• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Your Mac's Specs
Late 2013 rMBP, i7, 750m gpu, OSX versions 10.9.3, 10.10
3 options that are the most commonly used here (I will note there are more, but these are the most common that are discussed):

1) If you have Snow Leopard installed (10.6) - Quicktime X has a screen recording function you can use.

2) Screenflow ( Screencasting Software - ScreenFlow Overview - Telestream ) is a very popular package here

3) iShowU HD ( iShowU HD - for OSX 10.5 (Leopard) ) although it mentions Leopard on the page, it works just fine in SL.

Any one of those will do the job. You may want to start with QuicktimeX since it's free and if you have SL, you've already got it. And if you don't like the output - and have the spare cash - download the trials of the others to see which works best for you.
