Quick guide to rip DVD to YouTube

First of all, download, install and launch the DVD to YouTube ripper on your PC or Mac.

Step 1. Load the DVD you want to upload to YouTube.
Insert the DVD disc into DVD-ROM, and then click DVD Disc at the top left corner of the ripper to load the DVD. Typically, it will select the main title for you directly. Certainly, you can also choose any one as you like manually.

Step 2. Select output profile.
This tool is badly user-friendly, because it offers preloaded YouTube video profiles. Simply find one under the path: Web Video Profile -> YouTube Video. According to YouTube Help Center, a MP4 video format with H.264 video codec and AAC audio codec is the best choice for uploading on YouTube.

Step 3. Edit DVD video for uploading to YouTube. (Optional)
If you want to trim, crop, expand or modify subtitles, just click Edit button. If you want to set video audio parameters, simply click the gear icon.

Note:
▶ By default, users are allowed to upload videos no longer than 15 minutes. If you want to put longer DVD video on to YouTube, you should verify your account to increase your limit.
▶ With an up-to-date browser version, you can upload DVD files more than 20GB. And the maximum file size is 128GB and maximum duration is 11 hours. You can check the details from the post "best YouTube size for uploading".
▶ YouTube applies 16:9 aspect ratio players. If you are uploading a non-16:9 DVD video, it will be processed and displayed correctly as well, but with pillar boxes (black bars on the left and right) or letter boxes (black bars at the top and bottom) provided by the player. So you may want to change aspect ratio from 4:3 to 16:9.

Step 4. Set destination folder and begin ripping DVD to YouTube.
Tap Browse button to specify a folder to store ripped DVD video. When all settings are done, you can hit RUN button to get DVD to YouTube conversion started.
