2. • The iPhone series is a line of IOS powered phones from Apple Inc that was released
through June 29, 2007 to October 4, 2011. And the most popular are iPhone 3gs,
iPhone 4 and iphone 4s (5 generation). If you have one of the iPhone series and have a
large collection of movie DVDs, you can consider getting your favorite DVDs to
iPhone for on-the-go viewing. However, iPhone does not have a DVD drive for
playing DVD movies. In order to watch DVD movies on iPhone 3gs/4/4s, you have
to rip & convert DVD to iPhone supported video formats like H.264, MPEG-4 in MP4,
MOV, M4V with a DVD ripping/converting program.
• Here I highly recommend iSkysoft DVD Ripper for Mac, which is a decent
Mac DVD ripping & convering software, to rip DVD to iPhone 3gs/4/4s playable
videos on a Mac computer. It has excellent output quality and rich video settings.
This DVD iPhone video converter is one of the best Mac DVD to iPhone tools. In
addition, if you are a Windows user, please turn to this DVD ripper for Windows.
Below are the step-by-step tutorial show you how to transfer DVD movies to iPhone
3gs/4/4s for viewing.
