  • DVDxDV pro question

    Posted by Paul Nevison on October 6, 2005 at 11:18 am

    hey there

    I have permission (a special license from a 3rd party) to use clips from a network sitcom and am trying to use DVDxDVpro to lift the clips from a DVD to ingest into our video server. DVDxDVpro is playing back green screen and the audio is jumping all over the place.

    could this have something to do with the copy protection on the dvd? i though this programme was able to circumvent this process – which of course is only ever acceptable with the right legal permissions.

    any ideas?

    thanks

    DVDxDV cannot bypass copy protection.

    You are going to have to use something else.

    If you have permission why would they not provide a suitable videotape master?

    Other than that you may want to capture off the video out of a DVD player instead.

    There’s a certain program that rhymes with an old serial killer named Jack the Ripper that will do what you need. Jack used Macs all of the time. I’ll leave it up to you to find the rest.

    My advice to avoid all those troubled waters is to just go component out of your dvd player and capture it in FCP that way in stead of go through 2 different programs to import it in FCP. Of course, if you don’t have permission then you’ll walk the plank;)
