need help putting dvd movies on my samsung galaxy tab 3 (7.0) so i can watch them later

[tigger00mel]

HI everyone! i am new to this forum. I have a samsung galaxy tab 3 7.0 SM-T210R. I have the samsung galaxy s4 as well. I am trying to convert my movies that i have on dvd, to a format that i can watch it on my galaxy tab 3. I was able to do it with my samsung galaxy 4 by watching the movies i converted years ago for my motorola photon. I have downloaded so many programs and tried and convert the video and than everytime i try to watch it on my samsung galaxy tab 3, i get the error: Cannot play video. Sorry, this video cannot be played. ok.
Like i said, i have been able to do it for my samsung galaxy s4 but i just cant figure out this tab. I have a 64gb micro sd card and i would like to store some of my favorite movies to view later when i want. i have even tried the best players and i just cant figure out the right settings ans what program to use! Please help!! Thank you very much in advance!! ~melinda~

You could use Handbrake but it's a long process. It's free.

There may be other free ones but I'm not sure. Haven't looked for them in ages.


I use DVD Catalyst. Well worth $9.95. Tools4Movies

hi tube517,
I am trying the trial version of dvd catalyst to see if i can get it to work before i buy it, just to find out it wont work. I am unfamiliar with the settings and i just cant master this tab 3! can you please help me with the settings so i can buy that and use it? I want to put my favorite dvds on my tab 3 to watch when i am out and about.
Thank you in advance for all your help! I truly appreciate it!!
And no i havent tried handbrake yet. I just downloaded it. I think its got something to do with the codec of the videos i'm trying to put on my tab. I wonder if it would work better if i run them thru dvd43 and save them to the computer and than convert them in a batch with the dvd catalyst? I could do that but i still have to figure out the right settings to get the video to play on my tab 3 and thats my problem!

You will definitely need something like dvd43 along with whatever conversion software you decide to use in order to successfully rip commercial dvds. You should really look into Forums like afterdawn or doom9 for help with this because the specialty of the forums is audio/video ripping, copying and converting.

Would like to apologize for recommending avsforum previously. It's been awhile since I dabbled in this type of activity so forgot that the best places to go for help on DVD copying things is afterdawn or doom9.

Hi! Thank you. I realized one of my problems was the fact that i wasn't breaking the encryption. I use one click dvd pro to make backup copies of movies for my daughter and that has a dvd43 plugin built in. I ran my dvd's thru that and than i would run the folder that has the VOB and IFO files in it, thru the tools4movies video catalyst, the paid version. I can't watch those videos on my samsung galaxy tab3 7.0 (model: SM-T210R). I have tried just about every video player you can download in the app store, and i just cant get this to work. I have tried every preset on tools4movies catalyst for the samsung galaxy tab3 7.0 and all i ever get is the following error:
Cannot play video
Sorry, this video cannot be played.
OK

But, i can play the converted videos from the tools4movies catalyst program, on my samsung galaxy s4 smartphone! So i don't know what i am doing wrong! But i will check out the other 2 forums you listed above, and see if i can get some where with it. Thank you very much for your help! I truly appreciate it! ~melinda~

I've been using DVD decrypter/handbrake combo for quite a long time now, slow but it works.
My brother uses dvd fab, and has had a 100% success rate with it.

there is an app which allows you to put just VIDEO_TS folder on your tablet and then you can watch your DVD. Nothing else is needed. it is called Daroon player. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.daroonplayer.dsplayer&hl=en

DVD Catalyst developer is great for one on one support. That is why I recommend him and his product.
