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.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
