need software help, upload a video from my dvd

hey guys how are you doing? i need some help finding a software tool where i can take (record) a clip from my dvd (i was i a movie) cause i wanted to make a trailer that i can upload. I hope you guys can lead me in the right direction thanks again

 

anyone?

 

If I want short clip from a DVD I use DVD Shrink in reauthor mode. I select the start/stop points then Backup. At that point I abort the burn but now I've got a .vob file of my clip.

I can then encode that to any format I want.

 

hey thanks good idea, how do you encode it to a format uploadable to my website? thanks again

 

A VOB is basically an mpeg2 file so you've got lots of choices for software to use. You could open it with Virtualdubmod then encode it to Xvid to compress it.

 

thanks im going to try that out i'll keep you posted thanks again.
