In 'Zoom' section, there are four options. 'Letterbox', 'medium', and 'pan scan' will convert 16:9 format to 4:3 format. The Full option does not correct the aspect ratio. If you have a 4:3 DVD, use the Full option. : : 6. In the 'Split' drop list box, we may select the size of the volumes that we would like to generate. : : Tips: a.

In the 'Tools' menu, select 'PSP Video Manager' to upload generated PSP video files to your PSP with ease. : : d. In the 'Preferences' window of the Settings menu, there are many settings to be adjustable. : : : : * Save your DVD drive: : : Create a temporary buffer to avoid having the DVD drive being switched on/off too frequently. If you use a RAM buffer you can also disable virtual memory to obtain an even faster ripping speed. The file will be written in your Windows temporary directory (TMP environment variable). : : * Luminance filter: : : Adjusts the brightness level. : : The Y plane is the luminance plane (in YUV format). Applies the formula: Gain*Y + Offset on the Y plane. Gain is an 8.8 fixed point value. (0 = 0.0 ; 128 = 1.0 ; 256 = 2.0 ). Therefore, (using an offset value of 0) a luminance filter value of 128 does not change the brightness level; whereas a value of 256 will double the brightness level. A value less than 128 darkens the movie. : : * Volume: : : Gain of the audio output. : : No normalization is performed; so, if the value is set too high, clipping of the audio signal may occur. A value of 1 can not generate distortion (crackling), but the output sound may be very low. The default value produces a good volume for most DVDs. You can make a few clips of the movie where you know the volume is high, and adjust this value in order to get a satisfactory volume. : : -- : : Transfer and sync iPod video to your iPod : : Set 'iPod 30G' or 'iPod 60G' as output format: Before ripping DVD to iPod MP4 video format, please make sure the 'Profile' is 'iPod(30G)' or 'iPod(60G). : : Playback the iPod video files: After converting video files to MP4, find the .mp4 file and drag it into your iTunes library, or select 'Add File to Library' from the 'File' menu and select the encoded movies. You can watch it with iTunes (Free) or Quicktime Player (Free) on your PC. : : Sync to iPod: Click 'File -> Update iPod'. : : Tip: You can download iTunes + Quicktime Player package from http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html : : -- : : Transfer and sync PSP video to your PSP : : Playback the PSP video files: The PSP video files converted can be played with Quicktime Player (freeware). : : Transfer to your PSP: Connect PSP to your computer using a USB cable. In your PSP, press "USB Connectivity" menu. If you use a memory card reader to transfer the video file, please connect your memory card reader to the computer. : : : : In your PSP, Create a folder called "MP_ROOT" and inside that folder create another folder named "100MNV01". : : Solution1: Transfer automatically : : In DVD Ripper Platinum, click "Tools -> PSP Video Manager " menu. You will see an explorer window that lists MP4 (video) files and THM (video thumbnail) files on your PC. You can transfer files by moving them to "\MP_ROOT\100MNV01". : : Solution2: Transfer manually : : Connect your PSP with PC, and copy those two files into "H:\MP_ROOT\100MNV01" (where "H" is the drive letter of your PSP). : : Re-name your files in PSP. You must re-name them to "M4Vxxxxx.MP4". "M" and "V" should be capital. There would be five random numbers followed "M4V". The numbers must be same for the two files. This is quite important, or your file can not be played on PSP.
