Hey all

Is there a simple way to watch old DVD's I have on my Ipod Touch. Most of my new DVD's I buy with the digital copy, but I am wondering about the old ones. I have a bunch of seasons of shows I wouldn't mind watching while I am on the treadmill at the gym.

With a Cd i seem to be able to just pop it in and the songs will go into Itunes. Not having the same luck with my DVD's. Any suggestions?

Is it even possible? I don't know a ton about this stuff.

Thanks

You are going to need to convert the DVD into MP4 format. One of the better programs for this is called Handbrake and the good news is that it is free!

HandBrake

The bad news is that depending on the speed of your computer, this process can take a couple of hours to complete!
