To update you on the progress, or almost lack there of:

ffxdean Modded an fao project fmv extractor used to extract the FFX-2 preview out of the Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix (NTSC-J) and now his extractor can extract the intro from that disc. He also modified that same program to work with the Kingdom Hearts(NTSC-U) disc and extract the ending (see thread). Finally, he says he finished the NTSC-U version of the extractor to extract everything, but never released it.
I tried to go back and see how he modified the fao project extract, but really to no avail... I hex edited the original file (KHFM2mov.exe from fao) and compared it to ffxdeans edit (KHFM2movMod.exe) as well as comparing it to his NTSC-U version and found the hex differences but could never make anything of them.
------------------
*~1st Difference~*
Offset:00003590
Original FE 56 18
NTSC-U Mod 73 3B 0D
FM-IntroMod 9E 5D 0B
------------------
*~2nd Difference~*
Offset:00003F70
Original 40 60 1A
NTSC-U Mod 80 A8 16
------------------
Obviously the first difference is the FMV location, but i don't know if those hex values refer to a header or an offset or what. And the second is the size of the disc (since it only occurs between the NTSC-J and NTSC-U edit), but yet again can't make any sense of them (converting those hex to decimal does not give the actual byte size of the discs like i hoped it would)
*~><~*
long story short, get a capture card if you want FMV material from Kingdom Hearts (NTSC-U) that isn't the ending, and from Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix (NTSC-J) that isn't the intro.
