YouAreTV's FAQ item re: converting DVD footage for web

I visited the YouAreTV website yesterday. YouAreTV looks like a more indie film focused version of YouTube. While exploring the site I found a possibly very useful item on their FAQ page: info. on converting footage on a DVD to a format that can be uploaded to the web, to
YouAreTV or the several other places that carry video clips. Go here & scroll down to "How do I get footage from a DVD, and convert it?".

They recommend using a program called AutoGK, their link did not work for me, so here's the AutoGK link if anyone needs it.

I have not tried it yet, but I have been on the lookout for this type of info. for a while. Thanks YouAreTV.

If anyone else has info on converting DVD footage for web upload, let us know, use the comments field below.

Of course it goes without saying: don't use the tools to violate copyright, just to upload your own stuff/stuff you created or stuff you own the distribution rights to.

Thanks!

Let's take a closer look at Mike Tully's negative review of IFBRT & see if we can clarify some things

Mike Tully (presently inactive filmmaker who is not a fan of shooting on DV, who is now running things - as far as I know - at the review site Hammer to Nail, who also blogs at indieWIRE, & who wrote a brief & positive review of Date Number One in '06, & a fellow Marylander who generally seems like a cool dude) attended the World Premiere of Indie Film Blogger Road Trip and wrote a review of the doc . There are several items in that review that I'd like to comment on. So here we go: "At its best, Sujewa Ekanayake’s Indie Film Blogger Road Trip is certain to go down as one of the more bizarre time capsules of life on early-21st Century Earth." Cool - life on Earth in early 21st century - right now - is pretty bizarre, so a film dealing with a new, early-21st Century thing like film blogging/a film blogging community, should reflect that reality. The doc, however, is very simple & conventional in its form & content (shots of people talking). It is i

This is no way to write a movie review

Cynthia Rockwell's "review" of Hannah Takes The Stairs is depressing not because she didn't like the movie but because after reading the entire thing, 6 small to medium sized paragraphs, I can't figure out the following: the plot of the movie or the situation or roughly what happens for 70 - 90 minutes, the main characters & any significant minor characters, who plays the characters, ideas that may have been expressed in the movie, similar ideas and situations that may have been explored in other movies or other art/entertainment and how those compare with the film being reviewed, the reviewer's opinion of the technical craftsmanship of the movie, how real life compares to the world being depicted in the movie. At the very least I would like to learn a few of those things about a movie from a review. (and yes, Rockwell does consider her post re: Hannah a review, as noted here , not just a blog entry reflecting on the lack of female participation in indie
