How do I get a DVD into FCexpress?
The dvd's play up on my ibook g4, but when I try to import it with FC express it states
'File Error Wrong Type' no options, nothing when I try to drag it into the bin it says 'File Error 0 files recognized, 7 unknown' I got Mac the Ripper and tried to change the formats on the files and I still can't get it into the editing system. Can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks |

well here is where I am at now;
I got a few programs where I converted the DVD to mpeg4 and avi now they are in final cut but unrendered. I hit render both (i guess this means audio and video) and a window came up that says writing video app. 60 minutes left. I'll post how it goes. If i figure this out, i'll be glad to share my experiences with anyone who needs to know. In the meantime, please don't hesitate to post suggestions. Peace |

You need MPEG Stream Clip. Wit it you can export VIDEO_TS folders from a DVD using just about any codec imagineable.
I't one of my main tools.

Get DVDXDV. It works nicely. I've used it myself.
