Exporting parts of a DVD to Premiere Pro.

[Pablo Villegas]

Hi, does vob2pg supports selecting the part of the Vob to be converted?

Or what program can I use to select, let's say a minute from a DVD to be converted to MPG?

What I want to do is convert just some shots from a DVD to a video format that I can use in Premiere pro, hopefully one with no higher compression. DV-Avi would be magnificent!

Do you know how can I achive this?

I'm a cinematographer, And I just shot some MiniDv footage but I don't have a way to capture it to my PC because I don't own a MiniDv camera or recorder. So I will get the Original DVD, but I want to be able to edit some parts and Color correct them a bit. Can this be done? Or I'm better off renting a recorder for a day?

Thanks in advanced.

While you can get video off of a DVD back into Premiere, the quality just won't be as good as pulling it right off of your miniDV tape.

A firewire card and cable shouldn't cost you more than $50. Rent a miniDV player for a day. If you're a cinematographer, it's just a good investment.

Thanks, I do have the card and cable, I have edited some offline things here, but the MinDV players and cameras I've used were not mine. Yeah, I will have to rent or lend a miniDV player ot do that.

Thanks again.
