1) Rip your DVD files from DVD-ROM drive by clicking “Open DVD”.

DVD files often compose of many video chapters. In default setting, this software will help you convert multi DVD files into one file, so if you just want to convert some chapters of the DVD, you could cancel the click in front of the title, select the chapters you want to convert and click the box in front of it. The “estimated size” will let you know the approximate output files size.
Step 4: Customize output screen, cut black margin

DVD Movies often with black margin on the top and button of screen, if you want to play your DVD on your PocketPC with full screen, you could cut the black margin. While playing the DVD, a yellow frame will appear beside the scene, you could drag the yellow line to cut any parts you don’t want.
Step 5: Option Setting
Click the “setting” icon to open the “Option” window. Here you could use the drop-down list to set values for “Resolution”, “Framerate”, “Codec”, “Video Bitrate”, “Ratio”, “Audio SampleRate”, and “Channels”.

Tips:
1. DVD subtitle (sub picture), language:
It is recommended to use the native DVD menu in the preview panel to set subtitle (sub picture) and language. You may also change the subtitle (sub picture), language in the program's Options menu, but there are some DVDs that require the change must be made in the native DVD menu instead of the program's menu.
2. Video Frame Rate
Known as Frame per Second (FPS). It refers to the number of pictures displayed in 1 second in order to form continuous motions. The default frame rate is “keep original frame”. You may choose 30fps (29.97 actually) get more continuums motions. When selecting 30fps, increase the movie quality and size a little bit. This is because more frames need some amount of additional motion data to be stored.
3. Crop DVD Clips
After loading the DVD files to be converted, while playing the DVD, a yellow frame will appear beside the scene, you could drag the yellow line to cut any parts you don’t want, and then only the desired section of the DVDs will be converted.
4. Audio Sample Rate
The higher audio sample rate, the better audio quality. There are 3 audio quality modes to choose: 22050 Hz, 32000 Hz and 44100 Hz.
5. Audio Volume
You can set proper volumes of the export from the drop down list; the available ratio range is from 0% to 200%. Once 0% is selected, the audio track in the source file will be ignored.
