Are you looking to create ISO file from DVD Windows 10 or Mac computers? Well, you’ve just come to the right page. First and foremost, creating ISO files from DVD isn’t as tricky as it sounds. All you need is to use the right tools and methods, and you’re set to go. However, we understand that most readers don’t know the right tools to rip DVDs. So if you want to create ISO from DVD Mac or Windows, you should read on!
As you may already know, ISO files are single files that contain the perfect representation of a DVD. In short, creating ISO is a smart way of having a DVD backup. So if you want a tool that can seamlessly burn DVD files to ISO Windows 10/8/7, then look no further than the renowned UniConverter. This tool is easy to use and can burn DVD to many other popular formats apart from ISO. And yes, the download and installation process is pretty simple.
Download and install iSkysoft DVD ripper on your computer after which you’ll launch it and click on the Burn tab. From there, hit the Load DVD drop-down menu and start importing your DVD files or folder. Your files should appear as thumbnails on the home window.
Bellow each video thumbnail, you’ll see three edit icons which you’ll click on one to add effect, crop, or trim files. Next, click the pencil-like icon on the right side of your home screen to select your preferred video template and background music/picture. Click OK and then label your ISO file as well as set other parameters like quality, aspect ratio, etc.
You’ll head to the Burn video to drop-down menu, click on it, and then select the ISO file. Finally, click the Burn button located at the bottom-right side of the screen to start converting DVD to ISO Windows 7, 8, or 10. It’s that simple!
However, not every user out there is blessed with a Windows computer. Here at iSkysoft, we understand that, and that’s why I’ll show you how to convert DVD to ISO Mac computers. Let’s get started!
Just follow the same installation process as with Windows computers then launch the program. Proceed to click the Load DVD drop-down menu from the Burn tab. From there, choose your DVD file/folder you intend to convert to ISO.
On your imported videos, click on one of the edit icons right below each thumbnail. You can then add effects, subtitles, audio, etc. Next, select your DVD template as well as background picture/music by clicking on the small pencil-like icon on the right side of the screen. Click Ok to finish the editing process.
It’s now time to start converting DVD files to ISO image. But before we do that, click on the Burn videos to drop-down button and then select ISO File from the many available options. To finish up, click the big, green Burn button at the bottom of the screen. You can now rest easy as your Mac computer starts converting DVD to ISO files with lossless quality.
Up to this point, I’m pretty confident that you now have a clear picture of how to convert ISO to DVD with Windows/Mac computers. However, there are a few issues you need to know about ISO files and DVD files.
As I’ve mentioned earlier, ISO is a representation or an image of a disc such as CD, DVD, or Blu-ray disc. Basically, it contains multiple files embedded to form a single file. Apart from being used to create DVD/CD image, ISO files can also be used to store a file system’s binary image. That said, ISO files come with a .iso extension, although sometimes they come with a .img extension.
If you’re familiar with audio/video CDs, then you know what DVD files look like. You’ve probably seen that VIDEO_TS folder after inserting your DVD on your computer DVD drive. That aside, DVDs come with a .vob file extension that contains all vital information like menu, subtitle, video, audio, and more. To play a .vob file, you’ll need a DVD player that’s compatible with this format.
After reading this detailed post, I’m quite sure that you now know which program to use when converting DVD to ISO Mac or Windows computers. With UniConverter, you’ll not only enjoy fast conversion speeds but a whole host of additional features. On top of that, this program runs smoothly on both Mac and Windows PCs. It just doesn’t get any better!
