DVD to digital, how to?
I am cleaning up my studio a bit and I came across a DVD my son did of one of my band's practice sessions. I suspect I can get this into my DAW pc as I have Sony Vegas and google tells me I can open the VTS-01-0.IFO file with Vegas, maybe so, but I don't have much HD space left immediately available on this pc. I would prefer putting this onto my newer family pc. My goal is (right now) to get the audio off of the DVD. Does anyone know how to do this? Move my DVD onto my family pc e.g. movie maker and then get the audio off? Secondly, has anyone ever gotten the movie plus audio from a DVD into Vegas? Much appreciated.

You need to import a VOB file into Vegas. I don't think you can do that with File | Open you have to drag the file from the DVD into Vegas. I just tried it with a homemade DVD and it opened fine in Vegas, both video and audio tracks.
Failing that you could try using a DVD ripper like Handbrake (free) to convert the DVD to an mp4 file.

Thanks Bjorn! I will do that and see how it goes, as I mentioned there was enough online via google to say it would work but I've been too busy with other projects to give it a try. Come Monday (isn't that a song...it'll be all right, I'll be holding you tight...something about brown LA haze...), I've got a chance to give her a go. Incidentally, are you Scandinavian? My wife is from Norway and my family (Kjonaas = Tsonaas) is from Telemark. Thanks again :)

Många gånger. It's a good thing most Swedes speak English since my Swedish is pretty bad anymore.

My wife, tho from Kristiansand, has a 1st and last name that is Swedish, since both her great grandparents on both sides come from Sweden. She asks: Hvor I Sverige kommer du fra?

Note that VOB files are essentially mpeg2 format with a bit of extra information so even if your software doesn't recognize them, you can sometimes fool it by simply renaming it with an MPG extention. AMB

Thanks AMB What I actually did and it worked well, was simply place the DVD in the pc, bring up Vegas, and File / Import DVD Camcorder Disc. It worked like a charm and now I have a lot of old practice band tapes which came out really good and a memorandum since my keyboard player Tommy is dead, and my bass and one of my drummers have left Madison for the Rez up North.
