hey all. i have a set of training DVDs we use at work to train our new employees. they're each about 20 to 30 minutes in length, and there's about 5 dvd's total. it would make everyone's lives so much easier if i could condence the information to one disc, but i can't figure out how to get the info into iMovie without hooking up a DVD player to a capture device. could someone please help me out here?

TIA!

You'll have to rip the DVDs first before you can edit them. I would suggest using Handbrake to do this. You can then import each of the files into iMovie to "stitch" them together and then export the movie to iDVD and either create a menu system to point to each individual movie or just have one giant video
