Mac assistance needed please

[littleheaven70.livejournal.com]

My husband has just become a Mac owner, and therefore needs to find new ways of handling his vidding files.

On his PC, he just ripped raw vob files with SmartRipper and used them directly in Vegas. He also ran AnyDVD to region crack the DVD drive, as we have both region 4 and region 1 DVDs.

Question 1 - is there a region crack for Macs?

Question 2 - for anyone here that uses Final Cut or Final Cut Express... what do you use to rip and encode your source?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

MactheRipper is my ripper of choice. It can handle multiple regions okay. It'll just rip you straight VOB. Final Cut can handle that.

Thanks, I've downloaded that one! Hopefully it'll sort out all his issues :o)
