Okay guys, So, I am taking a long road trip this summer and will be on the road for 7 weeks. I really don't want to take my dvds (burnt or original) on the road and have to keep up with the binder and what not. I want to just throw as many movies as I can onto an external hard drive and then watch them on my laptop from there. So I have a MacBook Pro. Could someone help me out on this? What software do I need (MacTheRipper, DVD2One, Toast???). A step by step would be beautiful! thanks in advance jared
Just so you know... I did read the tutorial at the top of the mac threads, but that is for burning. I can give MacTheRipper a shot tomorrow and just see if I can drag the ripped file to an external but I am thinking the computer won't understand? Am I wrong or will I not be able to watch the movie from the mactheripper file?
well i have been messing with it this morning using mac the ripper, handbrake/mpeg streamclip... handbrake is taking 4 hours or so per movie. I have moved the bit rate down to 1300, but have left the 2 pass encoding on. Can someone help me figure out how to get this done faster or is that just the price to pay with Handbrake?
