I think Handbrake USES VLC to decode the DVD so you will need both installed on either your mac or pc to rip and convert.

I use it to put MY DVD's onto the PS3 for ease of being able to just turn on and shut the kids up.

Brilliant and if you have a Quad core pc it uses everything to convert so its quicker.

Love it.

I used to use Handbrake but i think it's feeling a bit dated nowadays, particularly in terms of it's interface.

I now use RipIt which is far more Mac-like, and also quicker.

I've got vlc too but never figured it out. How do you rip a DVD using vlc?
Thats the beauty of VLC is that you dont need to convert the file format. All you need to do is in iTunes when the iPad is plugged in scroll down and you will see a VLC logo which you click 'add' and add the film or video and then when in the iPad open the VLC app.

I recommend Jailbreaking it so you can download all three of the VLC apps but that is a whole different kettle of fish  :laugh:

use winavi, you can download it for free using a torrent, it does take a bloody age to convert though, like 45 mins!
