With the latest release of HandBrake and the improvements of Konttori’s Media Converter, it’s easy to get a DVD on to the Nokia 770 or Nokia N800. The screen shots are for Mac, but the same software is available on Windows.

First, rip the DVD using Handbrake to an MPEG-4 AVI with MP3 audio. Attempting to rip it to an .MP4 file H.264/AAC as shown above didn’t work, but ripping it to an .AVI worked fine. In short- make sure your settings match this paragraph, not the screen shot.

Once the movie is ripped, use the Media Converter to optimize it for your internet tablet. Since I am using an N800, I set it with default N800 settings. I am quite pleased with the results - as can be shown in image on the top of this article.

This took hours on an Intel Core2 Duo 2.0 iMac, as these rippers/recoders are not multithreaded and video recoding is an intensive operation. However, with a dual core CPU it is possible to rip one film while re-coding another. Set it up and go to bed. When you wake up, just copy the file to a memory card.

Se7en (as shown in widescreen above) is 2 hours, 6 minutes long and takes 528M on my memory card. Remember to only do this with movies you own (and not your latest NetFlix rental) as this kind of backup may be a violation of copyright law. Check your local laws.
