How can I extract video clips from a non-encrypted DVD? HandBrake is working great. Thanks. I didn't feel like installing it on my wife's iMac, but I installed it on Linux and was able to extract a chapter successfully with the defaults as media.m4v. In order to play back the video on Linux I had to install gstreamer-ffmpeg, but I'm sure it'll play fine on the iMac. I'm still a little disappointed this functionality isn't available from iLife or OS X itself but I guess it doesn't matter ultimately. I'm glad I won't to worry about losing or scratching my wedding DVD. |

Why does stock Mac OS X allow me to rip CDs but not DVDs? Thanks for this answer. I assume some sort of decoding is going on even for DVDs that are not protected by the Content Scramble System (CSS), such as home movies. I wonder what decoder Apple uses and what the license says for non-CSS DVDs. (Maybe this could be a separate question.) It seems like Apple could legally let me open iMovie and import non-CSS DVD content (i.e. home movies). I just asked another question along these lines: apple.stackexchange.com/questions/40038/… |

How can I extract video clips from a non-encrypted DVD? Thanks for this answer. I went ahead and accepted it as I'm not sure iLife or other software from Apple will work. I did try creating a .dmg of the DVD per "Part 2. How to import Non-Commercial DVD into iMovie" of "Hassle-free Ways to convert DVDs to iMovie on Mac OS X" at iskysoft.com/rip-dvd/convert-dvd-to-imovie-mac.html but I never saw "Camera Detected, Scanning Contents" in iMovie. |

How can I rename a song in iTunes with a keyboard shortcut? @ChrisJohnsen everything you say here is true. I'll just use the Enter key on my numeric keypad since it's only one button to press. Thanks! |
