DRM. I am official hater of digital copy downloads...especially through iTunes. I use the DVD disc and use handbrake to rip my own digital copy. That way I can put it on my phone, or tablet regardless of brand or OS.

You can't play iTunes movies on your Samsung devices(non-apple devices) due to the DRM protection. You can use software(such as: AVS4Mac M4V Converter Plus, NoteBurner M4V Converter ....) to do the DRM removal. When you remove the DRM protection, you can play all you movies on Samsung phone.

Just got Lord of the Rings on Blu-Ray and it came with a digital copy of all 3 movies, I can either download it for Itunes or Windows Media Player. Will the Itunes one work on my Evo 3d?

although i dont know if itunes will work but i think it will, its because today is the first time i watch lord of the rings, which movie is the best?
HTC sync allows you to sync your phone with iTunes, so it may be that easy. It'll probably be a .mp4 file which can be played on the EVO 3D. No guarantees though, I can't say I've actually tried it. I'll get out a movie I have that came with digital copy and try it tonight if you want to wait.
EDIT: 3 minutes left for it to finish downloading to iTunes.
EDIT: Sync in progress
File in iTunes is in .m4v format, and it does copy to the EVO 3D if you tell it to sync with music from iTunes, but I haven't found a .m4v player in the marketplace that will play it yet.
Thanks, appreciate you testing that out. Wonder if you can convert the file before transferring it to the EVO.

I use DoubleTwist and it plays all my itunes.
So long as you find the file in your iTunes folder, you should be able to convert it over into just an .mp4 format. I was able to with one of the first digital copies I had.
Yep, you can convert it, I found out right before my power and internet connection went out. There are some free converters if you google it and some tutorials on youtube.
I just tested out doubleTwist suggested by ScottyBeGood, and it didn't work for the digital copy I'm testing with.

No worries, it's probably because it's a protected m4v file or something, I forget the technical term for it.
Hi XDA community
In what format should I convert videos for the Asus Transformer Prime, for a good quality.............
I have a movie (1.25 GB avi.) -> (. 3.12 GB MP4) format.
Used program =
- Xilisoft Video Converter Ultimate
- Profil Motorola Xoom / H.264 Video
- 1280x720
[Q]
- Is this normal (1.87 GB more)?
- Are there any conversion settings for the Prime (size, format, etc.)?
- Which program would you recommend?
Thank you for your help
You don't convert. The prime eat anything as long as you use a third party player like mxplayer.

Yup. This is one of the things that makes me happiest about moving from my iPad to an Android tablet.
You don't need to convert anything. You can play avi, mkv, wmv with a third party app.
I heard that Dice player is good. In my phone I used Mobo player or Mxvideo player.
thanks all
Missing Video Conversion
The conversion I'd like to understand is .wtv to playable on Android.
We've got quite a few computers in this household running Windows Media Center. They record OTA HD TV on a house server in .wtv (MSFT proprietary) format. But none of the players I've tried play .wtv out of box, yet.
And when the Win 8 slates appear, they WILL interoperate with .wtv and be harder to dislodge. So this would be a good time to source .wtv format files in a DLNA scheme.
I'm having issues playing WMV or M4V from BluRay digital copies.
Is there something that will play these types of files? MX Player does not work.
I don't have a wmv or m4v file at hand but you could try dice player. It's my favorite so far.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.inisoft.mediaplayer.trial
in the specs it states that it can run wmv and m4v

dude don't mess with that drm garbage. Even if it would work don't reward bad behavior (drm). My mom now hates drm because she mistakenly bought a couple movies on iTunes and now her reward for not bittorrenting it is they're now worthless to her in her tf101 (or any Android device). Just use tpb for what you need. Besides they can recommpress or remove drm in the time it takes you to poop. They're pros

These are heavily DRMed. If you did not get a Digital Copy version that is compatible with Android then you are screwed. The WMV is a heavily DRMed Windows file, and the M4V is for iTunes. Only a few BluRays were released that had an Android version too.
Honestly, if you have a BluRay player in your PC is easier to rip it to another format. Otherwise, you have to breach the DRM and convert it to a non-DRM version.
I hate the digital copy stuff, but the Ultraviolet stuff is kinda neat. At least you can use the Flixster (Movies) app to view them streaming on Android. However, only a few use it and its still a DRM nightmare.

Tell me about it! It's like I'm getting punished for "doing the right thing".
To be honest - I got the Back to the Future BR trilogy (I'm one of those huge nerdy fans) and thought: "Sweet, as a bonus - I'll get to play this back anywhere!" So I loaded up the M4V into iTunes (which works just fine with my Apple TV).
But I tried getting the movies on my tablet - where they really count (especially during travel) - and nothing.
It really is hard to "be good" when you pay for a product and then have to jump through hoops and over hurdles (wasting hours of your own time) to make use of something you OWN.
I can open up any BT client and get the full HD-BR rips in FAR less time than it'll take me to figure out how to get my rightfully purchased copies onto a media player (that I also own).
Thanks for the tips everyone!
How do you guys put files larger than 4GB on ur prime/SD card? Split the file?

