Hi Forum,

I have a bunch of home movies that I copied on my imac via DVD. I would like to put some of these on my itouch and use handbrake to convert.

My problem is that Handbrake does not recognize the source code from the file on my imac. It will only recognize the video and convert it if I use the original DVD.

Is there a way to convert from my mac, or do I need to always use my DVD's?

Thanks,

cfs
 
What happens when you click browse in the source section? Can you navigate to the folder where the ripped DVD files are located?

Yes, I can navigate. But when i finally get to the Video TS there is a list of icons to choose from. When I choose one, it says source code not found. Do I need to choose a specific one?

Thanks for replying. If I am not explaining myself well, please let me know.

You click on the Video_TS folder and just select that. Handbrake will scan all those files and find the track you need.
