How to Play iTunes M4V Movies by RealPlayer on any Devices

Which player do you use often? Personally I’d like the RealPlayer as it handle a lot of different video formats such as MP3, MPEG, MP4, FLV, AVI, WMA, M4A etc. and it works across different platforms such as Windows, Mac and Linux. It has been released since 1995 and it has been upgraded with higher performance. Many users use it for playing videos from many places, but it may not support iTunes videos. Here I will find another alternative way to help you play Tunes videos.
itunes-to-realplayer.jpg

Part 1. Watch iTunes Movies on RealPlayer

As we know, iTunes is also in M4V format. You maybe puzzled why iTunes M4V videos are not playable considering that M4V format is on the RealPlayer support list. But one thing you need to know about is that iTunes purchased and rental M4V movies or TV shows are encrypted with DRM (Digital Rights Management) copyright protection. Under this condition, the iTunes movie episodes are only accessible within Apple’s ecosystem. Nowadays the official way to enjoy iTunes videos so far is by iTunes or QuickTime. This makes it really hard for some users to enjoy iTunes videos. If you’d rather not use iTunes player or Quicktime, there is another better solution by breaking the DRM protection. How? Luckily it is not a difficult job. You can simply get a DRM Media Converter such as the DRmare iTunes M4V to RealPlayer Converter to convert the iTunes videos. Then the DRM will be removed automatically. After that, It will save you a lot of hassles such as you don’t need to authorize the devices any more and there is not a limitation on the quantity of devices. You can enjoy them on RealPlayer in a most elegant way as you want.

Part 2. Convert iTunes Movies and TV Shows to RealPlayer Step by Step

Here I will take the DRmare software Mac version to list the general steps for your reference. The steps are same for both Windows and Mac actually.
Step 1Load iTunes DRM videos2
To add the iTunes purchases and rentals to the software, you have to download them to iTunes completely first. Then you can drag and drop them from iTunes to DRmare software main screen. You can also click the ‘+’ icon to open the DRmare library manage window, it will list all the available iTunes DRM videos and you can select the ones you want.
Step 2Define output format for RealPlayer3
By default, the output format is set as ‘MP4(LossLess)’ on the DRmare M4V Converter, you may keep the default format. Or you can select one of the formats supported by RealPlayer such as 3GP, 3GP2, FLV, WMV, M4V, AVI and so on. You can even customize the output parameters like bit rate, frame rate, codec, output folder, subtitle, audio track.
Step 3Remove DRM from iTunes M4V4
At last, you can click the ‘Conversion’ button, DRmare iTunes to RealPlayer Converter will help to process the DRM files to common video files in a 30X faster speed. What worth to mention here is that the speed may varies on different devices as it is still related to the computer CPU, memory, motherboard, hard drive and operating system. So please just wait a while patiently for it to complete successfully.

Part 3. Tips to Get Full Use of RealPlayer

Finally you have all the converted videos which are free of DRM protection. You can open the RealPlayer and then drag the iTunes videos to the RealPlayer to play. Technically you can play the videos across different platforms such as PC, mobile, Mac and Linux etc. What you need is to install the related version RealPlayer on all your devices.

What Will the Future iOS and MacOS Be Like


It’s easy to get so focused on the details on the present that we miss the obvious questions about the future. When John Siracusa wrote about the dangers of Mac OS X getting old in 2005, that operating system had only been around for five years—but he wasn’t wrong that Apple would need to address major shortcomings in the operating system in the long term.

So with iOS riding high (and serving as the basis for pretty much every major Apple platform that isn’t the Mac), it’s hard to imagine what comes next. And yet some tweets by Steve Troughton-Smith made my eyes pop open. After linking to a fascinating Ars Technica story about Fuschia, Google’s next-generation operating system project, Troughton-Smith wrote: “We’re far enough into the age of mobile that the big players are designing the OSes that’ll follow it-surprised if Apple isn’t doing same. It’s not so crazy to think that Apple would want to replace both iOS and macOS with something new and more unified. Post-XNU [the Kernel that runs iOS and macOS], post-BSD [Unix, the underpinnings of iOS and macOS].”

