how do you rip clips from a dvd to your pc?

I use this: http://www.magicdvdripper.com/ Go to "Free Download" and load it. Then you put the DVD in you want to Rip and Rip it.

Sorry to bump a toipic like this but does that program carry any viruses or can it affect your comp? (sorry im askin these questions but im a little cautious)

I having troble with this too! weird!But shocking!

When ripping DVDS to your computer you must first have:

1. DVD RIPPER / DVD PLAYER

2. DVD Ripping device

3. DVD DECODING device

Insert your DVD into the DVD drive, if it is a protected film, which most DVDS are. You must use your DVD decoder to decode this. You may find a DVD decoder by searching google. The most common of useage is DVD Shrink.

From here you must rip your DVD into VOBS.

Once the VOBS have been ripped, pick out the VOBS that contain the film, various VOBS will come into the folder, ignore the audio VOBS, you'll be needing the video VOBS.

Select these VOBS for your DVD RIPPER and rip them int AVI's for best quality, once the AVI's are rippped transfer them to Windows Movie Maker or your other editing program and your off, ready to edit.
