Rip/Sync Blu-ray to iTunes with forced subtitles for iPad, iPhone, iPod, Apple TV

Do you want to make Blu-ray portable on Apple devices? Want to preserve forced subtitles of Blu-ray on iTunes? This article mainly introduces the way to sync Blu-ray movies to iTunes.

Blu-ray HD movies can give you great detail and sharpest bright colors. There are no details that can escape from HD movies even an aging actress's wrinkle. When you already have a Blu-ray, most of you are not willing to repurchase it with ridiculous prices from iTunes. But Blu-ray cannot be played directly on your Apple devices like iPhone, iPod, iPad, iPad Mini or Apple TV because of lacking Blu-ray player. How to make Blu-ray portable with Apple devices? The answer is to rip Blu-ray to iTunes compatible videos so you can transfer them to your iPhone, iPad, iPod, or stream to Apple TV etc for playback.

What you need is a professional Blu-ray Ripper that can help you to remove the protection of Blu-ray and then convert to iTunes supported videos formats like MP4, MOV etc with outstanding video quality. What's more, some Blu-ray contains the unknown language like Avatar and you cannot understand it without subtitles. So to keep the subtitles for unknown language is necessary for full enjoyment. In this case, Pavtube BDMagic (now you can get 30% off) is the ideal software to you. It will help to rip and convert Blu-ray to a mass of videos formats with fast speed and high video quality. 


Moreover, you can choose the desired subtitle for output and select forced subtitles for some unknown languages. Now let's go to learn how to do it.

How to convert Blu-ray to iTunes with forced subtitles for iPad, iPhone, iPod and Apple TV?

Get your Blu-ray drive ready and insert Blu-ray you need to the drive. And keep networked when ripping Blu-ray.

Tips: If you are running on Mac, please try BDMagic for Mac.

Step 1. Load Blu-ray to Blu-ray to iTunes Converter.

Run the best Blu-ray to iTunes Converter, click "Load file" button to select the inserted Blu-ray and import it for transferring to iTunes. It will take only few seconds to rip Blu-ray. Then the software will recognize the actual main title of Blu-ray and pick it automatically. You do not need to look for the main title manually.

Press the selected main title you can preview the whole Blu-ray movies on the preview window on the right, which works like a media player.



Step 2. Check forced subtitles for output.

Because Blu-ray always contains multiple subtitle and audio tracks, you can go to choose the desired subtitle and audio on the interface for output.

Beside subtitles option, "Forced subtitle" is optional and uncheck by default. Go to check "Forced subtitles" for output. Take note that it will output forced subtitles only if it is checked.

Step 3. Choose iTunes compatible format for Apple devices.

Choose the iTunes supported formats in the "Format" dropdown list. You can go to "Common Video" or "HD Video" options to find what you like. I think MP4 format is better for iTunes.

But, here you are recommended to choose the Apple devices like iPad, iPone, Apple TV, etc directly. Find a suitable format under these Apple devices options.

Tips: For some advances users, you can go to adjust video and audio parameters like bitrate, resolution, channels, etc. Click "Settings" button you can go to check and change them as you like.

Step 4. Convert Blu-ray to iTunes.

Before conversion you can go to "Browse" your computer to find the folder for output files. Then click "Convert" button to get Blu-ray to iTunes conversion started. After a while, you can find the generated file for iTunes quickly via "Open" button.

Now open your iTunes and then sync the ripped Blu-ray movies to iTunes library for convenient playback on Apple devices. In this way, you can enjoy your favorite Blu-ray with forced subtitles on your iPad/iPhone/iPod wherever you are.

Free Convert C300 multi audio channels MXF files to FCP X, FCP 6/7 with best quality

How to editing Canon C300 multi audio channels MXF footage in Final Cut Pro 7 and FCP X? Follow our tips to make video editing with C300 MXF footage go as smoothly as possible.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Working with Canon C300 footage – which is XDCAM 422 50/Mbs footage in a .MXF wrapper – should ordinarily be quite straight forward. MXF files will work natively in Adobe Premiere and ingest quite happily through a free plugin in Final Cut Pro 7 and FCP X.  You can also bring this footage in through AMA into Avid Media Composer 6. AbelCine has an excellent step by step guide to importing C300 footage to Premiere CS6, FCP X, FCP 7 and Avid Media Composer 6. You can check it out here.

