Hi,
I am trying to convert a DVD-R so that I can import it into FCP. Whenever I try to open the file in Streamclip I receive the familiar "file too short" error. I've read numerous posts about this issue but have not been able to pinpoint a workaround.
The DVD contains an 8 minute Director's Reel. The image quality is already not the best so I am hoping I can use Streamclip to convert the file. Otherwise its Handbrake to MP4 to H264 with another 3rd party software.
Do I need an MPEG 2 player installed on my CPU for Streamclip to recognize the VOB on the DVD? I've been checking the forums and see a couple of mentions regarding MPEG 2 players. However, I cannot interpret how this player fits into this workflow. I have Quicktime Pro 7.6.9
Also, if I am able to get the files into Streamclip, will it bring the audio files along with it? If not, how do I convert audio so that I can import it into my project.
Many thanks
Cedric
