HeadphoneAddict Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 You can make custom presets to limit how much scaling the screen has to do and to keep the file size reasonable. 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.

Bigguy Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 not without actual details about what you did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 And also the symptoms, I.E. what happens when you drag'n'drop it? Remaining space on device? Size of file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigguy Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran the file in question through Handbrake and it worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigguy Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 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!

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.
