• 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.

Perhaps it's the integrated video card? I would recommend a separate video card like that on the 15" not an integrated one like that on the 13" for video editing.

A separate video card? How do I do that?

Please explain how and benefits, etc.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, you can't do that after the fact. You would have had to purchase the 15" in the first place. You might try heading to the Apple Store or Best Buy and see if the 15" operates more as you expect.