Everything will work seamlessly, that is, if your cards have been copied correctly to the hard drive with their entire folder structure intact. Without that folder structure you are effectively locked out of accessing your footage and an editing application like FCP7 will give you an error message like this one:



How to Copy MXF Files Correctly

So how do you copy cards correctly?

Well first, and this may go without saying, but if you're going to get an intern or producer to do it make sure they know what they're doing. Essentially you must copy the entire card structure (preferably not through dragging and dropping in the finder).

Sony and Canon both have free browser apps that will let you back up your media. Or you could invest in something like Shotput Pro to duplicate your cards to multiple drives simultaneously. You are backing them up as you go, right?

If that's not enough detail, just watch this great tutorial on a correct tapeless media workflow from Shane Ross. Although the tutorial winds up in Final Cut Pro 7, the initial principles are the same for any system. If you want even more tips, check out this great video from Chase Jarvis on his complete tapeless workflow.

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/AhDnyWFAM10" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

What To Do If Your C300 Card Structure Is Broken

If for whatever reason your card structure doesn't come across intact, what can you do?

Depending on your NLE you have various options. If you're in Adobe Premiere it doesn't matter, as it will read the MXF files just fine.

First, you can try to 'fake it' out by recreating the C300 card structure (which should look like the example below). In the past I'm sure I've gotten lucky with it but its a pretty slim chance of actually working.

FCPX needs a correct card structure so if you have to, transcoding in a 3rd party app is a feasible workaround.



Free App For Converting C300 MXF Files

Miro is a great free app (one of the few free apps I found) that actually works and works well. Miro Video Converter will allow you to grab the .MXF files and transcode them into ProRes 422, DNxHD and AVC Intra 1080p and 720p. You can batch transcode as many of them as you like and it works pretty quickly. The files look great and were a higher quality than files I created using the demo of MXF Converter for Mac from Pavtube. But as Miro is a free app, there are a few catches.
(Tips: If you want to preserve multi audio channels when convert Canon C300 MXF, or mix multi tracks into one track, Pavtube iMixMXF is highly recommended to you. Refer to the guide: How to convert MXF to ProRes 422 preserving multi-track for FCP?)





canon c300 mxf to fcp converter


First, you cannot specify the output folder and it defaults to your MacHD > User > Movies folder. So you need to have enough space on your boot drive to transcode the footage too. This is also a problem if you have multiple files with the same name, (which I had on this edit with a two camera shoot) as this means you have to transcode one set at a time and move them out of the folder so as not to overwrite them with the next batch. Annoying.

Also the original camera footage I was working with had two audio tracks in it where as Miro would only export a single mono track. This was not helpful either as I needed to be able to mix each track individually.

Paid Apps for Working With C300 MXF Files



As I was editing on an FCP7 system I had to find a way to get my C300 MXF files to play nice with Final Cut Pro 7, while getting around the broken file structure. A cry for help on Twitter led to this great recommendation from Andy Mees who saved the day by suggesting I check out both MXF Import from Calibrated {Q} or MXF4Mac from Hamburg Pro Media. Both plugins essentially do the same thing which is to allow Quicktime (and any apps that make use of the Quicktime architecture) to work with MXF files, just like any other file.

Calibrated{Q} MXF Import for OSX is a QuickTime Import component for NATIVE Importing and Editing of MXF Files within Final Cut Pro 6, 7, and X without using Log and Transfer.

And you’re not just limited to Final Cut Pro, you can also natively import and work with MXF files in CatDV, Compressor, Motion, Sound Track Pro, QuickTime Player and Shake.


You can download a free demo of MXF Import from Calibrated {Q} to test that it will work on your system. The demos only restriction is that it only allows you to view the first 30 seconds of the clip, other than that it’s the same as the full app. After installing the plugin I could drop the C300 MXF files directly onto the timeline in FCP7 and get editing – and with the dual audio tracks in the original files! Huzzah.

Hopefully these tips will save you some time, effort and frustration with broken MXF file structures.  And next time you’ll just copy the cards structure correctly…and get to editing!
