iTunes enables you to import and watch videos directly on your PC, but it doesn’t include a feature for downloading content from a DVD. To help your easily add DVD movies to your iTunes library, you have to get aid of a DVD ripping applicaion at first to help you rip DVD to iTunes compatible videos before transferring them to your iPhone, iPad, iPod, or stream to Apple TV etc. for playback. 

   
The process of extracting audio and video from a DVD is commonly referred to as “ripping.” Ripping also includes the process of encoding, which converts the DVD content to a specific digital file format, such as MP4. Here, the best program I can recommend is Pavube DVDAid- the Best DVD Ripping software program, which can help you rip DVD to iTunes supported video formats quickly and easily and with good video quality.

Part 1: Convert DVD to iTunes 

Step 1. Run DVD to iTunes Converter; load DVD movies

Click the disc button to browse and import DVD disc from ROM, or load the ISO/IFO files that you want to convert for viewing on Apple iOS-based devices. 
 

 
Pavtube DVDAid will detect and list the main title (the full length of this movie with all the chapters) and check it by default. So just keep it untouched and let’s move on to Step 2.

Step 2. Choose export format

You can click the dropdown menu between “Format” and “Settings”, you will see many presets sorted of different device models and programs. Move your cursor over the left column to locate your device model/manufacturer, or you can try the small search box on the bottom right corner.
 

 
For example, if you own an iPhone, iPad, iPod, just choose the best profile from iPad/iPhone/iPod column.

Step 3. Adjust specs or edit video before conversion (Optional)

Click “Settings” button to configure target file quality. After entering “Profile Settings” panel, you are allowed to adjust video and audio parameters such as bit rate, frame rate, sample rate, etc..

If you prefer a much better video quality and don’t mind the output file size, you can rise the video bit rate higher than 1500. Generally speaking, the higher video bit rate will result in the larger output file size, and vice versa.
 

 
Step 4. Start conversion

Now hit the big red “Convert” to start converting DVD movies to MP4 with best settings for playback on different idevices.

After the conversion, you can get the converted DVD rips in *.mp4 format by clicking the “Open” or “Open output folder” icon.

Did Deutsche Telekom Reveal the iPhone 6’s Release Date?

Will the iPhone 6 be out in September? One German wireless company certainly thinks so. The iPhone 6 has yet to be announced, but a German wireless company, Deutsche Telekom, is telling its call center support staff to tell customers that the device will be on September 19 of this year. 

The advice is meant to be used to entice customers into staying with the company reports AppleInsider, who got the tip from a German language Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) News site. Other media outlets are reporting that the date may be a potential leak on the part of the German wireless company. 

Whether Deutsche Telekom is telling its employees this based on actual information from Apple or if its an educated guess based on the release dates of past iPhone models is unclear. The reason why the company has been telling its staff to inform its customers of this date was to encourage customers to keep the company as their wireless provider and renew their contracts with the company. 

It was a tactic also employed by wireless carriers in the United States, especially during the period when AT&T (NYSE:T) was the exclusive wireless carrier for the iPhone. Today it can also be used with Verizon (NYSE:VZ), Sprint (NYSE:S), and T-Mobile, Deutsche Telekom’s American subsidiary, as wireless carriers. In the pre-iPhone days, similar tactics were used for the trendy cell phone of the moment. (MOTOROLA’S (NYSE:MSI) RZVR, anyone?)
  
However, this news could be good news for anyone in the market for an iPhone 6 this fall. Germany is among the European countries where the iPhone is released on the same day as its premiere in the United States and Canada. This date would fit into Apple’s recent pattern of releasing its phones around that week in mid-September. Phone releases going back to the iPhone 4S fit this pattern. 

Apple is staying mum about the iPhone 6. In typical style, no comments are made on future products until the company makes the official announcement. New iPhones are usually announced in early September, mere weeks before they are released to the public, allowing the buzz to build up in the silence leading up the pre-order period, which usually starts the same day as the announcement. 

It’s about time for a new iPhone to be released. The iPhone 5 came out in fall 2012. The following fall, the iPhone 5S and 5C, came out. Since then the iPhone 5 has been taken off the market. While the iPhone 5S and 5C had their success, interest in both is waning, especially in light of the Samsung Galaxy’s S5 recent release and swirling rumors of an upcoming iPhone 6 release date. However, we won’t know if Deutsche Telekom is right or not until the official word comes from Apple.

Report Claims iPhone 6 Will Feature Curved Display, All-Aluminum Rear Shell

Apple's next-generation iPhone may feature rounded edges and a curved glass display, according to a new report from Mac Otakara 

   

 
                                                 The Squair Curvaceous Bumper

 Citing "reliable sources", the publication notes that the iPhone 6's cover glass will sit flush with the device's rounded corners, departing from the straight edges seen on the iPhone 4 and iPhone 5s. The report likens the device's profile to the Squair Curvaceous Bumper, a Japan-made aluminum bumper for the iPhone that features a rounded housing. 

