You might have purchased and download lots of HD 720p and 1080p movies from iTunes store, some of these movies - although you might have already owned a physical DVD or Blu-ray disc sets- do not fit the screen when playing on the iPhone 4/4S or even the newest iPhone 5. How to get rid of the black bars on top and bottom of the movie screen?

The fact is, with a Blu-ray ripper you can easily rip these HD 1080p Blu-rays to iPhone formatted .mp4 video with customized size and quality, including aspect ratio and cropping. 480p DVDs with the original aspect ration 3:2, 1.78:1 and 2.35:1 can also be ripped to 720p video that plays on iPhone 5. Few Blu-ray/DVD rippers keep the 16:9 aspect ratio as Pavtube Blu-ray ripper does. The following guide tells how to convert movies from Blu-ray ISO, Blu-ray disc and DVDs to iPhone 5 formatted 16:9 widescreen video to fit the screen best(with black bars removed).
How to convert Blu-ray/DVD to video plays full screen on iPhone 5:
Step 1. Run the Blu-ray/DVD to iPhone 5 ripper, and load Blu-ray/DVD/Blu-ray ISO/DVD ISO file to the software.

Step 2. Select the main movie and then set desired audio& subtitles language.

Step 3. Select iPhone 5 video format from the drop-down profile list of “Format” bar.
In case that you can’t find iPhone 5 format: Download profile patch that consist iPhone 5 optimized presets. Double-click to install the presets.

Step 4. Press the big Convert button to start ripping Blu-ray/DVD to iPhone 5 playable videos. After conversion you can add the ripped movie to iTunes and sync movies to iPhone 5.

How to manually stretch DVD/Blu-ray movie to fit the 16:9 screen:
Custom video to fit iPhone 5 full screen play mode: click on “Settings” and set video size to 1135 X 640. If you rip 16:9 Blu-ray movie, just leave the bitrate to 1920x1080.
