ok, so i have sony handycam (DCR-DVD108) that records onto min-dvds. and i have a Mac OS X. does anyone have a free software download link that converts .vob files into another format that i can load into iMovie? i found a couple through google but they all have missing extensions and none have worked :mad:
any help would be great appreciated :thumbup:
 
You should also be able to download the video using iMovie through the firewire cable.

thanks guys. the handbrake wouldn't function until i downloaded VLC (?). then it kept asking me to download it even after i did, restarted, etc, and it wouldn't go any further in the converting process. ugh :mad:

Man I hate OSX. :D

Fortunately most Apple computer have no trouble running Windows, either through an emulator or as a dual-boot setup. Get XP set up on your Apple and you should have no trouble running the proper software for your camera.

I'm surprised the Sony camera software doesn't work on your Mac. I received two digital cameras recently from two separate companies, and each one contains software for both Mac and Windows. :confused:
 
Once again, I marvel at the collective knowledge available at BF, and the willingness of members to help out.

Well done! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
