• 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.

Hey guys, using my EyeTV Hybrid I've been able to record some TV shows and convert them into .m4v for viewing in iTunes and on my iPhone for on-the-go. However, I need a program that will edit out the advertisements in order to cut down the filesize, and save me the hassle of fastforwarding when I watch them. iMovie doesn't seem to recognize the files, is there anything else I can use?

Thanks,
CJCS

Thanks for the suggestion!

I actually found out that my TV Tuner comes with editing software, so I can edit the shows before transcoding them to .m4v. Thanks for the help though!
