How to Digitize DVD Collection With Original Quality

You’ll learn an easy way to digitize DVDs to video files for hard drive, mobiles, TV, streaming servers, etc. You’ll see fast conversion speed and no quality loss.

I have a positively insane DVD collection. Like, two entire dressers legitimately overflowing plus over a dozen piles around them. What can I say – I love my movies (and I used to work at a DVD store which was definitely an enabler, lol)

Now, I’m away at school for most of the year. All the while, my DVDs just sit at home. I can’t even count how many times I’ve wanted to watch a movie only to realize that I didn’t have it with me or on Vudu. I’d very much like to digitize my DVD as many of them as I can, both for myself and my college friends.

I tried using Handbrake…..but there was either no sound or it was all static once it was converted. I also tried VLC, also did not work. Are there any softwares or methods of converting DVD to digital free that I can give a shot?
