    Where is the footage coming from? If it's copyrighted stuff, you're not allow to a copy it for your own use, but what ever you do, don't put it online, or you will get burned! If it's not copyrighted material, reply back here and let us know.

    if you're sorted on the copyright front, then here's the simplest way that I know of.

    DVD Shrink

    & Virtualdub

    Use DVD Shrink re-author mode, to rip the scene, then Virtualdub to encode in AVI. :D

    Hi,
    Do you lose any quality when using these pieces of software?
    The problem I have had trying to convert from DVD to AVI is that it always seems to lose a lot of quality/resolution.
    In my case, what I have is 2 videos from a wedding - one was taken on my camcorder and is available for editing as an avi in Adobe Premiere. The other was given to me on DVD, so what I'm trying to do is get the DVD into a format suitable for Adobe to edit so I can merge the two videos and then output back to DVD.

    Cheers,
    Fergus.