Replace macOS? Okay, we’ve played this game before—just as the Mac has changed chip architectures every decade or so, we’re now 17 years into the macOS/OS X era—and the classic Mac OS lasted about the same amount of time. iOS is comparatively young, but it’s still 10 years old, and built on top of the Mac OS X base. Perhaps its time is coming, sooner than we think. Or perhaps not. Let’s look at Apple’s long-term OS choices:

Plow ahead on both fronts. In this scenario, Apple continues to maintain two separate (but related) base operating systems, macOS and iOS. iOS continues to receive a lot of attention, but macOS also gets major new features, especially ones that are synergistic with additions to iOS. It’s a lot of extra work to have two totally separate operating systems (leaving aside the iOS derivatives that run the Apple Watch, Apple TV, and HomePod), but the Mac’s not a business Apple wants to abandon and iOS isn’t going to replace it, so we’re left with a steady state.

Lean into iOS so it can replace macOS. Some people would argue that this is the current state of affairs. I’m not sure about that—macOS still gets some love and annual updates—but it’s true that the difference between these first two scenarios is mostly about what Apple’s ultimate goals with iOS are. Is Apple building iOS, especially on the iPad, as an operating system that’s powerful enough to outright replace macOS? As someone who uses iOS to get real work done, I think Apple’s still got a long way to go with iOS before it could feel comfortable making iOS desktops and laptops and shutting down production of Macs. But the company could get there—if it made a concerted effort.

Apple OS 2020. The other way for Apple to go would be to continue updating iOS and macOS annually, but pull resources off of those projects and instead begin building the foundations for an entirely new operating system, one that can run devices as small as an Apple Watch (or AirPods?) or as large as a 27-inch iMac or a Mac Pro. An operating system that takes the best of iOS, but ditches some of its features—Troughton-Smith suggests replacing the XNU kernel and BSD unix underpinnings—with something new. This new, single operating system would be the basis of all future Apple products, and the distinction between the Mac and iOS would drop away.

The OS of Theseus

My guess is that Apple has no stomach for a complicated operating-system migration, especially with iOS and the App Store doing so well. And iOS has proven remarkably adaptable. Over the last few years, Apple has shown a preference to replace the parts of its operating systems, bit by bit, rather than chucking everything out wholesale. iOS devices run a different filesystem than they ran last year; Apple’s programming language of the future, Swift, coexists with the Objective-C language that Apple inherited from NeXT in 1997.

Apple seems to prefer invisible, subtle, and slow technology transitions whenever it’s possible. It seems to me that Apple would rather keep making changes behind the scenes in iOS whenever possible, keeping it relevant and modern, rather than making a clean break that confuses the market, makes life hard on developers, and potentially slows the momentum of the iPhone and App Store.


If replacing iOS piece by piece is the future, where does that leave macOS? I’m a believer that iOS will come to all sorts of different devices in the future. The Mac will remain alive and kicking, probably for as long as anyone wants to use it, and for that I’m grateful.

The continued existence of the Mac gives Apple a powerful out when it comes to iOS development. If there’s something iOS can’t do, some market or user type that it can’t serve, Apple can point at the Mac and declare it the solution.

This, then, seems to be the current state of affairs: Apple’s investing in iOS, swapping out bits and pieces as it goes, allowing it to grow into something more powerful—but not embarking on a crash course to build it into a Mac replacement. macOS keeps hanging around, gaining new features but not with any urgency. It’s not the most exciting scenario—and it certainly could turn out to be the wrong one—but sometimes slow and steady really does win the race.

How to Watch iTunes Videos on Xperia Devices

Xperia is a well-known brand of phones and tablets from Sony. Some people like Sony devices for its distinct design and reliable performance. The most popular models are the phones and tablets Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4 etc. Now the latest model of Flagship is XZ. If you are also like the design of Xperia, it is highly recommended you to buy one for entertainment such as watching videos. However, since iTunes videos are only available on Apple’s ecosystem, you won’t be able to play iTunes videos on Xperia directly. Here in this page I will introduce another way to help you remove DRM and convert iTunes videos to Xperia compatible videos.


