• 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.

Okay so I'm new to Mac and this may be a simple fix but I'm not sure. I had two movies that were in two different parts. I was thinking I could take iMovie and combine them so it is one whole file and one whole movie. I tried to import them as an AVI but that didn't work. I figured converting them to MOV would work but when I search for them in import movies they are greyed out. What am I doing wrong? I'll attach a screenshot to show you what I'm talking about.
