How do import footage off of a DVD into Premiere?

I'm helping a lady do a project that involves capturing video and importing pictures, etc. It's just like a little home video for her grandkids and family, for the intro of the video she wants to put in footage from a "Blues Clues" kids DVD (bascially the first 5 or 10 minutes of the DVD). Is this something you can do on Premiere 1.5? I'm guessing you would have to rip the video which I did try, but when I ripped it, I get a Video TS folder, is there a simple way to import that into Premiere? Please help.
Thanks,
Jason

Jason,
There is no direct way to do this. The VIDEO_TS folder will have one, or more .VOB files. What you are looking for is probably in the first of these. You might get lucky (.VOB files can contain a lot more than just the Video & Audio), and copy that VOB to your computer. Rename it with an .MPG extension, and try to Import that - might work for your purposes.
One could do a capture via a DVD deck, a capture card, or bridge, and the software that comes with the card. One could also use their video camera as a bridge, if it has pass-through capabilities. One could record from the DVD player WITH their video camera to tape and Capture this in Premiere.
Or, one could rip the DVD completely. This ARTICLE explains much of that.
Good luck. Premiere Elements does a much better job, with some VOB's than does PrPro.

Importing from a DVD into Premiere CS6 and MPG files.

HI I'm new to this forum and to CS6. I'm well versed in CS3 Premiere and other earlier versions.
I have a problem importing the VOB files from a DVD into Premiere CS6. I copied the VIDEO_TS folder from the DVD onto my hard drive and successfully imported the 3 VOB files that made up the 1 hour video. Upon placing them into a sequence (720 x 576 25fps DV PAL to match the DVD) I found that when I played over a join between the VOB files, the picture and sound briefly broke up. Is this normal? There is no encryption on the DVD.
I then used MPEG Streamclip to convert the DVD to a MPG2 with MP2 audio file (thereby avoiding a decode and the subsequent recode when I encode the edited version, I.E. DVD is MPEG2 so I want to extract the video with the minimum of processing.) I tried to import this into Premiere but after it thought about it for a while, the resulting icon in the Project Window indicated that the file was not usable. Indeed it was not. I deleted it...... and then imported it again. It worked! This is not just a one-off occurrence. Any thoughts?
Premiere is fully updated along with all the other programs in CS6. Using Windows 7 64 bit.
bye Andrew

I have same issue too.
Who can help me
Used "Media Encoder" encore three . VOB(form DVD) files to WMV.
And used Premiere to import the file between the VOB files,
the sound briefly broke up.
If change to import .VOB form dvd,the sound briefly broke up too.
thanks!

Imported dvd into premiere pro 2014 as a linked file with audio and video but audio from previous editing file is playing with video

I am editing in premiere pro 2014 on a windows 8.1 system with 12 mega byes of ram. I imported a dvd into premiere from a .f4v that was
burned using freemakevideo converter.
I imported the DVD into premiere and the audio that is playing is from an previous project I edited with the program, as oppose
to, the audio that is linked with the video imported.
Do you know why this is? I cleaned my media cache and I rebooted my machine.
Please help

Without knowing the specs of your videos it is hard to say. I'm also running a Mac and am having no such issues.
My first thought is that you have something from a 3rd party installed that is causing conflicts. If all else fails try transcoding your mp4 files to a frame based codec using the Adobe Media Encoder. Pick one of the Apple production codecs or Jpeg compressed QuickTime.
Are you running a ram preview? Did you render your Premiere timeline? Are you new to AE?

How to import photo from album in Iphone into computer?

You can't. You can import from the Camera Roll only.
Photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process should remain on your computer. Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process - the original resolution of these photos is reduced, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported. These photos should remain on your computer and be included with your computer's backup.
There are some 3rd party paid utilities that provide for transferring these photos in the opposite direction but such utilities are not supported by Apple and the original resolution of these photos will be lost.
Here is one such utility.

