DVDxDV Pro4.0

The best and fast service in town. Sent me an update in few minutes and found a solution to one problem I had. Now all is ok. ;-))

With any purchased software it ultimately comes down to support. I have had nothing but responsive, competent and professional support. It is because of the support which will hold me as a customer.

This program is good for people lacking general tech and codec knowledge; the interface is fairly simple, and in many scenarios will work fine. However, I would spend the time to learn how to use MPEG Streamclip as it can do everything this program does (batch exports, exporting user-set regions, etc.) and more (more output options, demuxing, etc.) at much better quality, and for free. My main reason for abandoning this product is the terrible way it handles deinterlacing: on several PAL sources, after fiddling with every setting possible, the resulting quicktimes were terrible quality: effectively the program was throwing out half of the resolution. I would like to recommend this program because of the simple interface, but on too many occasions I've been burned and gone back to MPEG Streamclip to do it right.

DVDxDV PRO does what it says and does it better then anyone else. I have used it for years. Their support team are really nice and fast at fixing issues i've had over the years. Footage i have captured with DVDxDV Pro just works with FCP and footage have even been used for TV Broadcast. I can't praise it enough.

Nice software that works an efficient and fast support

First did a trial version of DVDxDV and the trial extraction worked well. Decided to spend a little bit more money and download the Pro Version from the Mac App store. The first video extraction completed without incident but the encoding held up for some reason or another. So here comes the good part. I email Technical Support from the help menu and got an immediate reply. Before I knew it I was on iChat screen sharing with Tech Support and the problem was immediately resolved. DVDxDV support even checked back 30 minutes later to make sure I was able to download to iTunes. Now I am off and running . . . great product and even better support. Thanks DVDxDV!

Buzzclik reviewed on 27 Feb 2011 I like this software, easy to learn too! I transferred old VHS to DVD-R then needed software to rip that for re-editing and output to YouTube. This is it! Now finding crazy old stuff. That was the older 2. ver. 3.3.5 is a good improvement to an already good application.

I love this program. I have had it for a couple of years now and have had no problems at all with it.

I use the regular version and the Pro version everyday. Easy to use and creates excellent video.

I use to use Handbrake and MPEGStreamclip for converting DVDs. The quality from Handbrake was terrible and MPEGStreamclip was just too difficult to use and buggy. I switched to using DVDxDV Pro. I found the interface in DVDxDV Pro much easier to use. It lets me preview the DVD instantly. I can zoom in on the timeline and find any part of the DVD that I want. The quality is excellent, as well as, the service and support. I highly recommend this product!

DVDxDV Pro is easy to use, and the expandable timeline lets me get to the exact spot on the DVD that I need. I can drop the output file straight into Final Cut Pro and of great quality. Working as a professional editor, I need a quick and reliable product with great support. DVDxDV Pro is the kind of product that you know will get the job done.

I've worked as a video professional for many years and I've tested many different DVD conversion products. Most don't measure up because they can't produce video that is even close to the original DVD. DVDxDV Pro is the exception. It is an outstanding product with amazing video quality. I would recommend this product to anyone. The support team is fast and really cares.

Simple and easy to use, this product delivers amazing video.

Love the tool and it hasn't failed me yet. As I mentioned to the trolls below there is no other tool like it. Not a single other tool has been able to recover video from my vast library when the disc was damaged. The beauty of it is this tool can be taken for a test drive before you buy it unlike other tools which force you to pay for it and then you find out the hard way you've been ripped off because they don't work. Maybe if the trolls below had the slightest clue what a tool of this nature should even look like and upgrade his 13 inch monitor to something a little more realistic he'd realize there's nothing wrong about the GUI. Don't bother replying trolls. I have more interesting things to scrap off my shoes than your idiotic replies.

FFmpeg says that DVDxDV is in violation of the GPL. http://roundup.ffmpeg.org/roundup/ffmpeg/issue1105

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.

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.

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.

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.

Fantastic program! And whenever I needed info from Tech Support, precise information was ALWAYS given in record time. I strongly recommend it.

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.

Excellent tool of it's kind for video conversion with some very useful options. For those that scoff at the price, there is a lighter version which is cheaper, but you get what you pay for then, less options & control! Works for me with 10.4.6 and various outputs to QuickTime flavours.

$80 - hohohohoho hehehehe hahaha!!!!!!!!!

$80?! That's a good one!

HandBrake 0.7b2 does a better job for free

I'd shoot myself before dropping $80.00 for this. $29.99 and now were talking. This is an attempt to rip off the Mac community. Please do not be a sucker folks!!!

$80.00? But the program that created the iDVD in the first place was only $49.00 and it came with iTunes, iPhoto, IMovie and iDVD. Is it me, or is there something odd about doubling the fee and giving us only one thing it can do? Obviously, the source material that made the iDVD in the first place should have been backed up as a single file (data burn), or simply bounced back to the CamCorder that made it in the first place. Who is not doing this? Why would you NOT do this?? It takes just seconds to burn a copy of the raw footage file as an image file, and that IS free. When I think of all the programs I get from MacUpdate.com and what some of them do to make life easier - normally shareware for around $10.00 max - this seems to be way over priced. I know for years it's fashionable to rip off MAC users by adding the owrd "PRO" to the title and charge 5 times what the PC users pay for the same thing, but this price tag is a bit over the top, don't you think?? I think you are just begging for someone to put this on Limewire if you ask my opinion.

Updates and update notifications are now being successfully received thrugh mac.com.

Apparently the Emails were somehow being blocked. Successfully was sent an update URL, and will now rate based on the software.

Some time ago I purchased an $80 license for this program. No information on upgrades. The upgrades listed on MacUpdate or VersionTracker link only to demo versions of the program which cannot be registered. I have over the last 4 weeks sent six emails to the developers asking for info on obtaining the intermediate upgrades to which I should be entitled. Not a single response. What an incredible waste of money.
