Have you ever left your DVD case packed full of your favorite movies in the seat back of an airplane when you traveled?  I did this once and that was all it took for me to begin transferring movies to either my computer or my portable media device and watch them from there.  Well VLC is a program that can help with that process and yes, it is as simple as watching a movie.

VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/)  media player is a highly portable multimedia player and multimedia framework capable of reading most audio and video formats (MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264, DivX, MPEG-1, mp3, ogg, aac …) as well as DVDs, Audio CDs VCDs, and various streaming protocols.

Several programs exist in the market today to convert and transfer your DVD movie to your portable media player.  Some of these programs even have you install VLC to remove the copy protection of the DVD movie while they convert to a single file.  But there are only a handful of programs that allow you to select points in a DVD and record the sequence you want.  This is another great point about VLC.

MysticGeek  at http://www.howtogeek.com/ has written an excellent article found here (How to copy a DVD) that explains how to configure VLC and capture the complete DVD or specific scenes.
