• 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... quick question.. I've created a 35 second trailer and would LOVE to insert a 7 second clip from an mp3 that I have.. BUT, how can I isolate the 7 seconds that I want (about 2:00-2:08) of the MP3..

It seems If I drag the whole mp3 into my Project it just gives me a random 35 second selection of the clip.

Drag the entire mp3 file into the timeline...then..click the small gearwheel in the corner of the clip and click on clip trimmer...when that opens you will be able to isolate the small part of the clip that is desirous..click done in upper right corner to exit clip trimmer. You will be able to drag that clip anywhere you want along the timeline....

Failing that, you can edit the clip in Garageband.
