How To Rip Dvds, And Print Scenes From Videos With Your Printer


There are several software programs available for ripping CDs. However, ripping DVDs is not so common and many PC users are not fully aware of the procedure involved in ripping DVDs. Let us examine the steps involved in ripping DVDs. 1. In the first place, you should have the right for copy the DVD for your personal use. Notice that it is illegal to copy DVDs for every purpose. 2. Due to legal hurdles, the DVD ripping programs are not very easily available. Therefore, you could use a popular search engine like Google to locate suitable software. The products may not be offered by any reputed companies. 3. Once you have obtained the free soft ware launch it on your computer. Broadly, the program should be able to read the DVD and extract digital files to encode the contents of the file into a file format that can be read by your PC. 4. Now you can use the DVD drive on your computer and follow instructions for ripping. 5. You now need a DVD decrypter. Though this is a free program, not many are distributing the program and you should have the patience to search and obtain the right program. 6. You should now install the decrypter on your computer. Once the installation is complete, open the program. 7. The DVD you intend ripping should now be inserted in the DVD drive of your PC. 8. Most DVDs have huge storage and ranges between 6 and 8 GB. Therefore, you should ensure that your hard disk has adequate free space. 9. When you are looking to burn this ripped DVD to a new 4.7GB DVD, shrinking it would be a great idea because often the original DVD has more than 4.7 GB of data. You need to find very good DVD shrink software to achieve this. 10. Close to a dozen individual files may be created in the process of ripping. A new folder for each DVD on the hard disk would be more convenient for you. Printing Video Scenes When you look to print images from your video, two key elements need attention. The first is grabbing the image and second is the ability to print an image that is usable where the source is not of print quality. While the extraction is relatively simple, getting a print that looks great is a bit more complicated. Windows movie maker and WinDV are good applications for importing the video to your PC. With the Windows movie maker, you will choose the clip with the frame to be exported to video collection, scroll to that frame and click on "take picture" button. The resulting clip will be 640Ч480 and should be saved the hard disk.
