Re: DVD recording (no otr content)

[Christian Lindemer <CD-Lindemer at wiu_edu>]

Possible?  Yes.  Difficult?  Rather.

There are two basic problems here: 

1) Ripping the movie content from the disc (There are tools to do this 
with either Windows or Mac (OS X), but there are *more* tools available 
for Windows.)

2) Snipping out the portion of the movie you want.  (I don't know of the 
appropriate Mac programs - my Mac doesn't have a DVD drive - but the 
Windows ones are not that hard to find.

3) Optional, but highly recommended:  re-compress the film clip to make 
it much smaller.

I would suggest looking around http://doom9.net/ particularly in the 
"Guides" section.  All the information you will need is there, though 
it's focused on ripping entire DVDs for copying.
