[MacDV] Re: Getting mpeg files from DVD

Thanks to Erica:

"You can buy the MPEG playback codec from apple."

and to Mark:

"Apple's $20 MPEG-2 playback component will allow MPEG-2 playback from
Mac OS 9 or 0S X (but you'll have to pay separately for each OS).  If
you're on OS X, you can also try a free MPEG-2 player like VLC:

VLC will allow simple playback, but none of the other cool things that
QuickTime allows, like converting to a different QuickTime format
(codec)."

I'm on my way .....