DVD into Premiere CS4 for Dummies

Will someone please write an article or short, simple book with this title? Surely it would sell! And then let me know when it's finished and I will be the first one to buy it. It needs to written to non-techies like me who understand video editing, but not the input and output information...compression and stuff, and all the practical application in ways we dummies can understand. Could it be written as a simple textbook, with an elementary/middle school audience in mind so we can understand it? We just want to make music videos. Please, make it simple for us: do this (and make it clear) and then tell us that if that doesn't work, then this is what you do and why. And cover all the bases - don't leave us hanging and wondering. Wow - I've already looked for a book like this on Amazon. It is a real need. Even Adobe Premiere CS4 Classroom in a Book doesn't give you an inkling of how to get DVDs into Premiere. Do they just asuume that because it's easy for them that it's easy for us? We are hairstylists, English teachers, carpenters, plumbers, electricians,fulltime moms...computers are not our major. Once I finally figure all of it out, and it's clear in my mind, I will write the book if no one else has. : )

How to import footage to an external hard drive in Final cut pro X

I am having trouble importing footage from camera directly to an external hard drive in final cut pro X. When I go to import the footage, and select where I want it to be saved, my external drive is not even listed. It shows up fine on desktop and in final cut pro 7. I also unchecked the box in FCPX preferences of "copy files to final cut pro folder". Any advice is appreciated.

Nevermind, I hooked up my other external that is formatted Mac OS Extended that is used for time machine and FCPX recognized it fine. I guess I will have to reformat the MS-DOS harddrive to Mac OS extended as well.

How to import footage from Sony F55 to Premiere CS6?

I'm going to shoot a project on HD with a Sony F55 (not in 2k or 4k). My DoP has given me some test footage, but I am unable to import the footage into Premiere. Can it import native or do I need to download any additional elements?
Thanks, Jason

Thanks. When I try and import the file, right now I just get a green blank screen when the clip comes up. (I have successfully loaded the plug-in). I just dragged and dropped the clip plus its supplementary files into the project, and is said that 3 of the supplementary files weren't compatible (one is .mxf.bmp and one is .BIM). The .mxf clip itself is what appears, but it is just blank. I'm wondering if I'm loading the clip wrong?

Importing Sony DVDirect Video on DVD into FCE

Hello...good wishes,
I've been recording video from a Canon XL2 directly to DVD using a Sony VRD-VC20 DVDirect DVD Burner. When I try to import this video material into Final Cut Express, FCE does not recognize the format.
Apple Support says that the XL2 Camcorder is a supported device in FCE, but is not able to be conclusive regarding video recorded to DVD using the Sony DVDirect Burner.
The only way I've found to get any of this video into FCE is to play the DVD's in a standard DVD player' record the video back onto DV tape, and import them through the XL2. This is a daunting, funky proposition given the hours and hours of video I need to edit - and I worry about degradation of quality using this process.
Are there any third party drivers written out there or do any of you have ideas how I can get this video from DVD to FCE?
Thanks~

I use a Sony VRD-VC20 to burn Tivo recordings and VHS tapes to DVD. I just picked up a program called Cinematize2. It's a DVD clip extractor that retails for about $50 US. It allows you to set an in and out point on a DVD and extract the clip into a format compatible with FCP/FCE. Previously I used MPEG Streamclip 1.3.1 which allows you to export mpeg2 files to Quicktime, AVI, or DV format for use in FCP/FCE. Mpeg Streamclip also allows you to set in and out points before exporting. The link to download MPEG Streamclip 1.5.1 is: http://www.alfanet.it/squared5/mpegstreamclip.html.
In order to use the MPEG2 playback and converter feature you will also need the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component. You can buy it from Apple (www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2) for about $30 US. If you have either Final Cut Pro or DVD Studio Pro, then the component is already installed and you don't have to buy it; but you may need to download the latest version from Apple (www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/download).

How to import old iPhone SMS.CSV file into new iPhone?

Hey everyone,
So I've spent a couple days on this as I just upgraded to the iPhone5S from my 4S. Long story short, my backup restore didn't work after multiple tries (gave me the file is corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone error).
I tried:
-reinstalling itunes
-updating itunes
-combining the 5S backup with the old 4S backup
-tinyumbrella
and a few of other things as I've forgot now.
The most important things I needed was the contact list and SMS history. I've got the contact list from extracting is successfully from the iTunes backup folder and using iCloud, but cannot figure out how to import the SMS.CSV file into my iPhone5S.
Any suggestions on how I can get my SMS messages from my iPhone4s into my 5S?
If anyone has any other suggestions on getting my Backup Restore to work that would be awesome too!
Thanks!

A word on SMS text messages. It is pracitcally impossible to import an SMS text-messages file to a new iPhone and have the Messages app on the new device read the messages.
You can transfer, however contacts and other individual data (such as calendars and notes) from one iphone to the next. I had my old Nokia which whose contacts I exported to a CSV file. I then imported the file to my iphone which converted the file into multiple contacts in the Contacts app on the iphone. You can use a contact management app such as this one in order to import the contact file to the new iPhone.

