You COPY the folders, from the disc, to a folder on your hard drive. You can then open VideoWave (Edit Video-Advanced) and bring in those files for editing.

grandpabruce Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Thanks for reply in capture it won't let me copy it to any folder. You don't use Capture for anything. You copy the files, from your DVD, just like you would copy any file, from one place on your computer, to another. You use My Computer to do it.

grandpabruce Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Igot it i have to copy from a ts file then it works thaks Steve Yes, you get them from the Video_TS folder. You can't drag them to Storyline or Timeline. Click on one of the .vobs, click on Open, and you should get a box asking which ones you want brought in. Also, before you bring in any files, click on File/New Production, and pick whether you want 4:3 or 16:9. I believe the default setting is 4:3.
