Then there is the issue of conversion. Is there one program that does it all? I just want to be able to replay the webinars at my leisure. If I don't have to convert, that's fine with me.

I can't move movies or other big files (over 4GB) and some movies with .mkv format to my WD my passport 1TB.

My HD format is FAT32. I found out that this format doesnt allow to transport file over 4GB. also found out about exFAT format, but i don't really understand it.

Please help me to find the solution
1. Can someone give me advice? Should I reformat my HD to exFAT?
I need my HD to be flexible(available to write and read) on both mac and windows. Also I kept many movies sized over 4GB.

2. How about the .mkv movie files?

I am trying to translate videoclips from a Hard Disk to my macmini.

I created three videos (slideshows with soundtrack). Two of them are on "autostart", the third has a menu which keep repeating, much like a conventional DVD, until the viewer presses "play" on the DVD player. If I attempt to view the video on my computer it is not possible, that I have found, to start the video; it simply keep re-running the intro. How can I remove that intro so it will begin playing? ]]> Movies and Video GMRMSx32767 http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=298588 http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=298553&goto=newpost Wed, 01 May 2013 21:10:59 GMT Hello,

First off, please forgive my ignorance, I'm relatively new here.
I'm trying to transfer my home movies to my iMac to edit a movie for my niece's graduation. I used a VHS to DVD conversion deck (I have VHS, miniDV, 8mm's). I read that i needed to copy the VTS .VOB files from the DVD to my computer. It worked on one of the DVD's I made. I keep getting an error message "The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “VTS_01_1.VOB” can’t be read or written.
(Error code -36)". I don't think I did anything different during the transfer on each DVD so I can't figure out what went wrong.
I was able to use HandBrake to transfer the .VOB file to mp4 on the first (good) DVD. I'm not able to use Handbrake directly from the DVD.
I also tried to use old software I bought a few years ago (iSkySoft DVD ripper) but it won't work there, either.
I'm going crazy because I only have a few weeks to get this thing finished.
Any help (step by step, in non-geek English--Remember, I'm new! ) :Blushing: will be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
