Definitely best to rip all of your DVDs onto a nice big hard disk on your Mac and then sync whichever ones you want onto the iPad.
This way you don't run the risk of scratching or getting dirty fingerprints on the DVDs, you also have instant access to the DVDs without being forced to sit through all the cruft at the start of the DVD that you can't usually fast forward thru and you can keep your originals safely locked away as a backup. I wish I had done this with our complete set of 3 Lord Of the Rings DVD box sets. We still have the empty DVD cases but the discs themselves have somehow disappeared never to be seen again. I never got around to ripping them onto our lounge room iMac's Drobo RAID array so now we are down almost a dozen very expensive discs. :-( -Mart On 24/03/2012, at 5:45 PM, Adrian Skehan <adrianske...@me.com> wrote: > Good afternoon all! > > Does anyone know if there is a way of viewing video from a DVD on the iPad 3 > by having it on a portable device of some sort?
