Hi all,
I have a client that has several movies on DVD (and in theaters). They want me to cut a highlight reel for in house purposes. They have given me their DVD's to pull footage from. As I am not in the practice of ripping stuff illegally, I don't know how to get clips off of copy protected DVD's. I do own DVDxDVPro but it doesn't want to read the media. Is there a way to grab stufff from the DVD or do I need to have them track down master footage?? Thanks for the help.

no. thats not what it does. all it does is remove copy protection and move the files to your drive. you need dvdxdv, or mpegstreamclip to get the resulting files into fcp friendly format. i think handbrake may do a decent job as well...
man, just do a quick search of the forum. we have covered this topic, step by step, ad nauseum...
Ease up fellas-
My apologies! I DID search but didn't find... I'm not failiar with MPEGStreamclip so nothing about it registered. Just sitting here trying to figure it out. I get it that answering the same questions might be a drag, however, sometimes technology can make your head spin a bit...

sorry troy, its just that this question is asked no less than every other day...
go here: [www.lafcpug.org] or here: [www.lafcpug.org] or here: [www.lafcpug.org] or here: [www.lafcpug.org] or here: [www.lafcpug.org] or just do a subject line search for DVD and sit back and have a lunch...
I totally get it... and therefore try to search first, etc.
I resect the time spent by those on the forum. Sometimes however, the most obvious answer/solution etc. is right under your nose... which is the last place we think to look. Thanks to all for the help and I finally put 2 x 2 together, well actually mactheripper and DVDxDV. Rip with mtr, transpose with dvdxdv.... See, right under my nose...
