    I want to remove 1 scene in the middle of a DVD video. I have a DVD .img file and was wondering what Mac software I could use to accomplish this? I’ve used Mpeg Streamclip before to extract scenes from DVD’s but am not sure how to rebuild a DVD once extracted. Any advice would be most appreciated!

    Thanks,
    HL

    Use mpeg streamclip to rip the DVD to .mov file.

    Edit mov in FCP

    Send file to compressor to create new dvd file.
    Burn disc.

    You can also rip to mv2 files in MpegSC and drop them into DVD Studio pro and burn new disc.

    Thank you for the detailed instructions Chris! I just learned that I can do the edit in DVDSP which will be the easiest solution. I don’t really care that I can only cut on the I-frame, as long as the overall Mpeg2 video quality is retained with no additional compression. Hopefully the I frame factor doesn’t interfere with the fact that my footage is 23.98 progressive.
