I see that MPEG Streamclip is being suggested as an alternative to this tool. I have not used either (but will try both, soon.)

Reviewers should please take more care. It is not correct to say that they are congruent. Cinematize claims to do something that MPEG Streamclip does not claim to do — receive video from a DVD. MPEG Streamclip only claims to receive MPEG files.

I have a need that is not only very specific, I would be very surprised if many others do not want to do the same thing. And I'm wondering if Cinematize will do it (based on the claims, anyway) whereas I'm sure MPEG Streamclip will not.

I have a disc-based video recorder attached to my television. I want to be able to move recorded material (it appears on the recorder's hard disc as a VIDEO_TS folder) to my computer for editing in, for example, iMovie, and subsequent burning to a DVD (again as a VIDEO_TS folder) for later playing on any DVD player in the normal way. I'm not interested in producing MPG files for playing in, for example, QuickTime Player.

Can anyone tell me if Cinematize or any other tool will do what I want? I've searched long and hard without success so far.

Read the ad, which says that it will work "even with protected DVD's".
Doesn't work, gives an error message. Of course, all DVD's in the last 10 years are protected. Don't buy, doesn't work
