I'm mentally disabled when it comes to computers and need help. I compete in mma and have some of my old fights on burned dvd's. I wanted to put them on my comp so I could edit them into some sort of collage. Basicly what I did was I threw the DVDs in the burner and just copied and pasted the contents onto my desktop. Now I have run into a problem. I want to edit them on windows movie maker but can't seem to import the files because the guy who made the dvd I assume used a different program so it's not loading the files. Windows media player will load the videos but I can't edit them from there. Anyone know a way where I can change the format of the dvd videos or somehow be able to edit them. Please help it's kinda of an emergency

Please and Thank You

Try googling for instructions or maybe try and find a video editing or computer forum?

MMA= Mixed Martial Arts..... if you have heard of the UFC it's exactly like that, except I don't get paid as much LOL
 
It will depend on what format the files were created in, what format they were burned to (playable in a standard dvd player or not, burned as raw data or converted to video-dvd), and what format they show up when you view them through 'my computer'. Most formats won't allow you to pull video directly from movie-dvd's and then edit, play, or do anything with them. Kinda defeats the purpose of copy-protection on retail dvd's. Yours (being home-made, I assume) will be a little different though, won't have the copy-protection and such. You will probably still need a decoder to pull the video data from the dvd. I hear *cough cough* that dvd decrypter (found here) is great at doing such tasks, even for retail videos. Windows movie maker is a pansy for video editing, but real programs to do such tasks usually cost some $$.

If movie maker picks it up, great. If not, you could try Nero (a cd/dvd writing software) package that includes a video editing program. I've not used it myself, so I can't comment on effectiveness. You can find it here.

I can't comment on trying to find expensive video-editing software for cheap / free, but I'm sure google could assist with a search similar to "download + video editing software"
