In the previous entry I’ve described the process of ripping DVD movies into the formats readable by iPhone. This entry will deal with the same procedure, but this time for Mac OS computers.
Let me remind file formats supported by the iPhone:
1. H.264 video (max 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second), Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio max 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
2. H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
3. MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
So, here you are, converting DVD movie to iPhone on Mac OS:
As was mentioned in the previous entry, the software I was using is DVD to iPhone Converter. It provides you with the possibilities to get the video you like such as minimal size video, high quality video. With the great number of settings you can customize almost everything.
At the same time you can rip parts of videos (setting “start time” and “end time”).
1. Get DVD and Video to iPhone Converter Suite for Mac (you can get it here)

2. Insert the DVD you want to convert into your DVD drive
3. Open the application and press DVD button to load the movie, choose the output format and other parameters
4. Press Convert to start ripping.
Another thing I would like to touch upon today is other video converting to iPhone formats on Mac OS.
Supported input formats:
- AVI
- MOV
- MPEG
- DivX
- WMV
- VOB
- XviD
1. Get DVD and Video to iPhone Converter Suite for Mac (you can get it here)

2. Launch the application and add the video files you want to rip by pressing the Add button
3. Select all the desired settings (like audio channels, size etc.) or leave them default
4. Press “Encode” to start converting
