Stream 1080p m4v blu-ray rips to Apple TV 3 with Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound pass-through

Posted on May 9, 2012 by playbdsoft

It looks like we were blind-sided a little by the iPad 3 events, because Apple had something more for us, like the latest iteration of Apple TV 2012, which looks and acts exactly like the previous model. That difference is its support for native 1080p video, as streamed from iTunes, over the Internet, or via AirPlay from a third-generation iPad. Yeah, you can stream 1080p HD movies and TV shows your buy on the iTunes store for enjoying on your 65-inch HDTV. With proper Blu-ray ripper software, you can even back up Blu-ray Discs and DVDs into Apple TV 3 optimized HD videos without much quality loss. If you’d like to stream Blu-ray and DVD collections to new Apple TV 3, Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper should be your best choice.

blu-ray to apple tv 3Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper comes up with new Apple TV 3 1080p preset in its latest update, letting you convert Blu-ray to Full HD 1080p M4V video that looks even sharper than iTunes store 1080p movies. Better off, the new preset exports HD video with 2 audio tracks- both Dolby Digital 5.1 and AAC stereo audio will be retained, so that Apple TV could pass-through Dolby Digital to A/V receiver for reproduction of surround sound, and export AAC stereo when going without surround sound system. This article aims to guide you through Blu-ray to Apple TV 3 conversion.

Preparations for 1080p/1080i Blu-ray Ripping:
1. Ensure that you’ve had an internal or external Blu-ray Disc drive installed properly.
2. Get Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper ($49). Trial download link:

Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper for Mac (Mac OS X 10.8, 10.7, 10.6, 10.5 compatible)

The top Blu-ray Ripper review [best Blu-ray to Apple converter review]

Posted on May 4, 2012 by playbdsoft


Founded in just 2007, Pavtube Studio has already made a name for itself as a well-known publisher of multimedia software. Thus, it’s no surprise Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper is ranked among our top picks for Blu-ray Ripper software. The Blu-ray ripping software offers a range of typical functionalities and customizable features.

Pros
Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper offers powerful Blu-ray decrypting and unmatched preview capabilities. Plus it offers multiple output options for various multimedia devices, including 1080p preset for the new iPad 3 and Dolby Digital 5.1 pass-through profile for Apple TV 2 and the new Apple TV 3rd Gen.

Cons
The software has painstakingly slow conversion speed. But things go differently if you are running a CUDA or ATI (AMD APP) enabled computer. The software now is updated to make full use of GPU to largely accelerate the conversion speed.

The verdict
It’s sufficient software that does its intended job.

Features
Considering the Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper is one of the pricier Blu-ray converters, we were surprised to find it lacked certain personalization features. For instance, you cannot add artistic effects to the converted video nor can you extract images or audio clips from the original Blu-ray disc (BD) or folder. And while we could adjust the video output parameters, there’s no option to change common video effects such as brightness and contrast.

Pavtube Blu-ray ripper software provides many of the standard functionalities most cursory users would want including a splitter function and robust Blu-ray decryption to bypass copy protections. One of the best features we found that is completely unique to the software is its editing preview. The editor window displays the original video and the output video side-by-side. This way you can see how the converted file – with your implanted effects – compares to the original video.

Another thing we really liked about Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper is it’s one of just a few Blu-ray to DVD converters we reviewed that offers a Mac version of the software. Plus, it offers multiple format compression to fit different uses. And we could adjust the video output parameters, and change common video effects such as brightness and contrast.

Pavtube Blu-ray converter software has a “Copy the entire disc” option to preserve the original file structure of the Blu-ray DVDs.

Quality of Converted Video
Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper also offers high caliber video output. Loss of quality is very minimal and we didn’t notice any skips in the audio or video. Moreover, any output parameters we changed, including the bit rate and resolution, were produced precisely in the playback, something we’d expect from well-rounded Blu-ray ripping software.

Ease of Use
Its layout is easy and intuitive to navigate.

Technical Support
Throughout our research and testing, we’ve come to discover that surprisingly most manufacturers of Blu-ray to DVD converter software do not provide ample technical support; Pavtube is no exception to that generality. Users can contact the company via email or call their international customer service line (which inconveniently is a number originating from China) for specific technical issues. The Pavtube site, however, does have a written tutorial on how to use the Blu-ray ripper and some general FAQs.

Summary
With unique preview capabilities, quality video output and a Mac version apt for Apple devotees, Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper proves to be a respectable application.
