Your Home Movies and Photos Won't Last Forever

The easy way to preserve your memories for generations to come.

If you have not transferred your aging home videos to digital formats, chances are:

• You believe that your home video tapes last forever. You believe that if you take good care of them, put them in a cool, dry place, don???t let the kids bang them around, the tapes will last forever.
• Or you believe these tapes are of times gone by: your VCR player is gone, there's no way to play those tapes anymore so you should just toss the tapes out.

The bad news is that your video tapes do not last forever, but the good news is that it???s not too late to digitize your tapes into today???s digital formats.

1. Head to??Handbrake’s homepage??and download the program. Install it to your computer as directed.
2. By default, Handbrake can rip unprotected DVDs, but most DVDs you buy from the store have copy protection. To get around this, you’ll need to install libdvdcss. On Windows, you can download this file separately (here for 32-bit systems??and??here for 64-bit systems),rename it to libdvdcss.dll??leave the filename as libdvdcss-2.dll, and put it in your Handbrake program folder (C:\Program Files\Handbrake). If you’re on a Mac,??download this file??and double-click to install it.??If you’re running OS X El Capitan, you have a few more steps???head to the bottom of this article before doing anything else.
3. Insert the DVD you want to rip, and open Handbrake.
4. Click the Source button in the upper left-hand corner and choose your DVD drive from the list. It will start scanning your DVD, which could take a few minutes.
5. When it’s done, head to the “Title” drop-down menu in the upper left hand corner of the window. This is where you’ll select which part of the DVD you want to rip. In the case of movies, it’s usually the longest title, so just pick that one. If you’re ripping episodes of a TV show, it’s usually the 22 or 44 minute ones, and you’ll have to rip them each separately.
6. Click the Browse button on the right side of the window. Navigate to where you want to save your movie file, and type in a file name in the box. Click OK.
