Importing a DVD made on another machine

Is it possible to import a non-copyrighted DVD made elsewhere into I-movie or Final Cut Express. I've inserted the DVD and it plays fine in Quicktime Player. Is there anyway to get it directly into FCX?
Thanks.

Thank you very much. I tried streamclip but couldn't make it work. I think I'll hook up my DVD player through my Analog/digital converter and import that way. Sounds simplest.

  • Importing existing site made in another app into iWeb

    Hi,
    Is it possible to import to iWeb a site created in RapidWeaver? Or, at somehow have any new iWeb site I do, and keep the work I did the in RW online.
    I don't necessarily need to edit it, but I'd like to keep that RW site intact and available.
    Also, Roddy, thanks for this link you put in another thread- I've got a lot to study:

    No; iWeb cannot import existing sites. If you have the HTML and other files from RapidWeaver, store them on your hard disk, and then use iWeb to publish to a folder, posting those pages as desired.

  • Can I import web pages made on another computer to iWeb?

    I have more than one Mac, and while in the hospital celebrating the birth of my son, I made a few pages on iWeb with my iBook.
    Once home I wanted to transfer those to my G5 for editing. How do I do that?

    ilovetrainskc:
    Yes you can do that. You can either merge the two Domain.sites files into one with iWebSites or use them independently by renaming one of the to SiteName.sites and then use iWebSites to open them independently and publish independently.
    I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
    If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process.
    This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.

    How do I do the importing.

    If the video is already on a DVD:
    You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:

  • Can't import photos from another machine???

    I have downloaded a few albums on another machine and then brought a copy home to put on my iPhoto library but every time I try to import I get an error message saying:
    '+The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data).+'
    All the images are in Jpeg format!

    they are in my iPhoto Library
    How did they get there? iPhoto will not import pics from the active iPhoto Library Folder - a protection against duplication. There is never a need for the user to enter that folder and anytime you do you risk damaging your Library.

  • Import Dvd made with Studio into iMovie?

    Hello,
    I switched from Pinnacle Studio 9.x to iMovie. Now I want to remake a homemade DVD with iMovie. On the DVD are the following maps: Audio_Ts and Video_TS.
    I haven't succeded in importing this DVD into iMovie. Is there a simple way to do this or does it mean a difficult workaround?

    Sorry. Only after I had posted this item I found yhe answer : https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2255575?start=0&tstart=0

  • CD-ROM not detected on notebook, but tested on another machine and works.

    I am checking my dad's laptop, a Compaq Presario F700 (F761US). It has a couple of problems, but the main one is that the DVD drive is not detected by Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit. The BIOS doesn't seem to detect it either when I put a bootable disc and try to force it to boot from the drive; it only detects the hard drive.
    I have even removed the drive and tested on another machine and it DOES in fact work.
    I even upgraded the BIOS to the latest version (F.0.A) to no avail.

    Hello MysticalChicken.  I understand you're having some trouble with your CD-ROM.
    First, install those service packs!  Those are very important updates.  
    Have you tried cleaning the inside of the CD-ROM with canned air?
    The "whirring/clicking" noise leads me to believe this is a mechanical problem.  The click could very well be the disc touching something while it is spinning at a high speed.  Let me know if cleaning the CD-ROM has any effect on the noise.
    Have a wonderful day and I'll keep an eye out for your reply.
    Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"

  • IMovie 6 to iDVD, want to burn on another machine

    I have a new intel MAC dual core machine running iLife 6, but no DVD burner.
    I have an older MAC with ilife 5 that has a DVD burner. I have made a rather long movie ~ 2 hrs, that I want to burn to a DVD. Question, is there some way I can save the movie on the new machine as some sort of exportable file that I can copy to the old machine have it burn it to a DVD?
    iMAC and intel iMAC   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   intel has 10.4.9
    iMAC and intel iMAC   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   intel has 10.4.9

    Yes you can move the DVD file to another computer in order to burn it as a DVD. In order to do this you must first go under the file menu at the top, then go down to where it says "save as Disc Image". This will save your DVD as a file that can be moved from one computer to the other. Once you have the file on your other computer, use the Disk Utility program that should be located in the Utility folder in applications. You then mount the Disc Image of the DVD and burn it to a DVD

  • IMovie 09 will no longer import Hitachi DVD Cam video

    Before SL install, iM would import an Apple non-supported Hitachi DVD camera...the camera is visible on the USB port but not in iM....reinstalled iM, did the usual trouble shooting tips in iM help and iM support...such as turned the cam off and on, restart the laptop, reinsert USB cables, did a disk verify and repair permissions utility...did these many times...only on 1 occasion did the computer recognize the video and it imported it fine...another crazy thing is that the time of video capture is different from the the cam disk to iM - that may be due to the unsupported nature of the cam....
    any ideas??

    If 2 computers do not detect the camera then the issue is not the computer / iMovie.
    Potential issues:
    1.) The mode the camera is in. Make sure it is configured for PC Connect or Mass Storage mode. Check your manual to determine what the required mode is for your camera.
    2.) The cable you are using between camera and computer is bad.
    3.) Physical failure in the camera itself.
    Try plugging the camera directly into the computer using USB (no hubs) while running on AC power and cycle through the various connection modes. See if the camera mounts on the desktop (as I assume it does normally).
    If it fails to mount on either computer I would call Sony so they can verify the camera is in fact functional and even ask them what mode you need to be in for the computer to recognize it.

    File format - DOS
    Build Status Override - Run and build application
    File character set - Unicode UTF-8
    4) Clicking on Export Application creates the sql file f500 which is saved by us in our specified folder
    For Import (in another machine)
    1) Copied the f500.sql file in this machine
    2) Login to workspace as hr/hr

    4) Import file - Specified our file name
    File Type - Application/page export
