Transfer and Watch Blu-ray movies on Kindle Fire HDX 7 tablet

Have you ever thought of copying some of your Blu-ray movies onto the 7-inch Kindle Fire to make full use of 1920x1200 7" HD display? Then how to play Blu-ray on Kindle Fire HDX 7 tablet? Here, Pavtube Blu-ray to Kindle Fire HDX Ripper will convert Blu-rays to Kindle Fire HDX 7 MP4 format for watching.

 

A few weeks ago, Amazon announced their new line up Kindle Fire tablets which are running on an Android fork known as FireOS 3.0 “Mojito” OS. These new Kindle Fire HDX’s have some pretty spectacular specs actually. The Kindle Fire HDX is packing a Snapdragon 800 processor with a 1920×1200 resolution 7-inch display. It’s also 9mm thin weighing in at about 303g. The Amazon Kindle Fire HDX is running their Android-based FireOS 3.0, which does have some changes, and the initial reviews all said that the devices were pretty fast and responsive. Right now, it’s a pretty good looking tablet that is probably suitable for most people. The Kindle Fire HDX will be hitting the UK on November 13th, and heading up North to Canada on November 26th. 

All of the above is good, but like many other tablets, Kindle Fire HDX 7 does not deliver native support for Blu-ray/DVD movies, so if you have the intension to watch Blu-ray movies on it, you need to convert the Blu-rays into a format compatible with your Kindle Fire HDX 7 in advance. 

Here, you are suggested to get a professional tool- 
Top Blu-ray Ripper, which can rip latest Blu-ray to Kindle Fire HDX supported format in few steps, and then you can freely and easily transfer the generated videos to your Fire HD 7.I’ve be using the program to convert all my Blu-ray discs to Kindle Fire HDX playable video files. I’ve found the quality to be excellent, and see no difference when compared to playing the discs themselves. Meanwhile the audio/video synchronization is very good, the size of the subtitles too. If you’re a Mac user, please turn to the equivalent Mac version – Blu-ray Ripper for Mac, which can transfer DVD movies to Kindle Fire HDX tablet on Mac OS X (Mavericks and Mountain Lion included).

Below is the detailed guide on the Blu-ray to Kindle Fire HDX 7 conversion process. 

Step 1. Load Blu-ray movies. 

Install and launch the best Blu-ray to Kindle Fire HDX converter


Note:
 An external Blu-ray drive is required for ripping Blu-ray disc. 

Load Blu-ray Disc or ISO image to the Kindle Fire HDX 7 movie Converter with one click. 

Step 2. Select preferred language from drop-down list of "Subtitles" and "Audio" box. 

Step 3. Click "Format" bar and select a MP4 format for Kindle Fire HDX 7 playback. "Android -> Amazon Kindle Fire HD H.264 (*.mp4)" format is recommended for faster conversion and best movie effect.




Step 5. Click "Convert" to start ripping 1080p Blu-ray to Kindle Fire HDX 7 compatible MP4 video. 

Click the "Open" button to find the converted files when conversion completes and then you can transfer movies to Kindle Fire HDX 7 easily, and bring your favorite Blu-ray movies when traveling. 

Custom Settings 

If you'd like to customize profile settings for better quality or higher resolution, proceed as follows before you start converting Blu-ray to Kindle Fire HD 7 video: 

Click on "Settings" button. The pop-up Profile Settings window shows you a/v settings you're using. 



To take advantage of your screen, set the video size exactly as the display resolution- i.e. 1920 x 1080 for Kindle Fire HD 7. 


For better quality, set higher bitrate. We find the best balance between 500 to 2500kbps is just all right on 7-inch screen. To shorten conversion time, set lower quality. Note that when you lower file size, you lower video quality.

Get my DVDs I already own onto my Kindle Fire

This step-by-step guide reveals how to transfer DVD to Kinlde Fire for playback. This guide will show you how to convert DVD to Kindle Fire best video format via DVD to Kindle Converter.



The Kindle Fire is a tablet computer version of Amazon.com's Kindle e-book reader. I often  use it to read ebooks, listen to music, surf the internet and play movies from it. Now I have the videos on my kindle for my toddler to watch while I'm getting ready in the morning. And I wanted to get DVDs I already own onto my Kindle, but the issue is that I can't directly copy DVD movies from disc to Kindle Fire.

After some trying and testing I came up with a solution which I'd like to describe here so that all Kindle owners can benefit from the procedure. I find an online forum which introduces this Best DVD ripper- Pavtube DVD to Kindle Converter. With it, I can rip DVD to a format which Kindle Fire supports, then transfer the ripped video file to Kindle Fire for playback.

