Need Program to spit Video files how I want.

After you import the whole chapter, you could use QuickTime Pro to cut a part and save it as a new file, then delete the original. iMovie may be able to achieve a similar result.

 

if you are going that route, i'd wait until QT7 is out... should be soonish.. since tiger is being released in almost 14 days

however, iMovie should do what you want.. after you've ripped itanyway.. seperate the audio from video tracks, then drag them how you want

 

If you're working with .mp4 flies, a program called Clip Creator may work for you:

I'm pretty sure it's freeware. (I don't have QT Pro either..).

 

if you only want a few seconds of each bit of the DVD the easiest way would be to capture the DVD as video in imovie. you will need a normal DVD player and a DV bridge or camcorder with video input. Plug the DVDs video & audio into the dv bridge/camcorder and then plug that into you mac via firewire. This way if you only want 10 seconds of video, it will only take 10 seconds to capture it!

 

Its the most practical way of doing in, I read a few post where users just want a few second, but have to rip the entire DVD.
