Default editing video from a dvd

I just got some footage from my wedding video and it is on a DVD, on the disc I see the 2 folders - 1 audio ts and 1 video ts.

I will be using final cut pro for the mac or even Imovie/idvd, I just need to know how I can make the dvd ediotable, what should I convert it to?

Any help is greatly appreciated!


Thanks

Ideally, ask the videographer for the original tapes as the video would have gone through at least one phase of compression by the time it gets to you.

Not sure what apps you could use on a mac if I'm honest.

Cool. Try flaskMPEG to convert the video to DV AVI.
