idvd and ripping dvds

[gillomax]

Hi there..

I really hope someone can help me with this!?
I work on a mac and I am currently using idvd to
make up a dvd with slideshows, movies and text for the
company I work for. They gave me two dvds and they
want me to include these in the one I'm making.. basically I
can't figure out how to do this..

I took the audio & video folders off the dvds I was given..
containing the vob, ifo and bup files which make up the dvd
I need to add to the project but they obviously won't transfer
into idvd..

Does anyone know how to convert them into what they need to
be or know how I can go about this at all?? As in any suggestions?

Thanks!!

mpeg-streamclip. Load the VOBs, output MPG files. Hopefully iDVD can handle mpeg files, given DVDs are encoded as mpeg-2.

I'll try this! Thanks!

iDVD cannot accept MPEG 2 video files. If you use Streamclip to export as DV then you can add to iDVD.
