movies on iTunes

iTunes has a movie playlist.

Is it possible to take one of my movie DVDs and save it under iTunes for me to watch at any time in the future?

Thanks,

Yes, you will need to convert the DVD to MP4. Try using 'Handbrake' for this.

You can then add the MP4 to iTunes for watching later on iTunes.

I have tried it twice with this movie and it crashed both times while making an mp4. I tried AVI with lowest quality and it worked, but of course, the AVI cannot be imported into iTunes. Any settings you recommend?
