I am using EMC9 with Windows XP on a Dell XPS400 machine.  I have DVD copies of my son's high school football games.  My goal is to edit out his clips to make him a "highlight video".

So most of the time everything works great.  But I do have some issues getting the video files into EMC9.

Most of them, I just drag and copy them from the DVD into my hard drive.  They are .vob files and for some reason my EMC9 won't work with those, so I just rename them .mpg and that works.  But for some of them, it doesn't work.  After I change the name to mpg it must corrupt it or something because it will not drag into videowave using media selector.  The ones that do not work is not an entire disk.  For all of them they are divided into chapters and maybe 3 of the 4 chapters work great and one of them will not.

So, then I go to use the media import function.  It reconizes the DVD, but it doesn't list the chapters and the "import now" is not active (it is not lit up where I can click on it).  The reason I did not start with this option to begin with is because of this problem.

So my question is this:  how do I get these files into EMC9  Videowave?

You will need to copy the VIDEO_TS folder and its' contents to your HD for Import to work! (it shouldn't be that way, but it is…)

That worked!  Thanks!
