How to Download DVD Movies to Zune – Put a DVD on Your Zune

Vikram Singh asked:


If you own a Zune Media Player then you I’m sure you want to utilize the full features of the device by watching some movies on it, after all watching a movie on a long train ride would probably be much more enjoyable than listening to some music. However if you want to put a DVD on your Zune or transfer a movie you downloaded off the net onto the device then you will need to know how to convert DVDs into the Zune media player format. So that is what I’m going to show you in this article, I will show How to download DVD Movies onto your in one easy step and also quickly cover a 3-step conversion process that you may attempt to Put a DVD on your Zune.

First of all if you are looking for places to download DVD quality movies on the net then you could download some of the latest movies from P2P Sharing Networks, personally I use Limewire. It is a great program that is free to download and you can find most of the latest movies in DVD quality. The Zune Media Player uses the mpeg-4 or WMV Video Format, so try to download your movies in this format in order to transfer the movies onto the Zune easily. If you download in any other format such as avi, divx,, mpeg etc. then you will have to convert them into the Zune formats and you will need some help.

Now in order to put avi, mpeg, divx, xvid (any type of video format) or put a DVD on your Zune you will need video converter software. You could put DVD movies on there by following a 3 step conversion process; however it is fairly time consuming and can become quite annoying and tedious if you are constantly putting different movies on the device. Anyhow here is how you would go about it; first you would need to decrypt the DVD onto your hard drive, you will need to obtain a program that allows you to do this. Next you will need to convert it into avi format; again you need another program for this task, and then you will have to convert that file into mpeg4 (Zune Format), and finally after all that you will be able to upload it onto your Zune.

If you download a lot of movies or have plenty of DVD movies lying around the house that you would like to put on your Zune, then I would strongly recommend downloading a good DVD to Zune Video Converter Program. These program are specifically designed to transfer DVDs and other video formats onto the Zune player and they can do it all at the click of a single button, all they leave for you is to do is simply sync the movies onto your Zune. They seriously simplify the process of putting movies on your Zune and the great thing is that not only will you be able to put movies on your Zune but also any other type of MP4 Media Player ( e.g. iPod, iPod Touch, iPhone, etc.). Plus most program offer a free download these days, so it is a much more convenient option than attempting any conversion on your own.

I personally use the Cucosoft DVD to Zune Converter, it is a great program that is free to download and it will convert almost any type of video into Zune video format in a few minutes. So no matter where you download your movies from, whether it is Limewire or Youtube you will be certain you can put them onto your Zune at the click of a few buttons. Therefore the easiest way to download movies To Zune or put a DVD on your Zune would be to grab a Zune Video Converter. Believe me you will not have enough time to watch all the movies that will be on your Zune once you have the right tools.
