Do people still rip DVDs?

I am out of the loop on this.  I have a 14 hour car trip coming up.  I have 2 kids.  I have an android tablet.  I have kids DVDs.

 

What is the best way to rip the DVDs?  And then play them on the tablet?  I went and got older and forgot all of the software I used to use for such things.

 

I would also like to be able to reduce the quality of the video files to preserve file size.

 

Kisses,

I bought a two screen dvd player at target over a year ago for about $70. It uses the cigarette lighter. Id suggest that instead of spending time with what you are talking about.

Bittorrent them....that still works for kiddy stuff.  Been there, done that lately.

 

Where do you go to search for torrents these days?  The site I used to use when I last did such a thing (ie circa 2008) is now defunct.

The big torrent site from back in the day is still up....and 70% of what ours watch isn't on DVD as of yet.  Stupid Paw Patrol...

 

 

 

What I did was ripped what I could still find the DVDs for (or better yet, ones that aren't scratched all to hell), uploaded it to my NAS, and also to this little gizmo that I absolutely love for long trips where they both want to watch something different on their tablets, but doesn't have to take up internal storage on them:

It comes with a 32Gb microSD card, but I replaced it with a 64Gb so they can have more crap and lessen me getting bugged.

To answer the question, honestly I believe your best bet would be to buy the dvd player already mentioned or to bring along a laptop.

Ripping and converting is pretty time consuming. The best dvd ripping programs are old and nearly obsolete now. Most modern programs will not rip a copy written dvd.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
