knife and says 'that's not a knife', and shows him his huge australian
knife, and says 'now this is a knife'

Hello -

Do you have a DVD player?  Are you using a PC, or a Macintosh?

Thanks,

Also, what operating system?  Thanks.

Hi richlf,
I just came across this forum and I am sure that there are more ways
to do this than any one person knows.  I can think of one way that I
would try.  Go to a video rental place, rent the movie, play it
through a CD player or VHS player to a TV set and take a picture of
the 'clip' with a digital cam-corder.  That may be the most
economical.  Or you may take the movie to a specialty shop and then
you 'may' get a better clip.
I saw that movie also and that scene could be the most memorable.

i totally agree i'm just looking for someone to help with the work of
doing all that, or if someone has already digitized it

You'll need to clarify how you intend to play the clip, the
specifications of the device that will be playing the clip, and any
requirements for video quality and file size. This will determine the
pixel height/width, codec and codec parameters to be used in the
creation of your clip. For example, clips created for PocketPC,
low-end PC, high-end PC, Macintosh, distribution to known devices,
distribution to unknown devices... are all situations that will
require the clip to be created differently.
