Hey! I'm new to all this stuff, so bare with me! I wanted to put a DVD into Windows Movie maker, so I put a DVD onto my hard drive, but I can't play it. I have all the files mentioned above, but my computer says it hasn't got the software to read...or support...the formats (VOB, IFO etc). What do I do? What software do I need to read these files?
what did you use to rip the movie?? to view, use win dvd, powerdvd, nero showtime, etc not sure but try downloading ffdshow, might have the codec
also, have a check of the guides section regarding burning with a dvd burner, or encoding to vcd/svcd if youve only got cdrw drive, if you want to watch on your standalone
rip the DVD? Oh gosh! Uh, I copied it to my hard drive. I don't know if that is ripping it. I got PowerDVD, and played the clips in that, but it was only sound. To put the clips into moviemaker they have to be WMV (or something), so I'm downloading a program that'll convert it. Has anyone actually put a movie from a dvd into moviemaker?