The report also claims that Apple will do away with the rear glass antenna breaks found on the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s in favor of an all-aluminum design. Such a move would likely mean that Apple is incorporating significant changes to its overall antenna layout, perhaps positioning current radios in different locations. 

Throughout the past few months, various reports have indicated that the iPhone 6 may feature slightly rounded edges. However, only a few reports have claimed that the device will feature a curved glass display, with Bloomberg noting last December that the company was working on two iPhones with large curved screens for this year. That account however was contrasted by The Wall Street Journal this past January, which said that Apple would not be using a curved display in its devices. 
 

           Renderings of the iPhone 6 (4.7'') and iPhone 6 (5.7'') based on leaked schematics

Apple will likely unveil the iPhone 6 later this year in two different sizes of 4.7 inches and 5.5 inches. It is also likely that the smaller 4.7-inch version of the phone will ship first in the third quarter of this year, while the larger version is estimated to ship later due to challenges with the device's display technology and battery life. 

In addition to a larger display, both versions of the iPhone 6 are expected to include a thinner, bezel-free design, faster A8 processor, Touch ID fingerprint sensor and an upgraded camera with optical image stabilization. The device is also expected to debut with Apple's latest iOS 8 mobile operating system, which will likely feature enhancements to Maps, Siri, and iCloud in addition to a new "Healthbook" app. Apple is also said to benegotiating with carriers to increase the price of the iPhone 6 by $100.

Spin, bend, drop, type: Logitech unveils quartet of iPad cases (hands-on)

Logitech's Hinge, Turnaround, Big Bang and Ultrathin keyboard cover cases are on the way this spring. I tried two of them over the weekend. 

 
It's hard to get excited about new iPad cases. I'll admit, though, I have a soft spot for Logitech: its keyboard accessories are among the best out there, and I've always found the build quality to be excellent.

Logitech has announced four new cases today, and they're all focused on specifically practical functions. I've been trying two of them for the past few days on an iPad Air. 
 
The Logitech Hinge (seen above) is a flexible adjustable-angle iPad case. No big surprise there, except the Hinge can bend and hold any angle along a 50-degree range of movement (15 to 65 degrees) thanks to its flexy-bend back hinge. I tried opening the iPad Air Hinge case up to a variety of upright, nearly full-recline and mid-range angles, and it worked well for all. The plastic-backed, fabric-front-covered design has an attractive look, but makes an Air a little thicker and heavier than using Apple's own leather Smart Case. Magnets in the lid auto-wake the iPad, and the hinge on the back keeps closed when in folio mode, avoiding any weird flip-open moments when using the case to read (a problem I've had with other flexible cases). Logitech claims the case is spill and drop-resistant more than normal cases, for a bit of extra protection. The Hinge is $59.99 for the Air version, or $49.99 for the iPad Mini or Retina Mini versions. I like this one a lot. 
  

                                                              Logitech Turnaround

The Logitech Turnaround offers up a rotational hinge to flip the iPad to landscape or portrait mode while still in the case. I've seen this trick before on other iPad cases, including some great ones by Targus, but Logitech's does it well. The case has a bit thicker overall feel than the Hinge, with a sleek type of brushed-nylon material on the outside that gives it the feel of some sort of executive attache when folded up shut. The case stands sturdily and supports a couple of angles, and in portrait mode the case did a fine job...even if it ends up looking a little less elegant on a desk. Die-hard portrait-mode users, take note: this could replace a deskside swivel stand. The Turnaround costs $59.99 for the Air or $49.99 for Mini or Retina Mini versions, too. 

  

     

                                                       Logitech Big Bang

LogitechThe Big Bang, which I didn't try, is an extra-rugged iPad case with additional impact resistance: its shock-absorbent slim case has been drop-tested by Logitech up to 1.8 meters. I'll make sure to dry some drops when I check one out. It's a basic slim folio case otherwise, in multiple colors and with five different viewing angles. Also available for the iPad Air and both iPad Minis, its extra protection will cost you a pretty penny: $99.99 for the Air, or $79.99 for the Mini versions.
 

 

                                      New Ultrathin Keyboard CoverLogitech

 

Finally, Logitech is updating its Ultrathin Keyboard Cover to be thinner, and have multiple viewing angles -- something other cases had, but the Ultrathin lacked. The cover case will be 6.5 millimeters thin and two-thirds the thickness of the iPad Air. The new Cover costs $99 for the Air version, or $89 for the Mini versions. It'll be released in Europe and the U.S. in May. The Ultrathin Keyboard Cover is my favorite thin iPad keyboard accessory, so I'm pretty excited about this news. Stay tuned for a review update when I get one.
 
The Hinge and Turnaround will be available in Europe in April and the U.S. in May, and the Big Bang will be available in May in both regions.

Android leads iOS in Q1 activations: The rumored $100 Google smartphone may kill iPhone

Google is looking to change the smartphone industry and new announcements are pitting the search company directly against the high priced iPhone from Apple. According to reports, there are rumors abuzz that Google is looking to release a new smartphone that will cost only $100, which could be well below the market average.

