Accessing/Extracting content from a DVD

I have several DVDs that contain old family films from which the original media has been damaged or destroyed. I would like to be able to import these home movies into iMovie for editing. I can create a disc image on my desktop from the DVDs, but do not know how to import the content into iMovie from there. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Scott

MPEG Streamclip will work, but you will need to purchase the $20 Apple Quicktime MPEG-2 component to make it work with DVD content. http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A?fnode=NDQ4OTY4OA&mco=MTM3NDgwNTI

Accessing KM content from within a web application

We are trying to migrate an application from a BEA webServer onto the webAS. The application relies heavily on the BEA content management system (CMS), this is to be replaced by the KM. We cannot rebuild the application using iViews etc as we have to retain the current look and feel, and hence we will have to call the KM content from the jsp code within the application. Does anyone know if this is possible and can give us an idea of what API's we call...(if the APIs exist and if this is the correct approach).
Many thanks

]> call the KM content from the jsp code
]That sounds not very well designed...
BEA have a content tag library for extracting content from the CMS within a JSP page. I think this is what James may be referring to.
Does the KM have equivalent taglibs? If so, can these be configured to access the KM running on a different J2EE instance (specifically one running on another machine).
Going to browse the API docs anyway, but if you have a short answer to this, please post.

Extract audio from a DVD how to

Is there a FREE and ease way to extract audio from a DVD?
Thank you

Set a tape recorder next to your speaker? Seriously, though - what kind of DVD? If it's a commercial DVD, it's copyright protected and people here shouldn't give you advice on how to do it. There are other places besides Apple's discussion forums to get that kind of info, and I don't see why this question belongs in "Using Mac OSX Leopard" in the first place.

Accessing KM Content from Collaboration room & Storing rooms in KM

Hi all
We have a scenario. We want to access KM Content from collaboration rooms. Is it possible?
When we create a Room Template can we change the 'Path to Initially Displayed Folder' to anything other than ' /room ' ?
Our problem is we want all the room parts to be stored inside our KM.
If anybody knows the answer please help us
Regards
Aparnna

Hi Aparna,
Your requirement is definitely possible and that's the reason for me to provide the earlier link for configuration.
Also see this link on <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/4fd9ac6c5c3c40e10000000a422035/frameset.htm">Providing Target Folders for Room Documents</a>
Here you find information about "Configure Entry Point Providers" and "Prepare the Entry Point with a KM Folder of Your Choice " which would point your rooms to the repository of your choice.
Hope this helps.

Venkat.

Is there any way to EXTRACT subtitles from a DVD?

Is there any way to EXTRACT subtitles from a DVD? My ultimate goal is to convert an existing DVD into a flash file for web use. It has subtitles which I want to retain. I have tried pulling the DVD files (.VOB) and encoding them to .wmv.
I was thinking perhaps I could import the DVD into Premiere, Encore, etc. I am able to pull the DVD video files off but the subtitles track/file is NOWHERE to be found.
Any ideas?

You cannot do this with Adobe tools. The subtitles are a separate image stream inside the vob.
As with any third party or Adobe tools, I assume you are using them for legal purposes.
Try the following link for a description of a process used. I have not used this tool. It is one of many, but I thought the description was useful.
http://www.booki.cc/avidemux/extract-dvd-subtitles/
The easier way to do this is to get the subtitle file from the creator. However, many DVDs are created using a script image file, the person authoring the disk may not have a text file of the subtitles, and I don't think you can use an image subtitle file for flash subtitles.

Extract Audio From a DVD

Is there a way to extract audio, such as a song, from a dvd and turn it into an mp3 file for recording on a CD?
Thank you for your help.

two options:
converter tool Mpeg Streamclip allows a direct export to mp3 (mp2 playback component needed, 20$)
or
connect a DVDplayer's audio-out via a cable to your Mac's audio-in, launch Garageband/Audacity/.. and record the audio..

How do I extract files from a dvd I have already burned to re-edit back in Premiere?

I'm trying to extract the files from a dvd back to Premiere, the project was assembled with Premiere Pro 1.5, I need to re-edit that same project. The dvd is not a data disk.
Please help!!

