You would like to watch your favorite home video DVDs using a mobile phone? AVS Video Converter enables you to convert your home video DVD to a necessary format and then upload it to the mobile phone using special application.

Download and install AVS Video Converter . After the download is finished, run the 'AVSVideoConverter.exe' file and follow the installation wizard instructions.

Run AVS Video Converter and select your input video file . To select a video you would like to convert hit the Browse... button next to the Input File Name field. In the opened Windows Explorer Window browse for the necessary DVD folder.

  • Note: when your input is a DVD Disc, you will need to select the path to your source file: X:\Video_TS\Video_TS.IFO. "X" stands for your DVD-ROM or the hard disk drive folder where your DVD is stored.
  • It is usually safe to select the IFO file, rather than VOB file, because the IFO file contains the information about the entire DVD structure and this way you will avoid audio and video de-synch problems when converting. Also, most DVDs have several VOB files (files with actual video) and if you convert VOBs instead of IFO, you will have to merge them afterwards, which is not the case with the IFO files.
  • After you have selected the VIDEO_TS.IFO file click the Advanced >> button. Normally the program will select the longest DVD title that usually corresponds to the main movie on the disc. You can check that clicking the drop-down arrow near the Video -> Track box.
  • If you prefer to convert files that are located on your hard disk drive, please make sure that you copy not only VOB files, but IFO files as well.

Set up the conversion parameters . After you have selected the video input file, press To MP4 button on the main panel. In the list of Profiles (MP4 Profile Field) select one of the offered iPod profiles. You can also click Edit Profile button to manually set the iPod profile parameters.

  • For novice users it is recommended to select one of the default iPod profiles:

    • Apple iPod - (H.264, 320*240)

    • Apple iPod - (H.264, 640*480)

    • Apple iPod - (MPEG4, 320*240)

  • You can also click Edit Profile button to manually set the iPod profile parameters.
