It looks to see if you have a superdrive before it will start. > However, I now desire to extract some clips from a DVD that I am playing so > that I can use them on my website - it is all legal :-), and I suspect that > I can do this with iDVD. > No, iDVD is creation software, rather than pulling clips from DVDs already created. If you are looking at saving clips from legal DVDs, then maybe you can hook up your DVD player to a DV camera that has analogue playthrough, or an analogue to DV converter box. Then you can capture the clips via iMovie. I'm sure there is software on the net that can extract footage from DVDs, but due to their dubious nature I can't tell you what they are :-) Seeya Rod!
