THREE TIPS: #1 When you choose the Convert Profile, you might notice there is an h264 and an h265. In particular, on Windows, the VLC font is very small so it's hard to see the difference. Be sure you pick the h264 or you may only get audio... like I did. #2 Don't be a mullet like me and click off the No Disc Menus box. It must be checked or VLC will continue converting until the end of time. I really need to pay closer attention to these tutorials. #3 At the bottom of the VLC screen there is a loop icon (two arrows pointing in opposite directions). If that is toggled on, VLC will attempt to convert the video repeatedly... again, until the end of time. I have seen the end of time and it's not pleasant. Thanks, SuperPertinax. Your video was really helpful.
I've been searching so many programs to do this and it was so extra and cost money. This, however, is simple and easier than all the others. THANK YOU!
Thanks. I love VLC! I first encountered it because the lady who built my laptops (Rosa - wonderful lady!) put it on them. I'd never heard of it before. Since then, I've had the pleasure of exploring it (mostly through UA-cam videos). What an awesome program! Those students at the French university, who created it, are amazing! This thing can do so much handy stuff, that I can't imagine not having it. tavi.
I keep encountering NO AUDIO when trying to play outside of VLC, on Windows10 WMP or Movies, etc. I tried all permutations until I stumbled upon an answer! [Also, do note that you'll likely want to find the actual main film or section to rip, not all of it. So at 1:25 here, the Title must be selected accordingly (e.g., on my DVD the main film was Title 4). You will want all its Chapters, so leave it at 0.] The Audio track I wanted was 2. At 1:40 in this video, you can see the little wrench. Click it and go to the audio section. Select 'Keep original audio'. Click through and then it should work well enough.
I pick my title number also, but I also get it running through all the other titles on the disc very quickly that I haven't asked for which if it's got say 6/7 titles at 40 mins it runs through all them???
@@sairafazil8053 play the bit you want to rip and see what title number it is by looking under one of the sections at the top (can't remember what to click as not Infront of my pc). It will have all the title numbers listed but there will be a dot by the one your currently playing
I've tried VLC numerous times, but I'm never satisfied with the results. There's always quality issues with the output file, eg, lines, lagging, out-of-sync audio/video.
This video is very helpful! VLC is the best way to play DVDs lately as Windows 8 and 10 no longer come with DVD playing software anyways. I was worried I'd have to fiddle around with more third party softwares that try to get you to pay. Praise VLC!
SOLVED AUDIO - if you get the problem at 3:20 where by playing the file you get the wrong audio as default and don't want to change the audio track in the menu. At 1:15 in the box audio track, if you change the -1 to either 1 or 2 you will then rip it with the original audio as default. Might take a couple of rips to get the right one between 1 and 2 (I've found 2 normally is the right one)
I put it on 2 and did not get any audio; plus I had done the other suggestion at 1:40 and did the little wrench to "keep original audio". No luck yet on audio
In addition to this, I found for tv shows I didn't need to select the title. And it only had one language so I didn't need to touch any of those. But for some reason the audio would work on other players, but it would be distorted/bass-y. So I selected the wrench icon and selected mkv instead of mp4 and it is perfect. (I also selected the original audio box as well)
I have a very long video on a disc I was ripping. It had 4 hours runtime and was ripping in real time, literally a second per second. By 1 hour it crashed. How do I fix this?
Hey I have a problem when I try to convert it goes through the prosses and when it gets to the end of the movie it just keeps going and it still says converting any ideas?

Is there a method for just converting certain dvd files? For example, I have a dvd - R disc with a wedding on it and some other stuff. Is there a way to just rip the wedding to MP4? Another scenario is I have our school play which I converted from VHS to DVD. Is there a way of just converting the bits with me in to show people on my phone?
In my experience, this works very nicely with some movie DVDs but with others, no audio is saved. Can you suggest why this is happening e.g. do I need to adjust other settings or perhaps preferences?