Part 1. What Cause You Can’t Play iTunes M4V on Sony Xperia Devices

There are a lot of reasons why you can’t play iTunes videos on Xperia. First of all, iTunes videos is in a proprietary M4V format, which are not supported by almost all the Sony Xperia mobile phones and tablets. You may think that you can solve this format compatible is by installing a new player since there are many free players online which supports M4V format of videos. Usually it does will work for common M4V files. However, it is not the case for the iTunes M4V files because they are loaded with the notorious iTunes FairPlay DRM protection. Under this mechanism, you have to authorize the digital video contents on Apple devices before you can enjoy them. That makes it nearly impossible for non-apple devices to play iTunes videos as you can’t bypass the authorization directly.
But please don’t worry. Good news is that there are many DRM programs have been developed to solve this annoyance today such as DRmare iTunes to Sony Xperia Converter for Mac/Windows. It integrates almost all the features of other converters like converting videos, removing DRM, customizing video parameters, subtitles, audio tracks and so on. With this tool, it is a cinch to remove the FairPlay DRM and convert the iTunes M4V videos to Sony Xperia compatible videos.

Part 2.  Convert iTunes Videos to Sony Xperia in a Easy Way

You can download the trial version and do it by yourself directly if you are an experienced user. Else you can follow me to do that step by step. You will find out how simple the process is to convert iTunes movies and TV shows.
Step 1Add iTunes M4V videos
Before you add the iTunes videos files, you’d better make sure that they have been downloaded completely and played well on the computer. I’d suggest you try to play them on the iTunes first. If they are played well, then you can import them to the software main screen by dragging and dropping.
Step 2Customize output video format
Different Sony Xperia mobile devices may supports different formats of videos. Take the new luxury Xperia XZ series for example, it natively supports 3GPP, AVI, MP4 etc. For other Xperia phones and tablets, they should be compatible with MP4 too. You can select a right format according to the video support list of your Xperia device. Here I will choose MP4(Lossless) and click ‘OK’.
Step 3Convert iTunes M4V to Sony Xperia
After that, you can click the ‘Conversion’ button slightly to start the converting process. You will see the iTunes flashes one second and plays the videos on the background. Please don’t close iTunes else it will interrupt the converting process. Once the process is done, there won’t be any DRM protection on the output videos and you will find that the video extension has been changed to the one you customized before.

Part 3.  Transfer iTunes Movies to Sony Xperia by Media Go or USB Cable 

That is great, you are almost done. Now it is time to transfer the iTunes videos to Sony Xperia and start to enjoy them on the device. The official way to transfer files such as videos, music and files etc. to Sony Xperia is by using the Media Go tool. Simply download it from the Sony official website and then you can install it to your computer and follow the screen instruction to connect your Xperia device to transfer data. It will take a while to do this though.
Another way to do that is to transfer the data via USB directly. Simply connect the Xperia to your computer by a USB cable. Then you can open the Xperia device on your computer and then you can copy and paste the converted videos to the Xperia device. Do you have any questions? Please feel free to leave comments to us below.

Best Tutorial to Convert iTunes M4V to FLV to Share with Others Online

Have you ever encountered a problem that it takes a long time to upload a video and it fails unexpectedly? If so, it is mostly like that you are uploading a big file at a low internet connection speed. At this point, converting your videos to a low size video such as FLV is an alternative solution. FLV means flash video, is born for streaming online with smallest size. If you have some wonderful video like iTunes videos , you may want to share them online with your friends or family members. Here in this post, I will show you how to convert iTunes DRM M4V videos to FLV in a easiest way.


