In Response To: Purchased iTunes video to DVD. Anyone know how? (J242)

: Man, this is driving me nuts. I've purchased too much via iTunes and now that
: I have a DVD burner I was interested in converting my purchased shows to a
: readable format that I can then press to a video DVD so I can watch on my
: awesomely huge screen TV. Unfortunately every single damned app I can find
: even mentioning the process is Windows only. Half of the pieces of shit
: even show screen-shots from OSX but the download is an EXE! WTF?
: Grrr, anyone have any ideas short of a shotty screen capture utility or
: sending to a video iPod, plugging in to VCR and recording, then re-ripping
: and pressing all over again with such a rediculous amount of work?
Your options are 3:
1) Use Snapz Pro to capture the video while its playing off the screen to a format that can be burned to DVD.
2) Capture your video stream output to a recording device such as a stand alone DVD video recorder (or a VCR, but you're undergoing a lot of A/D conversions to get to DVD then.)
3) Point a camcorder at your Mac screen, play the video, capture the video to your computer and burn to DVD. (Worst option.)
OK, so those are all somewhat of a joke (especially the third), though if your computer is fast enough the first would give the best results. No one has broken Apple's video encryption yet. Apparently "DVD-Jon" is working on it, but has nothing to show yet.
Legalities aside I'm sure you can find the content you have acquired somewhere, and morally if you've already payed for it I don't see a problem with this. It will probably be of higher quality anyway (stuff downloaded from iTunes is likely to look pretty shitty on a big screen anyway).
