Meteor 2- How do you transfer video and what cabes go where

[g4ssss]

I'm sill having a hard time getting this new editor set up.
Most of my video is sent on dvd discs. How would I transfer video from a dvd player to the Meteor 2. What cable goes where?
If anybody has experience with this editor, I would really appreciate your feedback.

Thanks, Gary

Hi Gary I think the only way you could Hook up to the media would be using the analog to USB converter that macro system selves I believe it’s $159 with the software code you can look at Joel Brooks instructional video that’s on YouTube online

That depends on what you want to do

• Simply make a copy of the DVD Install the free ImgBurn software to store an 1:1 image of the DVD or Blu-ray. You can burn this image 1:1 on disc any time without any quality change or loss of menu.
• Want the movie decoded from the DVD back into the Bogart Edit menu DVD into Meteor², go to import, select the DVD drive and select the VTS_01_1, VTS_01_2, VTS_01_3... (not the _0) with the import setting "combine files to one scene". The second film would be VTS_02_1, VTS_02_2,... and should be imported separately.

No need to use any cables and loose more quality

With the Meteor, Why not consider having them send you files through Drop Box or any other similar cloud based program? You're losing a LOT of quality ripping from a DVD. We also strongly recommend Wondershare Uni Converter (NOT the free version!), It's a great inexpensive software and maintains quality the best that we've found.
