Re: [Apple iPod] Transfering movies from a DVD to my iPod

Huh? It takes like 10 seconds to convert to ipod once Handbrake finishes.
I just rename the file from Movie to whatever and drag it into iTunes. My
daughter has 100s of converted DVDs in her ipod, as soon as we buy a new
DVD the first think we do is use Handbrake to get it into the computer and
iTunes. Handbrake is the best program -- I love it.
