How to Rip and Upload Your Own DVDs (Part 2)

Welcome to the second part of my exclusive and easy-to-follow DVD ripping tutorial. This tutorial is mainly going to cover three points related to uploading your movie:

A. Capturing Screenshots Of Your Movie

B. Making Your Own .NFO File

C. Uploading Your Movie to a Torrent Site or to RapidShare

I'm going to start with screen capturing. This is usually done to show downloaders the quality of your movie. This isn't necessary, but I recommend it to people who want more downloads. By now, you should have Image Grabber II installed on your computer. If you don't, just download it using the link provided.

1. Open Image Grabber II.

2. Go to File>Open File.



3. Browse for your ripped movie, and then click "Open".



4. Pause the video, and click on the small monitor icon to the right of the red stop button.



5. A small box should pop-up. Type the number "12" in the box and click "OK".



6. Once it's completed capturing random frames from your movie, go to File>Save File and follow the settings in the pictures below.



After adding the settings in the previous picture, click on "Arial" to setup the font properties.



7. Once this is all done, just click on the "Save" button.



Now upload it to an image host like XXLIMG and you're screen cap file is ready!

The next step is creating your .NFO file which contains info about the movie (length, size, resolution etc..). This is also an optional step, but it makes you feel like a pro DVD ripper!

1. Download AVI2Clipboard and install it.

2. Right-click on your movie and go to AVI2Clipboard>Save to Clipboard (Normal).



3. This should copy your movie info to the clipboard. To see the info, go to a notepad file and press Ctrl + V. Here's an example of my NFO:



4. Finally, save your file as (yourtexthere.nfo).

The last step is uploading your file to a torrent tracker or to RapidShare. If you want to upload it to a torrent tracker, you can check out this tutorial. If you want to upload your movie to RapidShare, you can follow this quick tutorial. Make sure you have WinRAR installed before proceeding.

1. Go to your movie, right-click on it and select "Add to Archive".



2. Once it's open, apply the settings in the picture below and click "OK".



You're movie should split into 100MB archives ready for upload to RapidShare.
