• 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 enjoy watching non-English language movies, especially French, and I can download the movie torrents fine.
However, they all come with a separate sub-title track file, separate to the movie, which is in the original French language.
I can merge these into VLC Player to watch, but haven't found a way to convert this into Apple TV.
Anyone know if it's possible - or suggest an alternative please ?:Cool:

If you have downloaded commercial movies from a torrent we cannot discus ripping or converting them on this forum

Don't need to say it, as practically all movies available via torrent are pirated commercial movies. There is no assistance in this forum for this. Please see our Community Guidelines.
