Hi Tom,
I’m editing on an iMac using Final Cut Pro 5.0.1.
The files are all on my iMac hard drive.
The files are Quicktime Movie files, codecs: Mpeg4 Video, AAC Audio
These files were ripped from DVDs using a programme called Prism.
It is the only free software I could find which would rip straight from DVD to Quicktime movie, but this was the only codec option.
I also tried using Handbrake to rip from the DVDs to AVI, then converted the AVI files to .MOV, but the loss of quality was too much.
What is the best way to get footage from authored dvds (non commercial) and into Final Cut Pro with least loss of quality?
