This is not actually digitizing your DVD. I actually enjoy the menus and hidden easter eggs, alternate endings, blooper reels & chapter selections. Something I miss from the streaming platform. I wish there was a software that could literally store your DVD library, not just convert to mp4.

My question is will it transfer the DVD’s surround sound soundtrack? I’ve got a huge DVD-A music collection and would love to put them on a USB drive but I have no idea if it will still give me the 5.1 surround sound. If not then there’s no point.
I just want to watch the X-Men franchise in chronological order by scene. So if I could get them in digital form and re-edit them for that order, I'm gold!!!! I own all the DVD's already.
What do you suggest after you convert them to MP4 so you can play them on your TV? I have heard of an external drive box with however many TB on it with a wifi signal so it can connect to your TV wirelessly.
I personally would take an older PC or even something like a Raspberry Pi and make it a media player. If you are really technically inclined you can set it up on your network so you can access it on the Internet as your own personal streaming service.

I have the DVD Ripper Platinum and it does NOT work and will not convert my DVD's to MP4. Very disappointed in the software. Waiting for Tech Support to respond. The DVDs play just fine but WinX says they are damaged. So frustrating
LQ and HQ would usually mean low and high quality. High quality would take longer but most video cards can assist with the encoding process making it much faster.
Sex lives of the potato men is the weirdest title I've got 😂😂😂😂😂it's well funny starring Johnny Vegas & the guy with the wangy eye from pirates of the caribbean
Any thoughts how DvdFab comapares to WinX DVD? Especially in the area of 6-channel surround? Or recommendation on simple video editors, that can remove sections, merge files, burn subtitles in, recode for smaller size, increase playback speed, etc? And can support mkv, mp4, formats? For example, any thoughts on Movavi, Boilsoft, Avidemux, AVS Video, DRD Systems VideoRedo, ezsplitter, enounce, tmpgenc video xpress, tuneskit video cutter, ultra video joiner, vob2mpg, slysoft/alcohol120? Or how to record streaming video.. replay (media catcher) capture, OBS?
Odds are that would be easier to convert because if they are home movies there is no added copy protection in place. You might even find software from the camera manufacturer to make a digital version.
So now I've got a movie that's an mp4 file on an external hard drive how do I get to watch the movie on my TV big screen? You still need a laptop to talk to the external hard drive and then plug it into my DVD HDMI player? I don't understand.
I have about 1000 VHS from the 1970s 1980s 1990s and about as many DVDs from the 1980s 1990s and Newer :) Still watch them ALL haven't had TV since the Mid 1990s "WAY TOO GAY"
I ripped a few DVD to a thumbdrive through USB port. The movies work fine when played from the thumbdrive on the our laptops but when I try in my Pioneer head unit, there isn't any audio. I have other movies on the same drive but they were ripped in a different unit and those work fine in the radio. What could be my problem?
Not an expert but the most likely scenario is that it is using a different codec than the other files. I have found that if it isn't a default codec you will have issues like that at times.
What country is the cost in USD ? Just checked this out and its now $ 149.95 and only for one PC , I have 3 Pc`s in my home and allways upgrading them every year , so if so I wouldn`t be able to install at that time would I .?
Does this program can fix old scratch DVD an turn them in to playable new MP4 non scratch copy's? Can this program do like from old DVD recorded in a video cams turn the video quality into 4k?
Unless they have a digital code that is still active you have two options. 1. Purchase the movie on VUDU. 2. If you can find a place that still does it they had a program where you could bring in your own movies (including home movies) and for a price ($8.00 last I saw) they would convert to a digital file on VUDU.
I just RIPPED a home made DVD from 2008 with HAND BRAKE (FREE) I tried the FREE Tril ant it only does 1/3 of a DVD and theere was no SOUND FILE. Plus it. Subscription IT's CRAP in so many ways.
Why would I pay $30 for a ripper when 100s of them are free? This is very old tech that isn't worth much. BTW, it is not legal to strip the DVD encryption, and you have to do that to change formats.

You will never get better than the source quality. Even all the junk that claims to do that is just taking the existing image and guessing what would be there if it was created in that format. Besides that the human eye can't distinguish the difference after a certain point so what is the point of getting the "better quality" if you are not able to tell a difference?
I paid for the platinum lifetime because somewhere on RUclips it was said to take only 5 minutes. What a crock. I've ripped 3 dvds and each one takes 2 hours or more. Ridiculous! Intel i5 computer work 6gb ram. Not a slow computer.
You would have to get a capture card to connect to the computer. (Most of the decent cards run about $100.00 or more if you can find them) The HDMI port on a laptop is configured and intended as a connection to an external monitor not to receive information. So when you connect a DVD player to your laptop both are taking and neither are listening. Personally I would find an external DVD drive (currently around $50.00 but you might find a better price)

You have to save the DVD as an ISO to keep the menus, but then you are limited to playback software which accepts ISOs which is far less than support MP4 or the other video formats

oh damn. ugh.
One things new movies are GREAT at which really sucks is copy protection. They encrypt the movie so its really hard to convert to mp4.
Can the quality or format of the DVD, can it be upscale to 720p or 1080p???? Or is there another software for it??? Also can it work for bluray????
I have the entire Farscape series, including the movie/mini series at the end. Favorite show!
I have faulty towers. I love that show