 
The initial rumors began after Taiwanese supply chain sources were reported to be dealing with the potential of the new possible cheaper smartphone from Google. However, it is still unclear whether this is a real idea, or something that was leaked without any company backing.
 
There were also reports that Google will be launching the phone at $100, but neither the Taiwanese "sources" nor the Chinese site detailed what that new phone would look like, although some have speculated it could be the evolution of the Nexus phones.
 
Google was not immediate available to comment on the leak and has not publicly confirmed or denied the reports coming out. The Mountain View-based company is expected to release its new Nexus 6 smartphone this year as it attempts to win over the general population.
Its previous smartphone, with a large screen, was well-received by observers and experts, but did not make a splash on the market as users shied away from the phone.
The rumors also come after Apple rumors over the future iPhone saw that its phone could see an increase in price, an issue that already has users worried that the newest addition to the Apple family could price itself out.
 
Based on reports, the proposal from Apple to start the selling price with American mobile carriers at $300 has not been received well, forcing the company to rethink the price hike. This could have led to Google seizing the moment among the angst to promote and release small details concerning their plans to undercut Apple with a much cheaper smartphone.
 
It also comes after seeing Motorola's own success with a cheaper smartphone. "The Moto G has been the most successful, highest-selling smartphone in Motorola's history," said Motorola's Senior VP Rick Osterloh during an MWC 2014 event. 
 
If Google does go forward with a large screen, cheaper model, it could help them move back into the smartphone market and compete against Apple. Users are picking up larger screen smartphones at cheaper costs, which could make the new Google smartphone at $100 a steal that could have much traction in the marketplace.
 
The smartphone battle appears to be heating up and while it is prudent to wait for confirmed details, the rumor mill is in full swing. 

Guide:Easiest way to convert Blu-ray movies to Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Kids edition

Ripping Blu-ray to Apple TV 3 with subtitles and Dobly Digital 5.1 surround sound

In terms of an overall, pants-on-couch experience, the Apple TV is still the best streaming box you can plug into your tube—followed by a Roku. Since Apple supports 1080p now, with the new Apple TV 2012 (Apple TV 3rd generation), you can streams a large catalog of available-to-anyone video that’s nearly as high-fidelity as Blu-ray. Of course, most of you are not about to pay iTunes’ ridiculous prices to watch 1080p HD movies and TV shows you already own on Blu-ray. Instead, you can get the movies off Blu-ray into iTunes for Apple TV 3 streaming in HD 1080p quality. If you have a great sourround system, you can even watch Blu-ray movies via ATV 3 with Dobly Digital 5.1 surround sounds and proper subtitles.



To achieve your goal smoothly, I will throw a detailed tutorial up. This article mainly explains how to backup and convert Blu-ray to Apple TV 3  with AC3 5.1 audio while keeping desired subtitles and how to play Dobly Digital 5.1 sounds on ATV 3.

First, the most important piece of the equation is that you have a Blu-Ray ripping tool hooked to your Wins or Mac PC. Most of you are likely familiar with the excellent Handbrake for ripping standard Def DVDs, but while the latest version of the software has added SOME support for reading Blu-Ray folder structures, it cannot yet decrypt the Blu-Ray discs the way it can with regular DVDs, so you’ll need to add an intermediate step. The software I recommend here is Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper(available for Windows or for Mac users. Get the Windows version here, and the Mac version here).

Frankly, I tried several softwares and I can tell you that NO ONE comes even close to the simpleness and great quality that Pavtubes softwares deliver. I’ve had success using the software to convert Blu-ray discs to 1080p videos with subtitles and Dobly Digital 5.1 for Apple TV 3 streaming. This software is so simple to use and gives me exactly what i was looking for. I’m saving and digitalizing my entire collection and now been able to put them on iTunes and watch them wirelessly on my Apple TV 3 with extraordinary quality of Audio (DD 5.1) and Video (1920×1080).

The software works like most other Blu-ray rippers I’ve used. Pop in your disc, choose an Apple TV 3 output profile, and start the conversion. Then go get a cup of coffee (conversion takes time).

Note: As for ripping Blu-ray to Apple TV 3 1080p videos with Dobly Digital 5.1 and subtitles, a BD drive is required for ripping Blu-ray disc.



P.S. and Tips:The program has a number of presets for Apple TV, Apple TV 2, and Apple TV 3rd Generation under "Apple" category, to export a Apple TV 3 1080p video with ac3 5.1 pass-through, "Apple TV 3 Dolby Digital Pass-through (*.m4v)" preset is recommended.

The best video format and settings for streaming Blu-ray to Apple TV 3 with 5.1 surround sound:
Format: Apple TV 3 Dolby Digital Pass-through (*.m4v)

Video Settings

Codec: h264
Resolution: 1920*1080
Bit Rate: 5000 kbps
Frame Rate: 24 fps
