For the OP:
Did you even try Google before asking the list? Google should always be
your first choice.

For Scott:
If you install the VLC app on the iPad you can probably skip the
transcoding and also having to add the video to iTunes first. You'll only
need to transcode the audio if it uses AC3, which is proprietary and the
owners have been issuing takedown notices for any app using it (so VLC
doesn't support it). Otherwise VLC can handle any video format (the days
of having to use a special profile just for an iPhone or iPad are long
gone). You can then copy the videos directly into VLC using iTunes file
sharing.

(But many thanks for reminding me. I may ask her to look at it again next time.) -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6

Answers that were right 10 years ago, are probably not today. I usually search last week, or month, or year, or last 2-3 years. mark
