So after ripping "Taken2" DVD, using my new fangled copy of WinXDVD Platinum (to quickly accomplish same as Decrypter+Handbrake in Windows) I tried dragging the movie onto my iPad2 in iTunes only to see....

"Taken 2 was not copied because this movie cannot be played on iPad2".

Enter my reply.......WTF????? 😡

So I do another rip with Decrypter + Handbrake using the typical iPad settings with nothing tweaked, just plain jane. SAME RESULTS!!! WTF x 2!!! 😡😡

So after much debate about what codecs were used, audio, etc. I put the movie on a usb drive (the original one I did in WinXDVD) and take walk over to my laptop where I drag & drop in iTunes RIGHT ONTO MY IPAD WITH NO PROBLEM WHATSOEVER!!!

Now, both computers are set up almost identically and certainly iTunes is. So why can I drag/drop the movie no problem on my laptop & not on the desktop???
