Extracting a clip from a DVD

This tutorial will show you how to extract or take a clip from a DVD disc. You will need a DVD ROM on your computer and the Squared 5 software.
1. Put the DVD into your DVD ROM and open the drive, copy the video_ts folder from your DVD ROM onto your hard drive
2. Open Squared 5.
3. Load your video into squared 5 by selecting File->Open files. Select the video_ts folder where you've just copied it onto your hard drive from.
4. You will see several DVD files in that folder. Right click and view as details. Arrange it by the size. Select the file "VTS_01_1" If you have more then the same group of that for example: "VTS_01_2,VTS_01_3,VTS_01_4" Squared 5 will ask you whether you want to open all. Select open all to review the entire movie clip. It might ask to fix audio break points. Select Fix. Scrow through the video to find your clip that you want to convert to MPEG
5. If you want the entire video convert to MPEG, skip this step. Otherwise, select Edit->Select In. You have chosen the beginning of your clip. Now choose the ending of your clip by scrolling to the point where you want the clip to end and select Edit->Select Out.
6. Select File->Convert to MPEG. Choose a name and place you want to save your MPEG. Click Save.
7. Square 5 will now compress the video into the MPEG format. Once its completed, you'll be able to view it without the disc and it will be saved as a file.
