I am trying to figure out how to take a copy (not the original protected copy) of a DVD movie and edit it. I would like to create a small film clip of the original version. This is a presentation that we are trying to put together for ART GOES TO SCHOOL. The PBS/Nature DVD "A Conversation with Koko" is a great film about Koko who communicates via American Sign Language. She can sign 1000 words and understands 2000 works. She can also paint and does photography. In fact she has been rank one of the tp 40 professional photographers by National Geographics. Any way we have tried Cinamagic and Moviemaker and have not had any success. Does anyone know what we can do?
