• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

So Handbrake won't do AVI's anymore and I"m pretty ticked off as that's the only format that will play through my DVD player....

I need something that will rip my DVD's and convert them to AVI's (like Handbrake USED to do). I then take those AVI's and burn them onto a DVD as a Data Disc. This allows my DVD player to play all 6 movies in sequence without having to load and unload each DVD from my library.

So now what program can I use to convert the MP4's to AVI's? My DVD player is unsupportive of anything else. :|

Alright I figured it out on Handbrake.... I can still view MP4's if they are converted to MPEG-4 instead of the H.264 <--- that doesn't work on my player.

All good! Cheers!
