Watching DVD movies on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch could be such an enjoyment; the workflow is quite common as we now have so many rippers on the marketplace. But since we are talking about DVDs, it's much important to keep the original chapter marker when playback; y'all agree?

With such a tough task, I had spent a lot of time searching online, tried several SWs - some ok but always something that does not quite to do what I need. Luckily, I finally got this Pavtube ByteCopy (Review).
