I'm assuming your on a PC. If so, please check out the new Official DVD to iPhone for PC users discussion. I believe it's Videora that you'll want.

bump! no solutions?

hey i use Videora and it's great but is it possible to get a widescreen DVD to show full screen on the iPhone? and plz don't say double tap the screen to zoom in cuz it's still widescreen view

What program are all you mac users using to convert already downloaded movies to iphone?

[chris]

Handbrake is the program. It's a perfect combination: free and awesome. Tutorial at the top of this thread.

I have handbrake, but it won't convert .avi files, which I already have about 30 movies, to the correct codec.. It just rips, or converts already downloaded movies..

What specific files does it do?

30 minutes, eh? Perhaps it takes 30 minutes on a dual-core G5 cheese grater.

On my lowly G4 QuickSilver, one can expect to loiter about for an hour and a half for a one-hour DVD file.


Is there something faster for us Mac types?

You're pretty much stuffed I'm afraid.

There's a physical limit on how fast you can read the DVD, and then process the data.

No software is going to help with that problem

36 minutes to convert a 1hr 51minute movie on my MacBook Pro using handbrake. Not bad at all, I'm not big on watching movies on my iPhone but I have a few musicals that will sound awesome on this.