Overall, I have used the trial version of Handbrake, DVDFab, Aimersoft, but when I came to Pavtube DVDAid, I find it is really a nice DVD Ripper software which gives the best result. Ease of use and good reviews, sale price. How easy and fast it is! Here's a guide about how to rip DVD to Kindle Fire format with Ideal DVD to MP4 Converter and then playback it.

Download and get it installed. (Mac DVD to Kindle Fire Ripper is made for Mac users.) 

(Good news: Pavtube Studio release Free DVD Ripper and Free DVD Ripper for Mac

How to rip DVD to Kindle Fire? 

1. Load DVD to the DVD to Kindle Fire Ripper. 

Insert DVD movies into your DVD drive, then click "Load file" button to navigate to DVD movies you want to convert. And it is able to find and pick the actual main movie up automatically.

After importing successfully, you can go to select subtitle and audio track on the main interface for output.

Click "Format" menu to find the optimized video format for Kindle Fire in the dropdown list, Choosing the built-in "Amazon Kindle Fire H.264(*.mp4)" under "Android" option is perfect for Kindle Fire. 

 

Tips:  

a. For Kindle Fire HD users, choose "Android">- "Amazon Kindle Fire HD H.264 (*.mp4)" for Fire HD playback.

Pavtube ByteCopy. 

c. (Optional step) You can press "Settings" button on the interface to adjust the video and audio parameters like codec, size, bitrate, etc. The output videos quality is based on bitrate than resolution. The higher bitrate will result in lower picture quality loss but a larger file size. But there is a balance between quality and size. I think 1500kbps~2000kbps is all right for 720p movies on Kindle Fire. 


3. Start DVD to Kindle Fire conversion.

Rip my Blu-rays to Plex Media Server for streaming

This article offers a brief instruction about how to get Blu-ray movie disc free on  Plex Media Server to play with iPhone 6 Plus, Samsung Galaxy S6, HTC One M9, etc.

Here I would like to introduce Plex Media Server – a solution for your local and online media, which seamlessly connects your Plex clients. Well you can watch movies with the client – Plex Media Center on Windows & Mac, and more importantly, on iPad, iPhone and Android devices with the paid app.


This time, I own a plex mediaserver at home and need content to watch, I have tons of Blu-ray movies and wanted a good program to rip them with. I tried AnyDvD which is supposed to be a faster ripper and it was. 

At last, I found Pavtube Blu-ray to Plex Converter which aims to solve this problem by giving us the ability to store our purchased physical Blu-ray and DVD discs or downloaded media to local computer, hard drive then stream over a home network for Plex Media Server and iPhone 6 Plus, Samsung Galaxy S6, HTC One M9 playback. It's professional in ripping and converting Blu-ray/DVD discs, Blu-ray/DVD ISO image, Blu-ray/DVD copies and more. It will help you backup your Blu-ray disk and save the time looking for them from the cardboard with ease.

I read tests and tons of reviews give this program as No. 1 Blu-Ripper 2013. Well I mostly use it to transcode blu-ray to mkv because it supports good sound options and most devices support the format. As for the device I use is plex media server (PMS) and basicly any device (like my wiiu, htc onex, samsung gs2, 2 computers, xbox 360) that supports DLNA can play converted mkv video from the pms.
Below is a simple guide about how to convert/ backup your Blu-rays to Plex Media Server

First of all, you need to download and install the Best Blu-ray Ripper for Plex Media Server. There is a Mac version for you if you use Mac OS X computer. Then, just follow the steps to operate it.

Step 1: Insert your Blu-ray disc into your BD drive, run Pavtube BDMagic and click "BD/DVD disc" icon to load movie from Blu-ray source(Disc, folder, ISO).



Step 2: Click the "Format" option, and choose Common Video > MKV(Matroska) Video (*.mkv) as output format. You can also select H.264 Video (*.mp4) for Plex Media Server.



Tip:


If you like, you can click "Settings" to change the video encoder, resolution, frame rate, etc. as you wish. Keep in mind the file size and video quality is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss, and vice versa.

Step 3: Click the convert button under the preview window, and the Blu-ray ripper will start the conversion from Blu-ray movies to MKV for Plex Media Server. After conversion, you can stream Blu-ray movies through Plex Media Server to HDTV, iPhone 6 Plus, Samsung Galaxy S6, HTC One M9or other DLNA-compliant devices.



Now watching blu-ray movies on portable devices becomes easy and I can really lie back, relax and enjoy my favorite blu-ray movies.
