# not really
i am creating a soundtrack for a scene and the sound software (protools) has a thing where you can import the movie so you can sync up sounds as you record. so really i need an mpg or a mov that it can understand. any ideas? i have been googling but there is a lot of technical guff that i don't understand, well, most of it actually. i just want to take five minutes of a film and turn it into an mpg or mov.

# not really
apart from possibly getting hold of movie editing software and using that instead

virtualdub's a good free basic video editor, but it's not got the options you need...

# oooh!
what about some way of capturing the dvd image? i don't need the audio, is there some way i can play the dvd and capture a moving image and save it as an mpg or something?

# well
you could potentially use something like HyperSnap to create a screen-capture movie...
