software, "Apple TV 2" would mean 720p and "Apple TV 3" would mean 1080p.

Handbrake is (very popular) open source video conversion software. What
I doesn't do is actually rip DVDs (hence the other software) but it does
seem to keep more of the quality in the conversion than any other
product I've tried.
The documentation is here - https://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki
I'm not really sure *exactly* what it does (I'm increasingly more
interested in the content rather than the technology - that's what a
career in IT will do to you eventually!). The crucial thing is that I
missed from my original post was that I've not noticed* any problems
with the result.
* Disclaimer - not that I can see (or hear, taste...) like I used to.
