How to rip DVD to portable video players and mobile phones

Step 1. Download AVS Video Converter

You can try out the Windows-only Video Converter for free, but a watermark will appear throughout your video. If you're serious about converting video, purchase the program for US$39; the variety of supported file formats makes it worth it.

Step 2. Launch AVS Video Converter

AVS Video Converter: Main Window

Start > All Programs > AVS4YOU > Video > AVS Video Converter 6

Step 3. Select Output File Type

AVS Video Converter: Click To MP4 to convert video for PSP

Click the To AVI, To MP4, To 3GP or To WMV buttons along the top of the interface:

- To MP4 for mobile phones with MPEG 4 video support;

- To 3GP for mobile phones with 3GPP and 3GP2 video support.

Step 4. Choose Video File or DVD

AVS Video Converter: Click Browse to video files or DVD to convert to PSP

Click the uppermost Browse button on the right. Navigate to the location where you keep your video files or DVDs, and select the video that you would like to convert. Click Open.

Note: When your input is a DVD Disc, you will need to select the path to your source file: X://Video_TS/Video_TS.IFO. "X" stands for your DVD-ROM or the hard disk drive folder where your DVD is stored.

It is important to select the IFO file, rather than VOB or VRO file, because the IFO file contains the information about the entire DVD structure and this way you will avoid audio and video de-synch problems when converting. Besides most DVDs have several VOB or VRO files (files with actual video) and if you convert VOBs or VROs instead of IFO, you will have to merge them afterwards, which is not the case with the IFO files.

Anyway if you have only VRO or VOB files, select them. AVS Video Converter converts these files perfectly too.

Step 5. Select Output Location
