GENESIS2010  Have been using DVDxDV for two years now, version 1.09 on a pair of MacG5s; my experience is that if you have a DVD that is about 3GB full or less, it works fine. The app takes a long time to load the DVD. But if you have a 4GB, the problems abound! Additionally, if you have made your DVD from a videotape with some control track that is not continuous, the app fails on a number of fronts. For the past couple of days I've been trying to make a .mov file from one of four tracks on a DVD that I made from a VHS tape. The app does not recognize much of the track; just the last 20%. I've given up on DVDxDV! If only I could recover my lost time in past couple days!

**Also, many of the glowing reviews in here seem suspiciously bogus and shallow! Caveat Emptor!

MAC912374  FFmpeg says that DVDxDV is in violation of the GPL.

BLUESTAR  One of the worst UIs in the Universe. Slow & Buggy

DONNA A.  It works great and is very simple to use. I just select the DVD, make my export selections, and let it go while I'm working on other projects. It couldn't be easier. I've used the "regular" version for years and finally upgraded to the Pro version and am happy with it. When I sent a question to technical support I had a prompt reply.

NCIANCA  $80 bucks to basically change the file extension and fix time code breaks and still requires the MPEG-2 codec?

A .VOB file on a DVD is nothing more then an MPEG-2 file.

Assuming you have the Apple Quicktime MPEG-2 codec ($30 or included with Final Cut) all you have to do is copy the VOB file(s) to your drive, rename the file's extension to .MPG or .m2v and use MPEG Streamclip (free) to fix the timecode breaks and optionally convert it to any other format such as DV or H.264 or whatever.

MPEG Streamclip can also be used to split the video using in/out points so that you do not need to post process the entire file.

Note that this does not work with VOB files that are encrypted with CSS but works perfectly with any CSS free DVD.

NATHANIEL JOHNSTON  DVDxDVPro is an excellent application that is intuitive to operate and offers many options for the casual and professional user alike. In addition, I find their customer support to be quick and positive. I have been a satisfied customer for over 3 years now.

HYPERLINK  I've used DVDxDV and DVDxDV Pro for years and have co-workers who use it heavily, daily. I agree that MPEG Streamclip does most of the same things and more. One thing that Streamclip doesn't do is handle DVD's from DVD's from DVD Recorders well. There is a lengthy process where you have to "Fix Timecode Breaks". DVDxDV or the Pro version is much more efficient to work with if your DVD's come from stand-alone DVD Recorders. My main gripe is that DVDxDV and the pro version leave jaggies in areas of high color saturation and movement. Seems like some kind of interlacing artifact. MPEG Streamclip seems to handle the same footage with a more pleasing effect to me.

KATHYH  This program was exactly what I was looking for. It's a simple, easy to use program to extract clips from burned DVDs. I am creating a tribute video for a basketball team and need to break down the game DVDs from the coach into highlight clips for each senior and this program does it with ease. I can precisely cut the clips I want, name them and save them as Quicktime files that will import into either I-Movie or Final Cut for me to create my final product. I highly recommend it.

DANMARTIN  Fantastic program! And whenever I needed info from

Tech Support, precise information was ALWAYS given in record time.

I strongly recommend it.

PUTCHFILMS  Fantastic! Brad Wright has done it again! Great great tool for simply getting your DVD material back to QT for editing. I use it all the time and paid for the pro upgrade.
