Hello,
First off, please forgive my ignorance, I'm relatively new here.
I'm trying to transfer my home movies to my iMac to edit a movie for my niece's graduation. I used a VHS to DVD conversion deck (I have VHS, miniDV, 8mm's). I read that i needed to copy the VTS .VOB files from the DVD to my computer. It worked on one of the DVD's I made. I keep getting an error message "The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “VTS_01_1.VOB” can’t be read or written.
(Error code -36)". I don't think I did anything different during the transfer on each DVD so I can't figure out what went wrong.
I was able to use HandBrake to transfer the .VOB file to mp4 on the first (good) DVD. I'm not able to use Handbrake directly from the DVD.
I also tried to use old software I bought a few years ago (iSkySoft DVD ripper) but it won't work there, either.
I'm going crazy because I only have a few weeks to get this thing finished.
Any help (step by step, in non-geek English--Remember, I'm new! ) :Blushing: will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Michelle
