Hi, Just randomly came across this rather 'basic' carnival, I have a feeling health and safety haven't been round yet to inspect it lol >>>>home made carnival<<<< apologies if this has already been posted before, did a search but couldn't find it anywhere

If it is going to be a 20-acre island, perhaps it will include the larger car park, as the one above could be what they refer to as the "park support" area. I'm not sure exactly what 20 acres looks like but i'm guessing it's about that size. 20 acres?

Ok i'll guess your somewhere by Mojave Airport? because I think thats where the old fleet of TWA planes are standing. I also think they make some films/tv shows there, so perhaps you have been invited to along to watch something get made? I have no idea about any of the other clues lol

Robb - Thanks for the help i've been able to use DVDShrink to rip the video track I wanted, as you say it's in a .vob file so if nothing else I can reburn it onto a dvd as a separate vid. I have tried a couple of vob-avi converters but so far it's not looking good, quality isn't so great and the sound is lost. I'll keep trying, I may have some settings wrong. Will - thanks for the info but i've tried DVD Decrypter and it seems to rip whole sections of the dvd not just single chapters, so dvdshrink seems to work better for me. DanandJackie - I use Sudio9 already but as far as i'm aware you cannot capture a file from a dvd, only a DV device. If i'm wrong and you know of a way to do this please let me know as it would be the perfect solution. It's looking like the best way to re-edit the vid is to capture all the tapes again and start from scratch, not really what i want to do, but will end up with the best result Thanks again for your help cheers Rich

Hi Robb, I've recently made a video of my trip to Florida this year and burnt it to DVD, unfortunately I had what can be only described as a computer melt down and the only option was to format my hard drive. I've therefore now lost my 'edit' clips for Pinnacle Studio but I was hoping to redo some of the video without having to capture all 14 tapes again . Here's my problem: 1. How do you grab the video from the DVD to PC without losing any picture quality? 2. Is it then possible to import the video file into an editor again? if so what file format would I need to save it in? 3. if I cant re-edit it, can I just save a section of it to dvd? I'm hoping you'll be able to help as you seem to have plenty of experience with people sending you their coaster vids on different formats for the competition. cheers Rich
