importing dvd video into FCP

[Raju Bhai]

i installed MPEG Streamclip and read the instructions, but i just can’t figure it out. I inserted the DVD and dragged the DVD icon over the MPEG Streamclip screen. It seems to capture about 4 seconds of complete silence and no picture at all. Or maybe it didn’t do anything. I don’t understand how this works. The instructions don’t explain much. How do i capture the DVD and then convert it into a QT file with this preogram??

please help!!

short explanation on how to export DVD video with SteamClip:

Copy the TS folder from your DVD to your computer’s HD. Open Stream Clip. In StreamClip select Open Files. Find the TS folder of your DVD. Within that TS folder you will see various files. Look for a file named “VTS_01_01.VOB” (or similar name). Select that file and click on OPEN. If you selected the correct VOB file, you will see the complete video from the DVD in StreamClip’s viewer. You can mark In and Out on the timeline. Then choose “Export to Quicktime” from the file menu. Adjust the export settings as you need. To retain the best quality choose an uncompressed compression.
