• 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.

I have a Lg phone 8100 with a miniSd 1 GB card that can store movies and shows. In the Howardforums for phones, there is a lot of discussions and ways to put movies in the 1 GB card that usually involves changing avi or dvd movie to a format to 3gp that will play on your phone. Some of the softwares are super, imtoo and mpegable. Check it out on this link

I was wondering if there is a mac version of it, and has anyone done it.

Use ffmpegx to convert films to & from nearly format out there.

Just select 3gp as file type, enter your phone's screen resolution and try that.

(Try a short film first in case it doesn't work)

Google FFMpegX if you can't find it.

Bitpm? Dunno what that's supposed to be :)

I just convert my movies with FFMpegX, and the drag them to the Movie folder on the memory stick.