Part 1. Best Converting Tool to Convert iTunes M4V to FLV

If you are a long time user of iTunes, you may have already known that most digital media contents on iTunes are encoded with the FairPlay DRM scheme. This is created for limiting the videos from copying and distributing everywhere. Hence, the feasible solution to share iTunes videos is to break the FairPlay DRM protection at the first place. Several years ago, the smart and handy open source tool Requiem can help to solve the issue perfectly. However it was discontinued in 2012 and it doesn’t work any more. But don’t worry. Alternatively you can turn to other third party iTunes video software for help, such as DRmare M4V to FLV Converter for Mac, a most convenient iTunes DRM destructor. You can use it to remove DRM and convert iTunes M4V to FLV in a fast and elegant manner. Besides, please make sure you have the latest version of iTunes on your computer as DRmare software depends on it to run smoothly. Also, we’d recommend you to use the software on a Mac computer instead of a Windows if you want to get multiple output video formats.

Part 2. Convert DRM M4V Videos to FLV in a Fast Way

Once you have all the required tools ready, you can start to remove DRM from iTunes videos in a significantly easy way. Here I will take the Mac version to demonstrate how it works in converting iTunes M4V to FLV step by step.

Step 1: Add DRM M4V movies from iTunes


When you launch the DRmare software, iTunes will be opened automatically. You can find the iTunes videos which are downloaded completely and then drag and drop to load them to the DRmare M4V to FLV Converter main screen directly. But if you’d rather not drag and drop, you can also navigate to the bottom left of the software screen to find and click the ‘+’ icon. DRmare software will pop up a window to browse your videos from iTunes library.

Step 2: Select FLV video profile under ‘Web Video’ tab


Next, you can go ahead to click the format icon, you will see a pop up panel to select the output format. From there, you can navigate to the ‘Web Video’ tab and select ‘FLV’ as the output format. Besides that, DRmare M4V to FLV Converter also offers multiple options for you to customize the videos like bit rate, frame rate, codec and so on, you can simply click the small gear icon above the ‘FLV’ format icon to open the settings window.

Step 3: Convert iTunes M4V movies  to FLV


Please check twice to make sure everything is set as you required, then you can click the conversion button from the bottom right side. DRmare iTunes M4V Converter will remove FairPlay DRM and encode them to the new FLV videos. Once it is done, you will get the videos in FLV format in a smallest size. Typically 1 minute video only has about 1MB.

Part 3. More Details about FLV Format You Should Know

It is really great to sharing iTunes videos by converting them to FLV format. But it is not ideal actually. That is because FLV videos are usually encoded with H.263, so the video quality are at SD quality. Though it supports to encode with H.264, there still some streaming issues and some players won’t support it so well. Consequently, Adobe has released a new format F4V as an upgrade format of FLV which is based on H.264 codec and it is similar to MP4. If you don’t care about the file size so much but want to have higher quality, you may try to convert iTunes M4V videos to F4V too. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave your comments below.

Full Tutorial to Convert iTunes M4V Videos to MOV

Although MOV and M4V are video formats created by Apple, they are completely different in many aspects. For example, MOV supports kinds of different codecs while M4V mainly supports H.264 video codec. Because of this, the size of the same videos could be different when they saved in M4V and MOV. Besides these, the most important difference is that M4V is combined with the Apple’s FairPlay DRM protection. Under which, users are not allowed to use play videos outside Apple’s ecosystem. Generally, you can only play M4V videos on up to 5 Apple devices in total. If you want to remove this limitation, you can follow me here to convert iTunes DRM M4V to MOV. Please continue to read on.

In general, LG G6 doesn’t support much formats. The recommended ones are H.264, MP4, DviX, XviD, WMV. So you can either choose ‘MP4’ by default or choose a format you want accordingly.

Step 3Convert iTunes M4V to LG G6
When you are ready, you can click the conversion button on the lower right of the software screen, the software will start to remove DRM from iTunes videos to play on LG G6. The converting time may vary from several minutes to couples of minutes depending on how many files you convert at a time. You can just leave it to run automatically without the need of sitting in front of the computer.

Part 3. On the Whole

Finally, you will get the DRM free content, you can transfer then to your LG G6 via the USB cable and then you can use a compatible player on your LG G6 to play the iTunes videos. If there is not a compatible player, you may install the VLC player or KMPlayer. Both media players support to play multiple formats of files. That is so easy, right?
