Hi. I'm hoping that someone will give me a starting point in this whole matter.
I want to splice together music videos. I have CDs of music. I have DVDs of video. They are all copyrighted material that I have no business messing around in, but I have these videos in my head and I crave the chance to make them. I haven't found any freeware that will rip a video off a DVD because of some encoding on it (can't blame them...) so I'm looking for some people to name some reliable programs for such purposes. I'd actually prefer something that I can go buy in a store rather than download. After that, I'll need an editor. The one I managed to get working would only play audio and I had to blindly guess at the visual cuts based on the sound. Imagine how well that worked out...
Someone help so I can stop picturing crap from shows and movies when I listen to my ipod.
