    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.

iMovie only has one video layer (correct me if im wrong havent used it in months) if you want multiple video layers you need final cut express

alternatively slice the video layer, cut out the section that you dont want, and paste in the picture that you want to replace. You will have to unlink the sound and video though so that when you cut out the video clip you leave the sound layer alone.
