To get the work done, you need to get some help from third-party softwares. There are many programs out there that allow you to make copies of your DVDs and let you watch them the way you want to view them. The best program I can recommend for ripping DVDs to Nexus 7 is Brorsoft Blu-ray Ripper (available for Windows or for Mac users). It is easy to use for editing and conversion and makes great quality copies of my BDs and DVDs.
The program takes everything from the DVD or Blu-ray, including the chapters, extras, and subtitles. With it, you can bypass the digital protection and convert Blu-ray/DVD to any format you want (without losing the quality of your Blu-ray, DVD). The audio/video synchronization is very good, the size of the subtitles too. And the conversion speed is faster than most similar apps on market. Download it now and start the DVD/Blu-ray to Nexus 5 conversion task.
How to Rip Blu-ray, DVD for playing on Nexus 5
Step 1 -> Insert your Blu-ray/DVD disc into youre a BD/DVD drive, and then Launch the Blu-ray Ripper for Nexus 5; click the "Disc" button on the interface to navigate to the Blu-ray DVD movies you want to convert.
Step 2 -> Click "Format" bar, you can easily find the optimized videos for Nexus 5 under Android >Google Nexus 4 H.264 Video(*.mp4). The output videos could fit on your Nexus 5 perfectly.
Step 3 -> You can also click "Settings" to change the video encoder, frame rate, resolution, etc. Remember the file size and video quality is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss. According to my experience, for watching movies on the Nexus 5, 720p with 1500kbps~2000kbps (depending on the movie length) is just all right.
Step 4 -> When everything is OK, just press the "Convert" button to start ripping Blu-ray/DVD to Nexus 5 MP4 videos. It will not take much time. Just wait for the conversion process to get done.
After the conversion, connect your phone to PC and transfer Blu-ray, DVD videos to Nexus 5 for smooth playback on the go.
