Sounds like you want to rip from an existing DVD, edit the ripped video, and then upload to the website.

Ripping DVDs, I use Mac The Ripper. Go to www.versiontracker.com, and download the latest version there.

Editting video, iMovie ought to fit the bil.

Uploading to the website, some type of file transfer capability, such as FTP on the host side will work.

Yes, we have an existing DVD that was made at the church. We want to add an intro and an exit and the upload to website. Thanks for your input.I really appreciate it. We hadn't thought of using something on the host sight, but I do think they have that on the cpanel. Thanks!

Handbrake and ffmpegX will help you get video off a DVD and into a format you can edit with iDVD. They are both free.

I have also found Quicktime Pro helpful for messing around with video on a Mac, but that costs $29.99 and I don't think it reads DVD directly.

When ripping a DVD can you give me an estimated time it will take on the ibook with 1.42GHZ processor. 'Cause my husband downloading something last night he thought would do it,but it was going to take about five hours. That seemed to be way to long to him(plus he didn't have five hours. It was midnight by this time:-). Was wondering how long it usually takes you with the Mac the Ripper software?

Ok...we have ripped the movie with Mac the Ripper, but it doesn't just "go into" imovie to edit. How do we do that? The movie folders don't show up as available.
