Download DVDFab 8.1.6.8

Saturday version 8.1.6.8 of DVDFab was released. DVDFab consists of several parts that can be used to rip, copy and convert movies from DVD or Blu-ray into a format that can be played on a portable device such as the PSP or iPod, for example. The program can make a complete copy, but it is also possible to choose individual parts, for example only the main movie with a limited number of languages ​​and subtitles.

The different parts of the program each have a own license. Those who do not need the Blu-ray functionality or who do not own a portable player do not have to pay for this functionality.
