The ideal Amazon Fire HD 8 has a 1280*800-pixel, 8-inch screen that's robust enough for watching movies on a long bus ride, and small enough that you can still hold it with one hand. Its size makes it easy to type with your thumbs, play games like Red Ball 4, or read like a book. One of the issues that I had to overcome was how to copy and backup DVD movies to Amazon Fire HD 8 for playback, as there's no DVD drive with it.

After searching online, I know I have to rip DVD with some best DVD to Fire converter. Here're my testing result. With the freeware Handbrake, I can rip DVD to mp4, mkv in H.264 codec, one of the question is Handbrake does not decrypt DVD, for copy protected and commercial DVD discs, you'd better turn to some third party and professional DVD ripper like Brorsoft DVD Ripper.