you get winx dvd ripper. you have to pay for it but it works and uses hardware acceleration to transfer. typically a 2 hour movie takes 15-20 minutes on my i5 4000 series dell optiplex. i use vlc as a player only
i did exactly what you did, but my video is there but no audio - when i play the original dvd there is audio, but when i copy the way you said and listen to the copied version i have the video, but there are no audio?
What if I want to have the menu from the DVD included? I uncheck the box? However, so far, I can only get the first title ripped from the DVD. VLC is not ripping the other 4 chapters. I'm getting frustrated!
I'm writing this up to help those out that are having issues with their VLC rips. This is what I use... I use MakeMKV to rip my movies/tv shows. Then I use HandBrake to compress my videos. MakeMKV is very simple to use. 1. Simply load up the program 2. Select the optical drive you are putting the disc in 3. Open the optical drive, insert disc and close the optical drive. 4. Select the optical drive image in MakeMKV. Wait for it to load. 5. Go through the movie/tv show and match up to the one that is on the back of the box. Then rip away. This usually takes 20-35 mins to rip depending on your optical drive. PS. There are a few movies that have multiple files in them. Disney has usually 1-3 files that match the time for the movies and usually that's due to languages in the movie. Like the Disney logo or something like that. Lions Gate usually has a lot of protection files on their disc and I would advise staying away from ripping their movies (retail files not so sure but Netflix and Redbox does). If you see multiple angles being read at the end of the file name it's usually angle 1 that is correct. HandBrake is a great compression program but ironing out what file is correct is very hard. I advise not using it because you can rip the movie faster with MakeMKV see what the file is because sometimes same length videos can also be straight interviews with cast members and directors. HandBrake does have a learning curb to it too get the best quality out the videos you compress I advise you watch tutorials to understand more of what you are doing.
First: Thank you! But it works till: I moveed the ripped mp4-file in another folder! It looks like the mp4 and the Audio-Part is seperated, cause i cannot choose Audio anymore. Can i rip it WITH the Audio in ONE (mp4-)File? Can someone help me?🥺🙏
Thank you so much! I tried using “HandBreak(ripper) but it was complex. But this is simple! Is there anyway I can somehow convert resolution? Or make it 4K for my new TV? But thank you so much!
It's too bad. The destination folder does not fill in, therefore you can't rip the movie. Is there something I'm missing? It goes as planned until you try to choose the folder to point to and nothing happens. It seems you may have a different version of VLC and or not Windows 10 ?
Question: how would I go about doing this with a dvd that has several episodes on, rather than one film? How would I convert so episodes were separate files?
VLC works with some of my movie discs. As for others, I have to use WinX DVD Ripper Platinum which SuperPertinax recommends in the description part. This seems a great tool to bypass copy protection schemes.
I'm trying to rip a DVD and it only captures the first 10 seconds which is the warning not to pirate. Not sure if I can get around that - I do own the DVD and just want it on my computer!
Thank you very much for the excellent tutorial. However, my DVD has three separate videos. When the first video was converted and saved a message popped up before the second file saying if I decide to save the second video it will overwrite the first. How can I get around this? Thanks again.

I have a DVD containing what was originally concert footage captured to VHS tape from the 1980's. The aspect ratio is 4:3 (old school television tube dimensions). The DVD displays correctly in 4:3 format when played in VLC (with the black bars on each side), but when I convert the DVD to mp4, the resulting video is stretched to todays aspect ration - whatever that is, and it looks weird. Any idea how I can get the converter to retain the 4:3 ratio?

Thank you for posting this video. My problem is, I tried to play the recorded movie on my MacBook and it seems there's no audio track options like the PC. So, I can hear all narrations and commentaries at the same time while the movie is being played. If you know how to do it in a MacBook could you please make a video as well?

Maybe you can help me with and issue I'm having I'm trying to copy a DVD golf instructional video on my computer with VLC.

Please help, I'm tearing my hair out trying to figure out how to rip different chapters on the disc menu. I have a couple of home video's on my DVD disc that I recorded in chapters 1 and 2 on the disc menu.

When I tried to do Star Wars A New Hope the video didn't have any audio and was 1:40:00 instead of 2:04:49 do you know how to fix it or why it's doing that?
Hi I converted my first DVD to file no problem! The second time tryng another movie disc when I go to convert, set to mp4, then I get it ready and hit start, the whole box disappears where you hit start? Any Idea? Thanks
For some reason, I get this weird bug where the footage is played a tad faster than the audio track. Any Idea how I can fix that or is that some kind of strange DRM from the Star Wars DVD?
First of all thanks for the great video. I didn't know that VLC player was able to do that. And I have a question. If I use this method will it also download all the different subtitles in the DVD so that I can watch it with subtitles.
At 2:35 when you say you can only assume it is doing the audio tracks it isn't. It's quickly running through every title on the disk for some reason. I know because I am choosing my title and it is ripping that title but then after it quickly runs through every title on the disk which if you have a dvd with say 6 40min episodes it can take a while to quickly run through the 5 your not ripping

