Stream Blu-ray/DVD collections to Portable Devices and HDTV via Home Network

This guide introduces how to backup Blu-ray/DVD disc, folder, IFO/ISO to your locate network, so that you can stream them to portable devices and TV for playback at any time.

If you are any thoughts of home entertainment, you should not miss the idea of streaming your Blu-ray and DVD collections to portable devices and HDTV via home network. It's a good way to share movies with family members without the risk of scratching discs; everyone in your family can create and access the shared movies; isn't it fantastic?

If you already have the home network set up, then the most important thing is to backup Blu-ray/DVD to server in a most common format which could be accepted by most of your devices. After many trials, I prefer to save them into MP4 format as it's widely supported by my iPhone, iPad, Android tablet and Samsung Smart TV.

To backup Blu-ray/DVD into MP4 format with best quality, I recommend Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate as it's capable of ripping/converting just about every title that I own; it's easy of use and choices for decode/encode to all popular formats.
