of features right here but our main focus is only on DVD copy so we click on DVD here and at the top you can see there are different options you can convert directly from a DVD disk from a DVD folder or from ISO file so in this tutorial I'm planning to show you how to copy directly from a DVD drive so we click on DVD disk and it automatically recognize my DVD so I click on done now it adds in this is my DVD there are seven chapters in here I just let it take all of them because I want it to be combined into one single video file next is you need to click on target format so you can see here there are different options for you to choose we have General profiles this one provide recommended formats for you for example MP4 m o for iPhone iPad Android H VC MP4 W ebm video and if you only want to copy the whole DVD as a DVD itself or as an image file these are the options for you you can select DVD backup they have full title copies which include backup title audio video subtitle or main movie content copy if you want to clone it into ISO file this is the one or turn it into MKV and a lot more options down here for Apple device Huawei Samsung Android pad Android mobile Microsoft device Sony device for YouTube video Facebook video Vimeo and even for DVD profile like ntsc DVD format or P DVD format you can even convert it to 4K HD video TV video and music but the one I want to show you today is copying your DVD and converting them into MP4 videos so I will select General profiles and click on the recommended MP4 video with h264 codec that is the standard MP3 file format so I just click on that click on done now if you want to customize your MP4 format you can also do so by clicking on this icon here the setting icon you take a look at the top left it start with quality if you wanted to convert fast you can do so as well but the quality is low if you want to convert with high quality video you have to select slow which mean it will take more time to convert but in my situation I just click to select default and down here here we have video Codec options we have video Codec frame rate you can keep original or you can select the ones you want resolution the same if you want to keep the original resolution you can do so as well or you can just click on custom here to change the video resolution or just click to select one of the options say in my case I would choose HD video 1920 by 1080 and everything else I would keep it the same and once everything is done I click on done here next is you will take a look at the chapter this DVD has it has seven chapters I select all of it to merge them into one video you can see here so this is automatically select for you if you don't want them to merge you can also untick this but in my case I would merge them into one video file and if you want to rename your converted video you can do so as well by clicking on rename here and then rename it to the way you want and because this video is about animal I just put animals this one animals if you want to add artw work to it you can do so as well but in my case I just leave it like that click on done and if we take a look at this side here we have Hardware acceleration engine if you have compatible Hardware that can help boost the conversion process to be faster you can do so as well by clicking on option here and if you take a look at my case here is a hardware info detected by video prop converter AI in this case it does not detect any hardware acceleration engine Intel or NV or AMD that's why they say none but if you have like if you're running Windows computer with NV or Intel processor it will be able to detect that and help you to convert faster so in my case I don't have so I just click on okay and the CPU core here so if you're using Mac computer it will have more core to use or if you're using the latest Windows computer also you may have advanced CPU core with like 16 no8 CPU call you can select it from here but in my case only two so I leave it like that but default you can also select the output where you want this to save but you want to change just click on browse and I select on desktop click on select so it will save on my desktop so if everything is checked out you can start the conversion process by clicking on run here so the process will start you just have to wait for it okay now the process is done you can see that it shows me the converted file so so the file size is 2.9 GB if you want it smaller you can select 720p but because I selected the HD version which is 1920 by 1080 that's why the F size is kind of big let's see this video what it looks like after the conversion so you can see here it's in HD so it's beautiful because I'm using screen recording that's why you don't hear the sound
