How to edit DVD files without any DVD capture / DVD to Video File converter software!
So many times you had a DVD that you needed to make some changes to, however you think that you can’t. So you have wondered, how can I import that file lets say into Premier or Movie Maker and edit it?
Well there are many applications have been developed, that so called “capture DVD” and transfer then to AVI, WMV, MOV, etc. Guess what, you have to pay for them and in reality you don’t need them!
Well, the answer is simple!
The actual video files on DVD have file extension VOB. In reality all it is: mpeg2 encoded video file.
Now to edit that file all you need to do is:
1) Re-name VOB file extension as mpg. Now you have a regular mpg (or mpeg) video file.
2) Now you can import that file and edit it. Most of the video editing software packages will support it (well there are cases then they don’t...but that is another topic)
3) Re-edit the footage
4) Transcode to DVD / Burn DVD
5) You are done!
No extra software solutions are required! Most of them simply try to cash in on non tech customers!
