hmm.. I have gotten myself a DVD burner programme - it works on some DVD format, and not on others... so I kind of work along with it... you might like to check the following threads for some free downloads... umm, some might just give you first 5 minutes but other could be for the whole show... I am not certain...
When you say use a DVD burner, do you burn the DVD to a chosen format on another Disc, into a format like mpeg, and the manipulate it with a window-movie-maker?
Yes, this would be the idea... I would download from DVD of different format into my Creative Zen. I used a program that allows direct translation into the desired format. In your case, you might like to download into a mpeg format and then use any movie maker program to edit as you wish.

ReplyDeleteI don't know a lot about that stuff, but are you sure it is not copyright-protected ? (that would explain why the record function was disabled ??)
ReplyDeleteDid cross my mind ... :(
ReplyDeleteDVD Shrink. Zaps everything, it does. Burns as well. I'll email you the .exe if you'd want.
ReplyDeleteI'll try to get a copy of it myself. But from the description I looked up, it seems that it only offers half a solution.
ReplyDeleteCould you let me know the steps you take for using DVD shrink to make copies of your favourite segments from a DVD?
No shortcut I'm afraid. You'll have to 'cut' those portions you want. Easier demonstrated than explained, but I'll ask my colleague how it's done.
