• 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.

I want to take clips from DVD's to build up a libary of shots I like.

I have been using Handbrake, which is cool, but it has to rip the whole DVD.

Is there a dvd ripper where you can set an in and out time so I can just take the clip I want rather than waiting hours for Handbrake to rip the whole DVD.

Also whats the best way to get from mpeg4 to a format Final Cut Pro Can handle native, DV Pal in my case, with minimum loss of quality.

I am new to macs so please be gentle with me.

try "cinematize 2". It can rip clips from "unprotected" (have to use MacTheRipper to copy DVD to HDD) DVDs in full quality DV, mpeg2 stream and save separate audio and video files

I think it costs 20€
