  1. I have a huge horror collection and just for fun I'd like to make a compilation video (avi or mpg) of my favorite DEATH SCENES.

    Any tips on how I would do that?

    Is there a good program out there that I can use to capture just like.. 30 seconds of video from a dvd and save it as a mpg?

    DVDShrink in reauthor mode and using the start/end feature is probably going to be the quickest and easiest IMO, short of reconverting back to MPEG-2 then using VideoRedo or MPEG-VCR.
    If in doubt, Google it.

  3. hmm i never thought of that.. that's a good idea but doesn't it save it as a "VOB" file, not a mpg?

    Yes. You can then import the VOB straight into any decent authoring package, or demux it into elementary streams if required. I just think it's the easiest interface, that's all


    EDIT:
    Rereading the question (now THERE'S a novel approach ), I think either I misunderstood, or got your question before you edited it.

    From what I read now, you just want to keep this on the computer as an AVI or MPEG file ?

    There's quite a few ways to do this:

    If in doubt, Google it.

    authoring - programs here

    demux (demultiplex) - guide here

    elementary streams


    I'd suggest you hop to it, and do some reading and searching

    The guides section is a good place to start, then What is DVD, the FAQ and possibly acquainting yourself with the glossary wouldn't hurt either
    If in doubt, Google it.