The 4 GB limit is a FAT32 filesize limit. Only the SDCARD is FAT32 so this is should not true of the internal storage. If you download the file on your prime and store it on the internal storage it should work fine. If you need to put in on your SDCARD than you would need to split them or compress them to be under 4GB since it would be FAT32. Or you can store it some where else and stream it (if were are talking videos and on topic).
Try DVD Catalyst.
I use that to convert MY DVD's to work on my Nook Color. I have not looked if there is a preset for the Transformer Prime yet but I did copy some movies that I converted for the Nook to my TP and they look great.
Try EXTFAT
I formatted my external sdcard as extfat in Windows 7 and have a 7.50 gb blueray movie on it which plays flawlessly.
I know everyone keep giving high praise to MX Player but it has fail to HW decode all of my various MKV files. As for file size limitation, ATP can read NTFS just fine.

Prime have no problem with files larger than 4gb. Works good on the internal storage. And if you have a sdcard you format it to NTFS.
I have format my microsd to NTFS and played a 8gb mkv movie without problems

Sweet, I wasn't sure if the transformer support NTSF since its a windows format. so what's the difference between exfat and NTSF?

I agree, mx sucks, use bs player, everything is hardware accelerated.

I havent had any problems with MX.
It plays every MKV I throw at it, even those with heavily animated subtitles.
Full disclosure: They were all 720p, perhaps the HW v. SW decoding doesn't become seriously relevant until 1080?
Is there any DVD player for android platform ? All players I've tried can only play single VOB files.
'Not sure what you're trying to accomplish. Why not just rip your DVD to an AVI, MOV, etc. and be done with it? It'll end up taking less space.
Are you trying to preserve the menu browsing features inherrent to the DVD?
It will take less space indeed. The thing is that I use the prime only, it's just a matter of convenience to download a video and watch it straight away.
About menu browsing - not really. All I want is a software that can 1) play right VOBs in right order 2) choose subtitles 3) choose soundtrack
If you already download yor movies and dont use a dvd disc player why do you download dvds???
I suggest you start to download mkv movies instead. You get multiple audio track and subtitles with moving to and you get better quality and the file can be played directly on Prime
Asus Prime & Tapatalk
From the title I thought he meant an external dvd player lol...but is there such thing? maybe even an external bluray player?
sorry kinda going off topic..

After trying 10+ different players I ended up doing exactly this: downloading a mkv file
It's just that the only non-dvd versions were small ~700 mb-ish files.
It's time to forget DVDs and move on with the progress
I've played region-free, non-css DVDs using MX Player... but haven't tried others yet...

Certainly. If you can't find a USB DVD player, you can use a SATA to USB adapter.

Hi All,
Having moved over to an S3 from a iPhone... and leaving Apple forever... I'd like to get access to all my iTunes music. Don't care about playlists and stuff... just want the music.
Questions...
1. Is there a way of getting all the music out of iTunes and into another desktop replacement for iTunes?
2. Obviously I ultimately want to get all my music onto my S3... so bearing that in mind, what the best way of integrating my phone with a desktop music player?
Ultimately I want to completely uninstall iTunes and remove Apple from my life totally!!!
Many Thanks for your advice
Either find you itunes folder and place on device or upload to Google music And store it in da cloud

I should have said, I'm in the UK... and Google Music doesn't work here. So not an option.
There must a good way of transferring all my music from iTunes to a different desktop player which will integrate with an Android device?

if you use a pc than you can use the windows media player to synchronize your phone with your local music library. since the galaxy s3 mounts as mtp device media player will recognize it when plugged in (while media player being open) and ask you if you want to sync your stuff onto it.
another method would be installing samsung kies onto your system. i think it can sync your media files to the phone as well.
if u want cable usb tranfer
winamp is ur best bet, its a bit buggy but it works.
if u want wireless tranfers. u now have 50gb+ on dropbox, buy dropsync from store.
it amazing. it only syncs what u need, do it over wifi, to save money.
Samsung Easy Phone Sync
I think this is what you're after
http://easyphonesync.com/
There is a desktop & phone app that does exactly what you need.
Recommended by Samsung when they released the S3 as a way of getting people off iphones when their main reason for not switching was "all my songs are in itunes"
I used it myself, worked perfect although depending on how much stuff yo have you may need an extra mem card:silly:
:good:

If your on windows then open the music folder and click folder properties and unhide all files. After you done that a folder called iTunes media will appear, Click it and all your songs are there.
If you're on mac then in the search preferences click unhide all files and click it, after that go to your music folder and find the iTunes media folder and drag all the music into your s3..
i use the app iSyncr from Google Play Store, it lets u sync your Playlists, albums, last played it also supports ratings and play counts.
there's also a wifi sync support.
Their is a thread possibly a sticky for moving from ITunes but it might be in SGS2 forum .

if by apps or movies you purchased in the app store then no you cannot transfer them over to your xtz
the apple app store and the google play store are two separate things

No you don't need to convert movies like for the ipad, just copy-paste them to your SD-CARD.
But the tablet doesn't support all formats like MKV, DTS, etc. If you want these get MX player from play store.
If you've purchased the movies through itunes then they are very likely to have apples own copy protection on them and they will only play on registered apple products. If however you have purchased them elsewhere and copied them in to itunes then you may have more luck copying them onto your XTZ.
