Dvd Transfer To Ipod Using Toast 9

[debbiedebb]

i've been trying for weeks to transfer using a dvd's video_TS folder and transfer it out to my video iPod or even my iphone but only and hour (approximately) of the movie gets transferred. does anyone know how to get the whole movie to transfer?

Although it should have worked there is another way. Choose Video files as the format in the Convert window. Place the VIDEO_TS folder on the desktop. Choose DVD with the top button of the Toast Media Browser. Double click on the text that appears in the browser window. You'll see thumbnails and brief titles of each title contained within the VIDEO_TS folder. Drag the one(s) you want to the Convert window. Toast will extract the MPEG files from the VIDEO_TS folder. When that is done click the convert button to export to iPod format. Hopefully this will get you the complete movie.

thank you so much for your suggestion but i tried and tried but to no avail......i promise! i'm not a moron! on the media browser window, the thumbnail that i want to move over to toast came up with a message, "one file is protected." any other suggestions?? i welcome any and all!

If the file is protected then Toast cannot process it. It sounds like this is from a commercially produced DVD. Try testing with a non-commercial DVD and see if you get the same results. Unfortunately due to legal issues, we cannot discuss removing the encryption from commercial DVDs here.
