Re: [Apple iPod] Video Transfering Software, Jumbled Artwork

I have used Cucusoft http://www.cucusoft.com for transferring DVD's to my
iPod/iTunes with 100% success including protected movies.

I am not 100% happy with their iPod Video Converter because it does not work
with YouTube files and initially they wanted me to purchase their new
YouTube Mate product that does convert from YouTube to iPod compatible. But
after a couple of disappointing words to them they gave me a free version of
it.

I have used Cucusoft for a number of years converting DVD's and videos from
the net. I like the options for converting that allow you to adjust all of
the different audio functions and the video for everything from conversion
type to video screen size. It is faster then many of the other products I
have tried.

There is also, of course, Handbrake http://handbrake.fr/ which is free Open
Source. It does not seem to be as fast as Cucusoft and as I remember I had
to run a stub program called DVD43 which is a separate program and it allows
handbrake to work with protected DVD's but for free there is not much to
complain about.

You didn't say what format your music videos are in so I am assuming you
have music videos on DVD. If that is correct then Handbrake would probably
work fine for you unless you want to spend a little more money then try
Cucusoft
