Step1

Start Aimersoft DVD to MP4 Converter, insert your DVD and click on the Load DVD button.

Step2

Choose your DVD drive when the dialog box appears and hit "OK."

Step3

Select the chapters you wish to convert. Most DVDs split a movie into a number of chapters and there are often bonus features on the disc that will show up as chapters. Select only the chapters you wish to encode to MP4 video.

Step4

Crop the video. Depending on the DVD, the video may not be the same aspect ratio as the screen on your video device. If you want the video to take up your video player's entire screen, click the Crop button to choose a cropping mode. Choose your cropping options in the "Crop" dialog and press OK.

Step5

Select the video format the encoder should use. On the Format dropdown near the bottom of the dialog, select a pre-defined format for the encoder. If you are unsure of the format to use, leave the setting on the default format. Formats for a variety of MP4 devices are supported including the iPod, PSP, Apple TV and Creative Zen. Many formats also have several varieties which will have different video qualities and file sizes. Choose one appropriate for your device.

Step6

Enable subtitles. If the movie has any subtitles at all, select the subtitle track to use. Be sure to select this even if the movie is in your native language. There may be portions in another language that will need subtitles.

Step7

Select the audio track. Some DVDs will have multiple audio tracks primarily for different languages on the same disc surround sound encodings. Select the audio track that best suits your needs.

Step8

Click the "Start" button to start the encoding. The time the encoding process takes is dependent on your processor speed. A faster processor will encode videos more quickly than a slow one.

Step9

Copy the MP4 file to your video player device. Exact directions for this differ depending on the device; refer to your product manual for directions. Be sure you have enough memory to copy the MP4 to the device. If you don't have enough memory, delete some existing video files from the device or choose a different video format that produces a smaller file.
