If you give me your time and product for free I will tell you how to pirate someone elses...
Stephen Schneider, Climate Scientist: "Scientists need to get some broader based support, to capture the public’s imagination…that, of course, entails getting loads of media coverage. So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified dramatic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we may have…each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest.

He's not pirating DVDs - he's making a copy of movies he already owns so his kids can watch it on a tablet in the car.

I've always used mencoder[^] when working on a linux machine.
Although it is available for the windows platform, I just use Handbrake[^] since the option of typing 'sudo apt-get install mencoder' (obviously) wont work from the command prompt and Handbrake is easy to download and install.
I really should get around to comparing handbrake to the windows version of mencoder some day.

I use Magic DVD Ripper - not free but worth the $35. Rips to plenty of formats, inc MP4. You can just rip the audio too if you want.

Oooh, I'm anticipa-pating its arrival! ![Jig | [Dance]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif)
Lest you ask, my dance club client is looking at setting these up for the "couches" to communicate with the bill acceptor, credit card reader, and other hardware that hangs off each device. So I get to play with some nifty hardware and help him write the interface software -- web services, etc. We're looking at either Ruby or node.js (rather than native C++) for handling all the device I/O and calls to the club's server. Should be quite the learning curve!

Are these "couches" the dancers?

No  They're booths or actual couches.

Got one a month or so ago and the are awesome, a couple of tips;
1) Use a power supply with 2A, it's very picky. The Wal-wart they offer 5V 2A for $9..95 is a good deal.
2) It's a little picky about uSD I used a Transend 8GB and it didn't work had to go out and get a Sans.
Good luck and have fun, they are a lot of fun!

You're welcome!
I don't know whether you've started researching yet but the BBB uses Device Trees to describe hardware clickity[^], there are quite a few tutorials on the subject.

My wife has a Samsung Galaxy S3 with an old version of Android installed.
It is from a Spanish phone company that looks like doesn't want to update the OS for that phone...
I've seen there are methods like the one CyanogenMod is offering to install a new OS version there.
It looks like all are advantages... but... have you done that? should I have something clear before starting doing that? any advice or recommendation? A good tool to be able to make a full backup and restore the phone to the backup if something fails?
There's plenty of information in the Internet, but too much information is like no information at all...
Thank you in advance!
