If you're like me, you take one or more of your DVD movies, TV shows, podcasts and other content with you on your iPod or iPhone when traveling. Heck, I even take stuff for long car trips across town, or to watch when I'm sitting in the waiting room at the doctor's office. Most of the time, it's pretty simple to get movies, TV shows or podcast content onto your iPhone or iPod touch for viewing at a convenient time -- you can simply use iTunes to download it (for a suitable fee). Things get a bit more complicated when you want to watch a commercial DVD from your collection on one of these devices. So, are you wondering is there a way that you can save a DVD that you own to your iTunes library and then put it on your iPod Touch to view later? Yes, of course there is a way, but you have to use a third party software for help, such as cucusoft dvd ripper ultimate discount and plato dvd ripper professional discount. Both of them are dvd rippers for you to ripdvd to ipod compatible format, after ripping, you then can watch dvd movies on your ipod touc. There's another great tool called HandBrakethat accomplishes this task quite nicely and has just been updated to a fully-compatible, Leopard-only version. OK, but now that you have the software, how do you use it so you can watch that 300 DVD when you're on the train to work tomorrow? Here is how you use HandBrakethat to rip dvd to ipod.

HandBrake allows you to select high or low resolution ripping options for the iPod Touch. While high resolution offers better quality, low resolution files take up less space.
