I'm editing all of the video I took at Christmas and am trying to add in clips from DVD movies that I have; "Elf", "Christmas Vacation", etc. Yes they are back-ups and are decrypted.
The problem is that I have to import large portions (1GB+) of the movie and then edit it down to the small portion that I want using Vegas MS.

Is there any other programs that can capture this video or is using vegas the best way for me to go?

Thanks.

I found a trial version of Easy DVD Rip on download.com. It's $35 after the free trial is up. If anyone knows of any other free DVD ripping software that can rip to mpeg, avi, etc., let me know thanks.
