How do I cut a movie into numerous smaller videos?

I have a DVD/movie in iTunes that is simply a bunch of music videos. I want to divide this one DVD/movie into the 10 separate music videos it actually is. Can someone help me with this? I couldn't find any existing topics on it. Thanks!

Not sure if this will work on any sort of protected video file, but works on unprotected files (I just tried it on a home movie I have in iTunes). I use this method a lot of music, but hadn't thought to try it on a video until you posted. Anyway...
Select the video file and do a "Get Info". Under options you can set a start and stop time for the video. What you need to do is record all the start and stop times of each video. For each video you want to extract, set the start & stop times to be just that video. OK out of the Get Info box. Now right click on the video and pick the "Create iPod or iPhone Version". This will create a new COPY of the original file but it will ONLY be the part between the start and stop times you picked.
You would then have to go in and reset the start/stop times for each video and repeat. And at the end be sure to set the original video back to the full length by unchecking both the start & stop times.
Downside of this method is that you ARE creating version suitable for iPods and iPhones, so things like high definition movies may be downsized. You will have to try it and see.
Good luck,
Patrick

How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive? The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import. Can it be done?

How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive? The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import. Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC.

No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either. It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected. VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB. All of which cannot be opened or selected.
Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC. Is that the same? Thank you for your time and response.

How can i convert 3d movie into 2d to watch it in mac

i have a movie with mkv file playable on vlc how can i convert the movie into 2d

There are now a bunch of them out there. Do a Google search for "mac 3D conversion" They tend to be around $35. I have been using iSkysoft products, which have been fairly easy to use. They have a "iMedia Converter Deluxe for Mac" that besides the 3D to 2D conversion, will also convert video to 70+ formats, has a 1-Click Video Downloader, and a single click Rip DVD and Burn to DVDs feature. Also claims to be "Ultrafast" all for the same price others apps are that only do the conversion.

How to import DVD-R movie into Keynote?

I just transferred a video (with audio) from a VHS tape to a DVD-R, using a stand-alone DVD Recorder. Now I need to import this into Keynote. I've tried opening/playing the DVD with iMovie iDVD, and Quicktime but they will not recognize it as a readable file. The only application that I have that even will play the disc is DVD Player.
Any suggestions how I can get this movie into my Keynote presentation will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

as log as there aren't copyright issues aren't a problem, something like Handbrake should work to convert the file to something keynote can read.

How to download a DVD movie into Premiere Elements 12 using my MacBook Pro so I can edit the video?

How to download a DVD movie into Premiere Elements 12 using my MacBook Pro so I can edit the video?

Bob Perez
Please review and consider the following which works for me in Premiere Elements 12 Window 64 bit.
From what you wrote, I suspect that you have DVD-VIDEO widescreen on DVD disc. For now I will assume that you are working in a NTSC setup.
Premiere Elements DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc is characterized as interlaced video with field order lower (bottom) field first. I am not sure how your DVD-VIDEO on DVD was produced - upper (top) field first or lower (bottom) field first. We may have to apply Field Option Reverse Field Dominance at the Timeline level, but for now let us put that aside for a later time.
Insert your DVD disc in the DVD burner tray.
Open Premiere Elements to the Expert workspace and set the project preset manually for NTSC DV Widescreen. How to details for manual project preset setting are found
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
Then, Add Media/DVD camera or Computer Drive/Video Importer.
The video files from the DVD-VIDEO will be the larger size files and will probably start with VTS_01_1.VOB.
In the Video Importer designate the save location for video file VOB(s) and select Add to Timeline and hit Get Media
to put the files on the Timeline for editing.
If you have more than one DVD disc to "rip", please set up the Video Importer Save In location so that the save in location has a folder for each disc. The fact that all DVDs have the same VTS_01_1.VOB name etc will cause problems if you saved all to the same place as individual files.
Determine how that works for you in your Mac computer environment. We will be watching for your progress.
Others may tell you that you need to convert the VOB to another format before import into Premiere Elements. That is no necessary for Premiere Elements.
Thank you.

Hi Sridhar,
I would like to Replace the Charecter values with numeric value in my string.
Exp : first in my string I am having the value like this : 'ABCD1234' ( may be any char and num values ), and I want too get it by '99991234'.
So, if i understand you correctly, you want to replace all characters in a string with 9 as in the above example, irrespective of position of the character, if so try with the below code.
DATA: l_str TYPE string.
l_str = 'ASKHSIUDNSBDKJSDH124312431243124saasdfsf'.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '\D' IN l_str WITH '9'.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
WRITE: l_str. "Result will be 9999999999999999912431243124312499999999
ENDIF.

How do I get DVD movies into iTunes (and thus my iPad)?

I have a pc with Windows XP. How do I import my DVD movies into iTunes? Do I need to buy additional software? Or is my best bet joining netflix?
Thanks!

you can copy them for your own use.
Copying is not the issue. Breaking the encryption is.
But it's kind of a catch 22 in that you cannot copy a DVD unless you break the encryption.
in Europe it is not
Europe is not one country.
Most European countries have their own equivalent of the DMCA and it is illegal to break the encryption in some of these countries.

How to get Samsung F34BN movies into iMovie

I just got a Samsung F34BN for Christmas and I can't see from the instructions how to import its movies into iMovie (either 6, 8, or 9). Help OB1, your my only hope

I have a samsung hmx-h100...try this...if the camcorder came with windows software, turn it off in the camera's menu setting...if it has a memory card (like mine), once you've taken your video, connect the usb cable to your mac...the camera should mount on your desktop...double click the samsung icon, navigate to the video folder, and you should see your video clips...drag them onto the desktop...then open up your version of imovie, click import, and select the clips on your desktop...I had various degree of success doing that with imovie 6...imovie 8 handled it well...the other thing you can do if you want to use imovie 6 is use MPEG Streamclip, drag your clips into it, then export to quicktime...you should then be able to import your quicktime movie into imovie 6 and edit...

How do I get iPhone movies into iTunes' movie menu in the sidebar?

I've tried to get iPhone movies into iTunes, but they turn into .MOV files and won't transfer!
I've tried exporting iPhone movie files from iPhoto into iTunes shared movie files (Movies folder), but
they don't appear in the iTunes movie list! They don't appear in the iPad video app either!
What's the story! . . . . thanks f

Allan, I tried all you suggested. I ended up with 'IMG' files in the source list, and they won't play. When double clicked they try to open for a blink, then back to the list.
When exporting the iPhone video from iPhoto, what did you fill out in the dialogue box. All I saw were selections referring to photos (jpeg, medium, etc.) I didn't see choices for video! Wouldn't it be just as easy to just drag
the video from the iPhoto thumbnails to the desktop? Am I missing something here?
Thanks again
