You’ll first need to use DVDShrink (or some other decryption application) to decode the security algorithm.

Then you need to use something to convert the resulting .vob files to .avi or .mpg.

Assuming everything works up to this point, you should be free to view and edit.

This is SO easy in theory, but I’m yet to convert a .vob successfully. Some users of Vegas (my preferred choice for video editing, which I actually BOUGHT :eek: !!) claim you can just rename a .vob to .mpg and import them into Vegas and other editing applications. I say no. It’s never worked for me.

[font=Arial][size=2]^^ that = mad work + mad time. his skill level being what it is, i’d say that that is beyond his reach.

The process of converting is so time-consuming, many pro video editors have commented that they simply recapture the footage through analog capture methods.

@PumiceT

That’s not “ripping.” That’s converting, and it’s a pain in the ass. If you find an easy, consistent, and successful way to do this without humongous software installs, let me know. Converting a .vob to anything usable in a video editing program (.avi, .mpeg, .mov) is a time-consuming, complicated process.

dude rip the DVD through DVD shrink to an image… use daemon tools (also free) viola. done, and mad d d d didididididid easy

[system]

ok well yeah i see this thing has the dvd decryptor and dvd shrink but i dunno how to work it…

lol ya know, for the longest time I couldnt figure out how to switch the “chino” profile to something else on it. I tried everything but just wouldnt work (ex. “chinos documents”) so I formated and went to media center lol

I’ll tell ya what though… for all the shit emachines catches about being a shitty brand, this has been one of the most problem free systems I’ve ever owned :tup:

with a better vid card and more memory it’s not bad still lacks in some areas but overall I’m happy :tup:
