How to convert files

i just dragged and dropped a home movie tat i had saved from dvd to my mac and i was wondering how to convert the files to bring them into imovie (they are currently .BUP .IFO .VOB)
what do i do to convert??

you will need a free program called MPEG Streamclip and a $20 program available online through the Apple Store called Apple Quicktime MPEG2 Playback Component. After you have installed both programs, you can open MPEG Streamclip, and drag the VOB files into the workspace of MPEG Streamclip. If it offers to fix timecode breaks, say yes. You should be able to play it and see what it looks like. You can export it from MPEG Stramclip into a format that is editable by iMovie. I would recommend QuickTime/AIC as the highest quality, but DV will also work. You may also want to deinterlace in this step. You can experiment with deinterlaced or interlaced and see which looks better, but for most MPEG2 source, I would deinterlace.
Now open iMovie and do a File/Import.

    I tried to give an answer with less steps. I know it's a Pages file & all you have to do is select & copy the content in your Pages file & then open Preview.app. Next time I'll include the exporting to PDF & opening that in Preview.app or in Pages go to File > Print > click on the PDF button in the lower left of the print window & choose Open in Preview.

    Kindly help me.....
    Thanks
    Naveen

    you can send a file as an exel attachment in mail,
    step 1:
       send file data to an internal table.
    step 2:
       loop through the internal table(itab).
        concatinate itab-field1
                          abap_char_utilities=>horizontal tab
                         itab-field2
                         abap_char_utilities=>horizontal tab
                        abap_char_utilities=>vertical tab
            into t_attachment-line
    append t_attachment
    step 3:
    Fill the document data and get size of attachment
      CLEAR w_doc_data.
      READ TABLE it_attach INDEX w_cnt.  
      w_doc_data-doc_size =
      ( w_cnt - 1 ) * 255 + STRLEN( it_attach ).
    Describe the body of the message
      CLEAR t_packing_list.
      REFRESH t_packing_list.
      t_packing_list-transf_bin = space.
      t_packing_list-head_start = 1.
      t_packing_list-head_num = 0.
      t_packing_list-body_start = 1.
      DESCRIBE TABLE it_message LINES t_packing_list-body_num.
      t_packing_list-doc_type = 'RAW'.
      APPEND t_packing_list.
    Create attachment notification
      t_packing_list-transf_bin = 'X'.
      t_packing_list-head_start = 1.
      t_packing_list-head_num = 1.
      t_packing_list-body_start = 1.
      DESCRIBE TABLE t_attachment LINES t_packing_list-body_num.
      t_packing_list-doc_type = 'XLS'.
       t_packing_list-doc_size = t_packing_list-body_num * 255.
      t_packing_list-obj_name   = 'Attachment'.
      t_packing_list-obj_descr  = 'mail xls'
      APPEND t_packing_list.
    Add the recipients email address
      CLEAR t_receivers.
      REFRESH t_receivers.
        MOVE: mail id TO t_receivers-receiver,
        'U' TO t_receivers-rec_type,
        APPEND t_receivers.
      CALL  FUNCTION 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1'
        EXPORTING
          document_data              = w_doc_data
          put_in_outbox              = 'X'
          commit_work                = 'X'
        TABLES
          packing_list               = t_packing_list
          contents_bin               = t_attachment
          contents_txt               = it_message
          receivers                  = t_receivers
        EXCEPTIONS
          too_many_receivers         = 1
          document_not_sent          = 2
          document_type_not_exist    = 3
          operation_no_authorization = 4
          parameter_error            = 5
          x_error                    = 6
          enqueue_error              = 7
          OTHERS                     = 8.
    check the FM and creat the internal table types
    by this way you can send excel as an attachment 
    but problem in sending EXCEL attachment is if the data crosses the limit of excle file the file will not open.

  • ITunes 8 (OSX 10.4.11) how to convert files.

    In iTunes 8, how do I convert my AIFF files to another format? Following the iTunes help doesn't work. It says open Prefs, then Advanced and then importing. Seems no importing tab appears in my vs of the Prefs Advanced window.

    In the main iTunes window, in list view, highlight a tune and click Advanced in the menu bar. From the drop-down list, select 'Create MP3 version' and it performs the conversion, resulting in a file of the same name but w/ an .MP3 extension instead of .AIF.
    Another method:
    When the 'pod is connected, in the Settings Pane, check the box next to 'Convert higher bit rates to 128 Kbps AAC' and this will perform the conversions as the files are loaded onto the Pod. Note that this will make the loading process take longer, but you'll save a huge amount of space and you won't have two copies (AIF and MP3) of each music file.

  • How to convert files for transfer

    I borrowed a friends camera Canon XF300 and am shooting in 1920x1080 30p.  We have been moving the data files to a laptop, but need to convert the files to import to FCP7.  What's a good conversion software for this?

    Thanks for joining in, Shane.  Question is, Can you reconstruct it just by adding the "Empty" folders?  We tried this, but it seems the files that were not captured with the folders titled...

    ....still aren't recognized.  We tried adding thes "Dummy" folders, but can't seem to Fake Out Final Cut.  We also had a card with the raw files on it and added the other files that were brought in without the "parent" folder, but FCP won't recognize these.  It seems that if all the info is there, there must be some way to construct them, but I just can't figure out how....

    give that app a try:

    legal, handy, very Mac-like in usage... plus a free trial, you can test, how it works for you....

  • How to convert file format using bfile datatype

    <pre>
    Hi all,
    Assume, i has a table BFILE_IMAGE and it table structure is similar like:
    SQL> desc bfile_image;
    Name Null? Type
    IMAGE_ID NUMBER
    FILE_NAME VARCHAR2(30)
    IMAGE BINARY FILE LOB
    SQL>
    Is that impossible if we can use process() function with bfile datatype? similar like:
    ordsys.ordimage.process(image,'fileFormat=JPEG contentFormat=24BITRGB');
    The line above is work with blob datatype but doesn't with bfile datatype. Can you please give me some idea how to deal with it.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    a BFILE is content stored outside the Oracle database. It is a read-only object.
    process() is an in-place modification of the image. This is only possible with BLOB stored content.
    If you are using BFILE you could use the processCopy() method to create a new copy of the BFILE stored image that has been processed according to your command.
