DESCRIPTION
Tutorial on DVD > iPod conversion using the MPEG2 Works 4 AdvancedTRANSCRIPT
First make sure you have MPEG2 Component for QuickTime in-
stalled...
For DVD VIDEO_TS folder > QT conversion first rip your DVD with
OSEx, Yade X or Mac The Ripper in full disk mode /VIDEO_TS and
AUDIO_TS folders/. If you already have authored VIDEO_TS folder
on hard drive then you can proceed with conversion. DO NOT select
VIDEO_TS folder of the DVD disc itself as input!
MPEG2 Works 4 does not even attempt to decipher the latest DVD
copy protection schemes. Many DVDs, especially recent, popular
films, must be run through dedicated decrypting tools first, like Fair-
mount or Mac The Ripper. When MPEG2 Works 4 has trouble read-
ing a VIDEO_TS folder it is because of intentional authoring defects
placed there by the company releasing the disk. The movie studios
have started breaking the DVD standard in subtle ways to trip up
ripping applications. If you encounter the libdvdread error try to rip
your DVD again with some other ripping tool in a combination with
Fairmount..
OPERATION:
Then launch MPEG2 Works 4 and navigate to "Export2QT" section
/Export2QT button is located on bottom-left side of main window/

chapter 5, then write into dialog 5-5 without spaces and only chap-
ter 5 will be converted...
2 or more chapters in a row: If you want to convert chapters 5, 6
and 7 only, for example, then write into dialog 5-7 without spaces...
If you want to convert Chapters 5, 9 and 15 only then you have to
do one by one...
