Normally I would suggest sending the DVD to me, but my computer is dead and I can't do diddly right now. I'm using an older computer that can't handle doing video, not in any reasonable time frame anyway. I'll get my computer fixed, but not until after the first of the year.

Maybe someone else on here that knows how to put them on Youtube will step in and help.

Is this something that requires ripping a DVD?

If so I haven't found a simple way to rip DVDs. =/

Rick, what about the thread where you showed how to upload stuff. Do you still have the webpage up?

I don't remember the thread title it was in.

Yeah, but Nora uses a Mac, those instructions won't help her out much.

Do you know how to decrypt to a Mac? I don't know squat about Apple.

Nope. I have almost zero experience with those.

This may be a solution, but I cannot say for sure since I don't have a Mac anymore:

You need a software like DVD Shrink to extract the video files to VOB files. Then another software to rip them to a smaller size file (AVI) - or - just use a software that will rip them from DVD directly to an AVI file. This process is similar to ripping a CD to an MP3. The one i use is AoA DVD ripper http://www.aoamedia.com/dvd_ripper.htm. Once they are converted or ripped, you can upload them to YouTube which then will be automatically converted to Flash. Depending on the length of your DVD, you might want to split the clips into 8-10 mins long.

If you want you can upload your DVD to my SkyDrive and i will take it from there: https://cid-a96c558e82733802.skydrive.l ... aspx/Media
