I just downloaded this program, so I don't even know what SHOULD happen. But the files dl'ed as zip files, I extracted those, and then a window opened telling me to browse the destination of the DVD or drive. I have, for a specific example, The Office Season 1 in my drive (maybe TV shows make it not work, I don't know..), it starts scanning...scans allllll the way through, 22 of 22, but then when it's done it says "scanning failed" and there's nothing else I can do, no other options to click. I tried taking the disk out, putting it back in, the same thing happened.
What do I do?
Thanks.
Scanning Failed

I don't know what that is. Last night I was searching all night to find something to move DVDs to my iPod and the first thing I found was a DVD Decryptor and something called Videora. Needless to say, they didn't work. So my boyfriend found this site:
http://www.methodshop.com/gadgets/tutorials/handbrake/
And told me it was an all-encompassing program and I wouldn't have to decrypt AND use another program to move the files to my iPod. So I dl'ed it this morning...and...I'm lost.
What should I use? All I want to do is move DVDs that I already own on hard disc to my iPod...nothing fancy. Well, for TV series discs, I want to be able to select each episode seperately once they are on my iPod, I don't want them strung together like a movie.

Have a read through that. Basically the Windows port of Handbrake is not an all-in-one solution. You'll need to have "DVD 43" or a similar application open to decrypt the DVD on the fly.
If you have downloaded the command line interface (which I suspect you have if the file is a zip package) then you'll want to download:

After I left my computer encoding ALLL day...the file won't open. Windows doesn't know what program to use. It won't drag into my iPod, it won't even drag into iTunes. When I double click it to just open it, it tells me that Windows doesn't recognize what kind of file it is. What now? This is so frustrating..

I have the same problem - windows version of Handbrake. For my first attempt I used a commercial DVD that had been copied and without the encryption. The machine took 9 hours to process, and saved a file as movie.m4v.melanie610 wrote:After I left my computer encoding ALLL day...the file won't open. Windows doesn't know what program to use.

Itunes won't recognize it, you can't open it with either I tunes or quick time, and there is no dragging it manually to anything because it won't get added to any list to drag it from.
Any suggestions.
