When DVD first appeared, many people bought a lot of DVDs to watch. To this day, some people still have a pile of DVDs in their drawers. Maybe sometimes I will play a DVD again on a DVD player. However, if the DVD player is broken, it will cause the DVD to be unable to play. So the best way is to transfer the DVD to iPad and other digital devices for playback.
Obviously, DVD cannot be played directly on iPad, even if we load the DVD into the computer, we cannot transfer the DVD to iPad. Because the format of DVD is unique, most portable devices do not support these formats. So we can only convert DVD to video format and then transfer the video to iPad for viewing.
