Usually if you rip at 720 x 480 (or anamorphic) at 1,500 - 1,800 kbps your full size movie might take 1.0 - 1.3 Gb and still look decent on a 40" TV as well as the iPad. I also make a smaller 480 x 320 or similar file at 500 kbps for my iPhone and Nano, which only take 400-700 Mb space and can fit on a CDROM. Report
July 27, 201016 yr comment_375270 I recently ripped a DVD for my iPad/iPhone that plays fine in iTunes but will not upload to either device. Puzzling, any clues as to why? Report
July 27, 201016 yr comment_375304 And also the symptoms, I.E. what happens when you drag'n'drop it? Remaining space on device? Size of file? Report
July 27, 201016 yr comment_375365 The DVD was ripped with AnyDVD ripper. The video file is already in iTunes and plays fine. File is not big and I have plenty of room on my 64gb iPad. When I sync it, all the videos go except this one. I checked the check box, I have done a complete restore. I have removed and re-added the videos. Nothing I do will get iTunes to add this one file to my iPad or iPhone. Report

July 28, 201016 yr comment_375460 How about right click convert for iPad? You Da Man Grawk!! In iTunes, under advanced, there is "create iPad or apple TV version". Selected the video and hit this. It must do it in realtime because it took about an hour to convert an hour long video. I have never seen this in iTunes nor have I needed it until now. Thanks again! Report

Well, for example if you have a .mov file it will play in itunes fine, but wont transfer to an iPod until you convert it into an M4v or MP4. Report
