[torypsx]

is there any program that will allow me to extract chapters only from a dvd? I have a dvd with music videos and i don't want to rip the whole damn thing.
thanx.

Hi torypsx,

Check out Smartripper. That should do the trick...

Hey, I will use #1 DVD Ripper to get each song in .mpg and use TMPGEnc DVD Author
to make my DVD collection songs , and convert them back to DVD to burn.
It works.

i can't figure out what's wrong...i use smart ripper to extract a chapter, it creates the vob file along with other files. how do i create an mpeg file from this?

Hi torypsx,

That, I'm afraid, I can't help you with as I've not had the need to do that.

That said, I have seen loads of similar questions asked in the forums so a search will / should help.

EDIT: On second thoughts, from somewhere deep in my subconscious, VirtualDubMod might do the trick. Or TMPGEnc Plus. But don't quote me... Only maybes.

I'll ask this just in case - why do you want it to an mpeg file(s)? If you're planning on doing any editing, then mpeg isn't the best option. AVI is better for editing and a tool like (but not limited to) DVD2AVI is worth checking out.

If you just want a whole load of mpegs of different music clips to re-author then mpeg should be fine.

Good luck.
