I have non copyrighted DVD that I need to convert to MOV files. I have
the newest version of sorenson squeeze 4. The problem is that it can't
inport from a DVD.

So I need software to move it to a format that I can then use sorenson
to convert to MOV. I want something with the BEST possible quality.
The size of the file is not important. I have tried to rip to AVI but
haven't found one that does a good uncompressed. There is always
aliasing or the sound doesn't work.

The most important thing is the quality of the images. I want to lose
as little quality as possible. This is going to eventually be posted
on our website. I know there is going to be a huge loss in quality in
mov but I would like as good color fidelity and lack of aliasing or
artifcats. The site is geared towards broadband connections.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Check out:

This excellent software rips dvds to high-quality mpeg format which
sorenson can convert easily.  The image quality of the mpeg is
near-perfect.

There is a free trial version on this site too.

Enjoy!

i'll recommand you go get tmpgenc it's a free enocoder for your
DVD/VOB files the mpeg 2 plug in is trial for 30 days tho

Just input your VOB file and convert it to Mpeg1 or mpeg2

Another altenative is using the Divx Codec  go to www.divx.com 
download divx pro codec

Then go get this program called virtual dub this will process your
VOB/mpeg2 to AVI but this Avi won't have dropped frames because it's
using the Divx compress which is pretty good
