    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.

I've seen alot of posts about this question but none that really came out with a definitive answer. I'm trying to determine whether Quicktime Pro will allow me to convert Mpeg2 files into Mov or DV so that they can be recognized by iMovie and iDVD.

I've tried using programs like ffmpeg, but wasnt too happy with the quality of the conversion. Help!

thanks in advance.

I'm on a PC right now so I can't be 100% sure, but I think that quicktime can convert Mpeg2 files. I wouldn't know why it couldn't.
