Thanks for the reply. I did manage to download it and play the video.
However, I am wondering if there is a way to somehow convert the video
to quicktime format so I can import it into iMovie or iDVD ?
You can get VLC to output separate audio and video streams in a format
that quicktime would understand. If you have QT Pro you can then combine
the audio and video and output it as a DV stream which iMovie would
understand, at a cost of about 6G/hour of video.
Or you can output them into something more useful and mux them together
and burn them all using free tools. Its complicated and time consuming.
You'll need a few tools and need to learn about how a video stream is
put together, the basics, to use the tools.
Or, buy/upgrade to Toast 7, its rather good about taking stuff like
you've got and making a watchable DVD from it, albeit without fancy
iMovie type eye candy.
