Looping a section of a DVD

October 4th, 2008 | by jg3 |

My contribution to ACF is small this year, but practical:

  1. Play the DVD from which you wish to create a loop using DVD Player application in OS X.
  2. At the starting point of your loop, select Controls > New Video Clip  (Fig. 1)
  3. This action opens the New Video Clip dialogue with the starting point you selected marked as the beginning; the video is paused (Fig. 2)
  4. Set the clip name and press play (Fig. 3)
  5. When the endpoint of your loop arrives, click the Set button to mark the end of your loop (Fig. 4)
  6. Now be sure to click save or your effort will be wasted (Fig. 5)
  7. Now select Go > Video Clips (Fig. 6)
  8. Double clicking your clip from the Video Clips menu starts playing the given clip (Fig. 7)
  9. To make it loop select Go > Video Clips > Repeat Clip (Fig. 8)
  10. Enjoy chilled or over ice.
