Hi,
I received a dvd which our meditation centre watches.

Only someone has to bring in their computer and set it up as the dvd has real player .smi files.

I want to capture the stream from the dvd and then covert to mpeg.

I tried saving the real player file to my comp (by using realplayer save file option) to convert it but it saves as an empty folder !
Even looking for "all files" it seems empty.

If i check the properties it says there is 300mb in the folder but i can't convert what my Xilisoft program or
Nero can't see.

So i thought i could capture then convert so we can watch the mpeg on the dvd player.

The dvd is my only source.

Is there a .smi capture program that can source from dvd or is there another way of going about it?

thanks,
stable.
