| raybbaby Member  Sarah knows why Barack won! 482 Posts 12/09 |  Posted - Oct 20 2010 : 6:47PMI'm trying to rip and then burn a copy of some amateur footage I shot. I thought that Windows had software included with the XP bundle that would doi this. I can't figure it out. I can play the dvd on the computer monitor, but I can't seem to copy it into the memory, which would allow me to burn a new disc. I also can't seem to import it into movie maker, where I thought I could fool around with editing a bit. Any help? [Link] |

| Rod Member 908 Posts 8/10 | Posted - Oct 21 2010 : 11:17PM [Image not found DB] You need all of these files to make a DVD. You'll need a rip program to convert these files on a DVD to a WMV or AVI or MP4 or flv or other move file. On a Mac, you can use an open source application like Handbrake to rip the DVD to MP4. It's been too long since I did it on my PC, but I'll try to take a look tomorrow and give you more complete instructions. You can just Google "how to convert DVD to _____" (insert whatever file format you want that MovieMaker or whatever editing program you want to use will accept. [Link] |
| Bill All-Star Member 5334 Posts 6/00 | Posted - Oct 22 2010 : 12:12AM As Rod mentioned, you can use Handbrake to convert a non-encypted DVD to .mp4 or .mkv files, which you can play on a computer or with a media player. There are versions for both the Mac & PC. [Link] |

| Robert Member My past is a foreign country. Most things are different there, including word usage. 503 Posts 12/06 | Posted - Oct 22 2010 : 9:38PM All you have to do is tell VOB2MPG where to find the DVD files and where you want to put the mpg file. It can be in the same folder. The IFO and BUP files are control and menu files. They contain no video images or sound. The xxx.VOB files are the video/sound files and are essentially mpg files with some header/trailer code etc., so the DVD player can play them correctly. They include a sound track. All VOB2MPG does is strip off the 'extra' stuff and leave behind a clean mpg file that can be used by most video file editors and DVD creators. I use many video file and DVD editors to perform various functions. VOB2MPG is the simplest and fastest VOB file converter I've found. BTW, I've found that Movie Maker is one of the worst video file editors and DVD creators. I've essentially stopped using it. On the other hand Intervideo WinDVD2 (which is fairly old - 2002) doesn't require VOB files to be converted, they can be processed directly. [Link] |

| Robert Member My past is a foreign country. Most things are different there, including word usage. 503 Posts 12/06 | Posted - Oct 23 2010 : 4:48PM Such is the case with VOB2MPG. I downloaded the current version from the web site (URL given above) and the version I was using for quite a while VOB2MPG 2.7 has been 'upgraded' to version 3.0. I'm not impressed and it appears to be more difficult to understand and use. I still have version 2.7 in zip download form and anyone that wants that version can send me an e-mail and I reply with the download attached. (Note gmail addys will not allow the receipt of e-mails with zip files containing executables). [Link] |