How can Import Mysql my database and Table into website -

Hi,
friend i am using CS3 ,i made all need tables in database ,I need to know
how can import that database /table into website.
I know in domin there is admin Mysql inside i have found impotr/export/ but
when I click import i do not know where my database/table been save to import it

If all you are trying to do is change an existing tablepace from a single datafile to multiple datafiles, then a simple import will work fine. Just create the tablespace in the new database with multiple files, then do the import normally.
If you want to move segments into different tablespaces, or change the names of the tablespaces, then you will need to precreate the tables before importing. Then, do the export with indexes=N and constraints=N. Run import with the resulting file, then re-create the constraints and indexes in the new tablespaces.

How to import the .exp/XPDL/XSDL file into ALBPM Studio 5.7

Hi,
Can somebody tell how to import the .exp file that are developed in ALBPM Studio 6.0/Oracle BPM 10g r3 into ALBPM 5.7. I have tried but can not able to import the project as the file suported by ALBPM 5.7 is <.fpr.exp>. I have also tried to import the XPDL/XSDL file developed in 6.0 to 5.7 but can not able to do so. It is importing the file but the only the automatic activities are showing in workspace (All the other activities like Interactive, Grab etc are not displayed). The code inside that automatic activities are also not there.
How to import the file/files in ALBPM 5.7
Regards,
Bibhu

Hi Bibhu,
I expect importing a project to an older version of BPM isn't going to work or be supported.
Most products are built to be backwards compatabile, not forwards compatible.
I recommend you go to one version of the product anyway - trying to maintain two adds to your maintenance and support overheads.
In which case migrating your processes from 5.7 to 6.0 (or even 10g) would be supportable and the best way to go.
Rgrds,

How to import a 2010 list or library into 2013

Hi,
Does someone have a good guideline or idea on how to import an exported 2010 list or library into Sharepoint 2013?
thanks for any help
regards
Martin

Though a little hands-on it is actually possible to do that without third party solutions! (with limitations)
On 2010 go into the list settings
Choose save list as template
Give it a name and check "Include content"
Download the .stp file from the list template gallery
Upload it to the list template gallery on your SharePoint 2010/2013 site
Create a list from it, the template should appear in the available templates when choosing the right locale
Voilá :-)
This also works from 2007 to 2010/2013 though it is a little trickier...
On 2007 go into the list settings
Choose save list as template
Give it a name and check "Include content"
Download the .stp file from the list template gallery
Rename it to .cab
Extract it
Open the manifest.xml
Change
<ProductVersion>3</ProductVersion>
to
<ProductVersion>4</ProductVersion>
Save
Pack everything with makecab.exe to a cab file (I'll come to that later)
Rename .cab to .stp
Upload it to the list template gallery on your SharePoint 2010/2013 site
Create a list from it, the template should appear in the available templates when choosing the right locale
So, now to the problems:
This does only work for lists/libraries with content less than 10MB :-(
This is a limitation of SharePoint and you cannot get arround that.
So that might most likely limit the approach to your task list.
Creating a CAB file is not really straigthforward. You need to create an inf file which describes the data which will be stored. See also here
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/3h8ff753(v=vs.80).aspx
In some cases the template does not show up in the dialogs, then you can only create the list through PowerShell, i.e. like that
# important, upload the .stp file first to the list template gallery of the site of the web where the list should be created
$webUrl = "http://<yourweburl>" # web in which you want to create the list based on the custom template
$listTemplateName = "<yourlisttemplatename>" # the name with which you saved the list into the list template gallery
asnp Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell
$web = Get-SPWeb $webUrl
$listTemplate = $web.Site.GetCustomListTemplates($web)[$listTemplateName]
$Web.Lists.Add("ListName", "", $listTemplate);
4. Lookup columns are referenced with the list instance guid. As a result you would require to create the lookup lists first, then update the guid in the manifest.xml and then create the other list
5. Manage Metadata columns won't work unless you migrated the data base too from 2010 to 2013 and the guids of the terms remain.
Some time ago I wrote a PowerShell script which takes care all the above for you (including lookup columns), but this was still from 2007 to 2010.
I need to test it first on 2013 before I am going to post it here.