VLC is a fantastic player especially for its zoom and slow motion; most other players only have one or the other feature. BUT when will it ever be able to play 1080p BD movies?
Hey man, I did this so I can put the movie into a blank DVD but im scared the audio won’t show on the dvd since the audio only works on VLC itself when I play it with Movies&TV the audio doesn’t work, do you think the audio will show up on the blank DVD’s ?
Hi Jason, I’ve tried this a couple of times now, but it’s not recording the audio! I’m saving the rip to the desktop and then transferring it to a 16 GB micro card so I can then play video on MacBook which it does without audio, and my IPad doesn’t see it at all! Any ideas please! Thanks in anticipation! 👍
SuperPertinax hiya, yes I’m ripping it to windows 10 and saving it to my desktop, ( so it’s easy to find) and when it’s done it’s bit, I then send it to my ‘E’ drive where I have the sad card, it then goes through the sequence, the video is fine but no music or speech! Is present!

Nice, clear video. Will VLC rip a Blu Ray dvd ? Is a Blu Ray disc player necessary to use to rip it, or can a normal DVD player do the play part of the job?
@@SuperPertinax thanks. I figured this, but so many UA-cam videos about playing Blu-Ray discs in Windows 10, via VLC, etc... most of them are not clear on what you use to go from the disc into the computer. If I had a Blu-Ray player I would really not need to rip them into my computer...

I have tried several things but it keeps copying the 20 min workout only.
Thanks in advance.
Personally i would try using a little program called DVD Shrink, it will retain all your chapters etc
what about individual episodes like a tv series- i used this and managed to get one episode but not the others
Thank you for posting this video. My problem is, I tried to play the recorded movie on my MacBook and it seems there's no audio track options like the PC. So, I can hear all narrations and commentaries at the same time while the movie is being played. If you know how to do it in a MacBook could you please make a video as well? Or better yet, Is there a way to record the movie using VLC without the narration, commentaries or other languages? Thanks.
Maybe you can help me with and issue I'm having
I'm trying to copy a DVD golf instructional video on my computer with VLC. I've went through the process of convert/save, etc. It starts copying to a file on my desktop but stops at about 2.6 gigs. (The total download is 3.5 gigs)
I've been through this process twice with the same result. I have to be doing something wrong.
It is in a VOB format and I'm converting it to MP4
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance
you could try a free program called makemkv
@@SuperPertinax Thank you
Please help, I'm tearing my hair out trying to figure out how to rip different chapters on the disc menu. I have a couple of home video's on my DVD disc that I recorded in chapters 1 and 2 on the disc menu. I've successfully ripped the first chapter but I cannot get VLC to rip the second chapter on the disc menu. It always goes back to ripping the first one again. Any idea's?
My sound doesn't play. The little that it does play is out of sync. Any help?
Thanks mate I don't know F all about this stuff but I seen your video and I followed it step by step because I have this on my computer and it's working ,so we'll see how it goes but so far it's all good, much appreciated, cheers from Australia.
When I tried to do Star Wars A New Hope the video didn't have any audio and was 1:40:00 instead of 2:04:49 do you know how to fix it or why it's doing that?
Will I get all the video and audio if the DVD is scratched? Thank you
yes you will povided the ripping process completes, depends how bad the scratch is, and weather you can rip it.
Hi, I managed to convert my DVD to MP4 with VLC, but the audio is out of sync with the video. Is there a way I can fix this please?
take a look at this ua-cam.com/video/6B3u2PU2KfM/v-deo.html
Sir g screchesh dvd and cds any option to convert files please sugges my problems thanks sir
Straight to the point just the way it should be.. but I didn't get audio in my conversion any clue how I can fix that.
I'm new at this. I did record a DVD I made years ago. The DVD had some not wanted videos. How can I delete just some of the videos off of the VLC?
take a look at this ua-cam.com/video/SIufkwJ75gw/v-deo.html
Hi I converted my first DVD to file no problem! The second time tryng another movie disc when I go to convert, set to mp4, then I get it ready and hit start, the whole box disappears where you hit start? Any Idea?
Thanks
Thanks, helped alot! We need to normalize quick and easy tutorial videos like this.
Great to the pojnt video. I would have liked to hear a bit about copyright protection, does the VLC just bypass it or are there extra steps?
It’s bypasses, you should be alright if you restrict use of said media in question to home use
For some reason, I get this weird bug where the footage is played a tad faster than the audio track. Any Idea how I can fix that or is that some kind of strange DRM from the Star Wars DVD?
you can use track sync from the tools menu to add or decrease delay
Straight to the point thanks! I have a bunch of DVDS this is great to be able to have them saved like this thank you!
My recording is getting the playback but no sound. Does anybody know why this is happening?
How can I fix this?
Great information.. what version of VLC are you using? I have an older version which will not let me skip the previous.. thanks
at that time i think i was using 3.60, cant remember now
Can you record subtitles?
All I get is the Universal logo, no Derek and Clive. It states 1:28:00 when ripping.
TY for the video... will this process with on a MacBook Pro?
I have no idea sorry, i dont have a mac, but if you can install VLC on it then i dont see why not.
@@SuperPertinax Ty for your help ...I will give it a try.
Why isn't there audio in the converted video
been so long since i needed to convert or move dvd's onto a usb or hd ty for a very very precise and simple refresher
First of all thanks for the great video. I didn't know that VLC player was able to do that. And I have a question. If I use this method will it also download all the different subtitles in the DVD so that I can watch it with subtitles.

