    I use a Mac G4 dual 1.25gz. How can I take a 90 second except from a DVD and turn it into a quicktime file that can be made part of a Powerpoint presentation?

    rip the dvd to HD using MTR
    Process the non encrypted MTR output to MPEGStreamClip
    in MPEGStreamClip, edit and save your clip out as a QT movie.
    Import into PowerPoint.

    Dont rip the whole DVD with MTR, just rip the chapter containing your 90 second clip.

    Ant, what about Dummy Vobs?
    If he gets a warning about " This DVD was padded with Dummy Vobs"
    shouldn't he/she HAVE to rip the whole movie at that point just
    to be sure....
    hate to have ripped the chapter, only to find a dummy vob
    was set in the middle of it, and then you couldn't have the
    whole chapter without some creative stitching...right?

    No. Actual video content is never encoded into a dummy vob.
