How can I capture a DVD that's encrypted with a Green screen in my video editing program? My ultimate goal is to simply capture a 20 second clip of the movie and edit it in my video editing program. I have the DVD X Copy Software, it made a copy of the movie but when I tried to capture scenes in the video editing progranm a green screen appeared leading me to believe that the movie was still encrypted. How do I overcome this program.
imyers49, You can rip it with DVD Shrink, once done, you'll have all your VOB's and can explore them at will - "P"
Hiya, The green screen problem comes from your DVD Player Application using Video Overlay. Just off the top of my head and without trying too hard, I can think of four ways to get the clip you want: 1 - try switching off Video Overlay (might be known as Hardware Acceleration), and try capturing. 2 - Use a VOB/DVD editing/authoring package (TMPG DVD Author is one) to grab the clip as an MPEG-2. 3 - Use Shrink/DVDStripper/Titleset Blanker etc etc to seperate out the clip you want. 4 - use IFOEdit to strip the clip you want. There must be many other ways to do it. Hope this helps....
Thanks In Advance. I downloaded Shrink and I was able to grab the video without the green screen. (YEAH) but, there is no audio. First, Shrink made me save the movie to a folder. When I imported the movie into WinDVD Creator, there was no sound. Is there a way to capture sound along with the video? I also want to have the option for close captioning, is that possible? And lastly, will Shrink allow me to capture any scene I want? Lamar
lamar, Me thinks my Amigo de "Doc" may have overloaded you - DVD Shrink was to get your files from your copy so that you can start working with it - I'm not the guy who understands most of his offerings but his suggestion of using TMPGEnc DVD Author to grab your clip seems the easiest way to go - I have zero experience with his other 3 offerings - Sorry "Doc", I've never been down that road :-( Mayhaps you could help our little friend should he get neck deep in muck - - he,he
I am trying to Capture Video and Constantly see a Green Screen. Can you please explain each step to doing ALL of these, thank you guys!!!! 1 - try switching off Video Overlay 2 - Use a VOB/DVD editing/authoring package 3 - Use Shrink/DVDStripper/Titleset Blanker 4 - use IFOEdit to strip the clip you want. I am a newbie to all of this and have tried on my own to find the above suggestions and have come up blank. Please help.
Hiya, You are still having a problem, I see!!!! Ok, you want a clip from a DVD... Will MPEG-2 be acceptable for you? Will your chosen editing program handle it? It seems you are using WinDVD Creator, so it should be happy with it. Let's get this problem licked..
