1. How to Convert DVD to iPad Mini
Apple has released iPad mini 2, along with the fifth generation of the iPad line
- iPad Air at the end of October. Both newest Apple products catch the eye of
people around the world. Last time we provided useful tips on how to watch
protected DVDs on iPad Air. So today let’s move on to iPad mini 2 with Retina
Display and the best solution to convert DVD to iPad mini 2.
If your DVD movies are commercial DVD with CSS protection , how could you
convert DVD movie to iPad Mini? You just need a professional DVD ripper tool. It
will help you solve the problem. It can convert both common and CSS encoded
DVD movies to iPad compatible video or audio files on computer with great
output quality.
iPad mini 2 has an amazing 7.9-inch retina display with higher resolution than
an HDTV. That means, we can enjoy more videos or movies with better visual
quality. But unfortunately, iPad mini 2 can’t play DVD movies directly as it
doesn’t have a DVD drive. Meanwhile, commercial DVDs you have bought or
collected all have copy protection. It’s more difficult to watch them on iPad mini
2, especially those latest DVDs like Fast and Furious 6, Despicable Me 2, Man of
Steel, 2 Guns, We're the Millers, etc.
In order to play or watch any DVD on iPad mini 2, the most practical and
effective way is to convert DVD to iPad mini 2 with an iPad mini 2 DVD
converter. Most of you are likely familiar with HandBrake for ripping normal
DVDs, but it can’t handle encrypted DVDs without the third party software. So
you’ll need the best HandBrake alternative to accomplish tasks that HandBrake
can and even cannot handle. The software you’ll need is DVD Video Converter.
The program can copy any new protected DVDs including DVDs with DVD CSS,
region code, RCE, Sony ArccOS, UOPs, Disney X-project DRM and the latest
technology as well as classic DVDs. Furthermore, it supports Intel® Core TM,
NVIDIA® CUDATM and AMD® to generate 6X faster video conversion speed
with ZERO quality loss. With an intuitive interface, every user can navigate it