Hey! Does the DVD still work in other players after you rip it to your computer?
it works !!! but i have no volume and cannot share ??
At 2:35 when you say you can only assume it is doing the audio tracks it isn't. It's quickly running through every title on the disk for some reason. I know because I am choosing my title and it is ripping that title but then after it quickly runs through every title on the disk which if you have a dvd with say 6 40min episodes it can take a while to quickly run through the 5 your not ripping
when I do this its coming up as a .ps file when it is completed.
???? a .ps file???? A PS file is an image saved in the PostScript page description language. It may contain vector graphics, raster graphics, and text. PS files can be printed directly by a PostScript printer
@@SuperPertinax Im confused lol.
VLC is a fantastic player especially for its zoom and slow motion; most other players only have one or the other feature. BUT when will it ever be able to play 1080p BD movies?
Hey man, I did this so I can put the movie into a blank DVD but im scared the audio won’t show on the dvd since the audio only works on VLC itself when I play it with Movies&TV the audio doesn’t work, do you think the audio will show up on the blank DVD’s ?
i am not sure as this tutorial is only for ripping to computer, you should try "dvd shrink"
@@SuperPertinax thank you
Hi, will it be in 6 channel audio once I download it to my PC?
I think it will be Stereo only
Hi Jason, I’ve tried this a couple of times now, but it’s not recording the audio! I’m saving the rip to the desktop and then transferring it to a 16 GB micro card so I can then play video on MacBook which it does without audio, and my IPad doesn’t see it at all! Any ideas please!
Thanks in anticipation! 👍
Hi david, are you ripping this to a windows desktop? if so does it have audio before you transfer it?
SuperPertinax hiya, yes I’m ripping it to windows 10 and saving it to my desktop, ( so it’s easy to find) and when it’s done it’s bit, I then send it to my ‘E’ drive where I have the sad card, it then goes through the sequence, the video is fine but no music or speech! Is present!
SuperPertinax as to that question, I don’t think it does have audio before transfer, “ That I will have to check out” as cannot be sure!
How do I adjust the settings to get audio. I have no sound from the copy
Same ! It only works on VLC but on other apps the audio doesn’t show
There is no sound after, any ideas?
How can I have the subtitles separately so u can watch with or without subtitles please
Did this just how you showed and it gave me 2hr black screen with no sound ? Can you help me? Why is this?
Tried this but for some reason, it's not copying the entire film?
Trying this now. Does any one have a way to script this. Building a PC with a X amount of disc drive readers to help digitize my families DVD collection. I will Chat AI it & see how I go.
what version do you have? mine looks very different than yours and i can't see a Media bar icon. Cheers
Nice, clear video. Will VLC rip a Blu Ray dvd ? Is a Blu Ray disc player necessary to use to rip it, or can a normal DVD player do the play part of the job?
Hi Jon, you will need a blu-ray player to rip a blu-ray movie im afraid.
@@SuperPertinax thanks. I figured this, but so many UA-cam videos about playing Blu-Ray discs in Windows 10, via VLC, etc... most of them are not clear on what you use to go from the disc into the computer. If I had a Blu-Ray player I would really not need to rip them into my computer...
