Have you ever tried using Handbrake or some other video conversion software and found it a bit overwhelming? Today, we’ll look at a more user friendly way to convert DVDs to video files using VidCoder.
您是否曾经尝试过使用Handbrake或其他一些视频转换软件,但发现它有些不知所措? 今天,我们将探讨使用VidCoder将DVD转换为视频文件的一种更加用户友好的方法。
VidCoder is a Windows application uses the Handbrake encoding engine and is basically a simplified, more user friendly version of Handbrake. Like most DVD ripping applications, VidCoder needs a helping hand to remove DVD copy protection. We could also use HD Decrypter to rip our DVD to the hard drive, or a commercial application like AnyDVD that removes DVD copy protection. For our example, we will use DVD43 to Decrypt our DVD on the fly while we convert our video. Of course, if your DVD is not copy protected, you can skip this step.
VidCoder是使用Handbrake编码引擎的Windows应用程序,基本上是Handbrake的简化,更用户友好的版本 。 与大多数DVD翻录应用程序一样,VidCoder需要帮助来删除DVD复制保护。 我们还可以使用HD Decrypter将我们的DVD翻录到硬盘驱动器,或使用商业应用程序(例如AnyDVD)删除DVD复制保护。 对于我们的示例,在转换视频时,我们将使用DVD43快速解密DVD。 当然,如果您的DVD没有版权保护,则可以跳过此步骤。
Note: DVD43 runs only on Windows 32-bit systems.
注意:DVD43仅在Windows 32位系统上运行。
