Discussion: Play movies from my Itunes on the Galaxy Note?
… I’m trying to get the movies and videos that i have purchased on my itunes… Some of them are telling me that my device does not support the videos. how do get my Samsung Galaxy Note to play those iTunes movies and videos?
The answer is POSSIBLE so long as you can strip DRM from iTunes movies. So the most important piece of the equation is that you have a DRM Removal Software installed to your Mac. As we all know, the TV episodes, movies, and music videos in the iTunes Store are encoded with M4V format. The copyright of M4V files may be protected by using Apple’s FairPlay DRM copyright protection. DRM can not stop users putting iTunes movie to an Android device, but it stops an Android tablet and smartphones playing iTunes movies- that's why you get gray screen when trying to play an iTunes movie on Android tab like the mentioned Samsung Galaxy Note. So to watch a protected iTunes M4V file on Samsung Galaxy Note, you need to remove DRM from iTunes movies and swith M4V to MP4 format supported by Galaxy Note. Along with some help from the third-party software.
