Cucusoft DVD to iPad + iPad Video Converter Suite 8.8

This is a suite that combines a DVD ripper and a file converter for the iPad. If you are planning to buy these tools from Cucusoft, you'll save some money, because you won't need to buy a ripper and a converter separately. Having this suite installed in your system, you can convert any DVD movie and any file to formats that are played on the iPad.

There are only three buttons in the main window of the program: one for the ripper, one for the converter and one to exit the program. When you move your mouse over each button, you can see its short description.

The DVD ripper is pretty standard. It supports both direct and batch modes. It can convert your DVD movies to a variety of formats, in both audio and video. It uses conversion profiles to make the process easier for you. For video, it supports the H.264 and MPEG-4 formats. And for audio, it supports .MP3 only. There are some profiles for iPod as well, but it is not specified for what type of iPod.

The video converter has a custom-built interface. It shows a small window where you select the file and the conversion profile and a picture of an actual iPad where you can preview your video before converting. The conversion profiles are the same for both tools.

All in all, this suite gives you all the tools that you need to convert DVD movies or video files so that you can play them on your iPad. It has excellent format support, an OK interface, and it works well. It is also cheaper than buying these apps separately.
