Step by step to convert dvd/video to zune

emily · 12-05-2007, 03:44 PM

1. Free download the latest Zune Video Converter + DVD to Zune Suite at http://www.oursdownload.com/Zune-Vid...converter.html , install and launch.

2. Click DVD to Zune Converter component, load your DVD by clicking 'Open DVD' button or choosing 'Open DVD' from 'File' drop down menu, choose the DVD ROM in your PC, it will take you to the DVD menu in the player screen.

3. Click the "Setting" and go to menu "Subtitle", Set Subtitle to what you like.

4. Click the "Setting" and go to menu "Audio Track", Set audiotrack to what you like. To 'Output Folder', Enter the full pathname or choose the path where you want to save your video files by clicking 'Output folder'. The default output format is WMV, which natively supported by Zune. You can also hit "Setting -> Output settings", select other output formats you like (MP4, H.264, WMV7/8/9, MP3, WMA, etc.)

5. The converter will automaticly detect the main movie of your DVDs, it will popup with below window to let you make a decision, just keep the setting of "Record from movie start point" and output file size setting, the default setting is the best for good quality and compact output file size, click "Yes" to start ripping DVD to Zune video files.
Tips: You can also just record any part of movie by drag the slide bar to where you want to start, and click the "Convert" button, please select "Record from current time point". This provide you with more flexibility.

6. Find the .wmv or .mp4 file that DVD to Zune converter created and add it into your Zune software library.

7. Load the .mp4 or .wmv files to Zune by clicking 'Sync contenct to and from your Zune'. Done!

Hi,

I only can agree to that. The CucuSoft Zune Suite does a superb job !!! And if you need to convert to other devices too, get the CucuSoft Ultimate Suite. Yes, it cost some money but it's worth not have all the troubles.

And if you come around one of these protected DVD's, just use 1ClickDVD Copy 5.x ( latest version ) and DVD43 4.0.0 ! Then make a copy of the DVD first and then use the Cucusoft converter !

I am not sure how the Cucusoft Zune Converter Suite alone handles protected DVD's. Haven't tried it yet !!!!

Cheers,

jce

This encoder is around 3 yrs old, but hot damn it is the best encoder I have found by far (even better than the ones that cost money).

Google "M2PMCencoderZX" (I cannot post links yet since I just signed up)

I am in no way associated with this program, and it is freeware. Give it a look and if you have any questions ask here. I have figured it all out (after DAYS of messing with all of the other garbage around).

i've done everything right. i've opened the DVD, I've set the settings I wanted it to be at, and yet, when the movie is finished converting, it says "trial version" in the middle of the converted movie. why does it do that?

got any suggestions on how i can fix that?

I had downloaded this as well awhile ago and unless you purchase the full version all of the movies you convert will say that. I could be wrong, but I didn't find away around it either and ended up removing it from my comp. Hope someone else is able to give you more answers.

I decided to drop the $40 and download the real version and it works great... very simple! Threw SAHARA in the DVD drive and went to town.
I'm not very computer savvy so didn't feel confident using Super or some of the others.
Cuco is really easy. It took about 40-45minutes with the settings at highest quality.

D-Stroy · 01-28-2008, 10:20 PM