Along with the material in Eddie's link, you might want to read over this ARTICLE by Jeff Bellune, posted in the Adobe Encore FAQ's. While it addresses getting the material into Encore for authoring, much will apply to your situation.
Personally, I use an A-D bridge (though the file structure is already in digital form) to Capture directly from my DVD player to my computer. This is for non-commercial DVD's from my clients, where the original material is no longer available.. It's quick, easy and my Capture software Exports as DV-AVI Type II, so there is no additional conversion needed. If I need to work on the Menu structure, etc., then I use a workflow similar to Jeff's, outlined in his article.
Good luck, and please follow Eddie's link,
Hunt

Can I Extract Video From A DVD I Made?

I made a DVD in DVD SP 4. I no longer have the source video, but I wanted to extract some of the video from this DVD to make it into a Quicktime. Is that tough to do?

is this resolved, Mike?
'Cos the one word answer to your question : "I no longer have the source video, but I wanted to extract some of the video from this DVD to make it into a Quicktime. Is that tough to do?
Is 'No'.
It's not tough to do .. - but there are questions : as you know, Quicktimes aren't Quicktimes ... - it's just a wrapper. What do you want to make ? what size/format/porpoise/delivery method?
Do you want/need to edit ?
etc.

Extracting content from MimeMessage

I am being passed a MimeMessage Object which would contain some text. Now the problem is that the content type of the MimeMessage comes out to be
[bold]
multipart/mixed; boundary="----=_Part_1_2168521.1026163248946"
[bold]
In such a case how r u supposed to extract the content from the Mime message. In case I try the getContent method and cast the result to String
System.out.println("ModifyMsg 307 " + (String) mimeMsg.getContent());it returns a
[bold]
java.lang.ClassCastException:
[bold]
Totally lost. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It depends in the structure of your MimeMessage. I suggest you to check mimeMsg.getContent().getClass().getName(). It is a big chance that you have MimeMultipart object in there, so you should use getPart() on it, and so on and so forth recursively...

Freeware app to extract audio from a DVD?

Hello all,
Is there a freeware program I can use with OSX.3.9 to pull bits of audio from a DVD? Say about 30 seconds here, and 20 seconds there from a couple of different DVD's is all I need.
Fingers crossed, I'm on a bit of a tight schedule with this one!

Good grief... I had that on my computer already, and have never used it...
THANKS! It worked great!

Extracting images from a DVD

Hello,
I would like to extract a couple of pictures from my holiday dvd, but the grab application doesn't work when the DVD application is running. Can anyone help?
Thx
Greg

Yeah, grab and the like won't let run while DVD is opened. The program I use for that is VCL Media Player. People rant and rave about it, and it is good because of all the formats it plays. I can even have it read from a Video_TS folder, and then grab screen shots from there. Getting the shot you want can be tricky because I can't seem to get the frame-by-frame to work as nicely as in Quicktime, but this is a viable solution, plus its free!

Extracting Data from Data DVD

Hello, Sorry if this has been asked already somewhere on the forum, but I was unable to find what was looking for.
My friend burned a Data disc (the data was written on a DVD) for me on a PC and i'd like to 'Extract' that data from the disc. I can't seem to just stick the DVD in and have finder mount it, it says it's a blank disc. Is there some software I need or something or what is happening, what can I do?
Thanks

Accessing a slideshow from a DVD for use in my DVD

Hello all...
I am putting together a wedding video. I have a slideshow that was made by the brides' cousin and shown at the reception on a DVD. I want to use this slideshow in my DVD project.
The disk has Video_TS files. I also created a .dmg file from this disk.
How do I convert this into a format that I can use in my project?
Thanks for any help.

It sounds like you are talking about a DVD slideshow that is on a DVD-video disc. If that is true then your best bet would be to talk to the person who created the disc and see if you can get the original files from them.
Otherwise you could use MPEG Streamclip to extract the individual images that were used to create the slideshow. But you will loose all the associated programming (timing and order of the slides). Trying to re-create the slideshow will probably take you days of work, so you really should talk to person you created the original disc.
