• 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.

How do I convert Itunes TV shows to .avi or mpeg4 so I can play it on other players?

Hi
I own a video ipod and I recently purchased an Archos player (for the TV recording and bigger screen) I have a bunch of shows purchased from Itunes. Which software will convert the Itunes files to another format such as .avi or mp4 or mp2 etc. The archos will play practically anything with the plugins. Thanks

You can't.
