i have a possible project: to take dance scenes (3-5 minutes each) from bollywood dvds to my mac, then connect them, and burn to a dvd. this is for non-commercial use (for a private party).
they want to run the finished piece (sans sound!) projected on a wall.

i thought, to get the scenes only (as opposed to handbraking the whole films) by running a dvd thru a converter (like elgato's eyetv plus) to my mac, into...quicktime??

not sure, would appreciate suggestions on how best to do the above...

thanx!

I think Cinematize would be handy.

i'll check that out, but...will it work with commercial dvds??

It might not, but MactheRipper is your friend if it doesn't.

I used to run it to extract the title/movie opening sequences from commercial DVDs… so it can be done, but truth be told I can't say if I had ripped the movies before, I haven't used it for a long time, it was PPC by then and I didn't care to pay for a newer version.
