Hi BJ.1. Yes, you can rip them to your hard drive as video files, there are quite a few video converters around that'll do this. when i had to rip to AVI format for example, i used a program called bitripper.
http://www.bitripper.com/2. Yes, depending on which model of mobile you buy. Some have HDMI ports on them but you're obviously paying more for them and you may not necessarily get the HD quality. you may as well by a separate media center for £25 for your PC that'll play from SD cards, hard drives etc but that isn't necessarily accessible.
3. No idea about this as only certain DVD's come with AD. to be honest, the americans seem to have more described content, or maybe i'm not looking hard enough here in the UK.
all the best, Mo. On 20/01/2013 13:22, BJ Edwards wrote:
Hi, I've been delving into netflicks and other such providers and it seems there are very dfew, if any films with audio description. So, this leads me to my next question! I have a fairly large collection of DVDs, in fact they are becoming increasingly harder to keep tabs of. So: 1. Is it possible to rip them onto an external hard drive, preserving the image and audio tracks? 2. Is it then possible to put a handful of desired films onto a micro SD card and play them on a mobile in two ways, just through the mobile, and on a TV via an HDMI cable 3. Are there any sites with downloadable, buyable films that are the theatrical or commercial releases, IE with a choice of AD or not? Many thanks BJ?

If you're not, it's likely to be a very expensive film option and you might be better off with Netflix. I'm afraid I don't know how accessible either app is under Androyd, but they both work well under iOS.

To this end I have a few questions. 1. I am trying to decide between the Experia Galaxy S, the Sony Ericson Pro and the Sony Ericson Mini Pro. I have had some excellent help from Mo, but I wonder what other people think. Which handset has the better sound quality in terms of listening to audio with headphones and external amp/speakers? 2. I want to watch films on my shiny new phone. Has anybody had experience of Netflicks' Android app? if so, how accessible is it? and, is there a real, practical alternative to Netflicks if I want to stream films?
