Video editing: "Auto video ripper" for VLab Motion
With "Auto video ripper" you can automatically export a video source as MPEG or DivX file.

To do so, you enter the length of the original video, open Movieshop and start a project as well as your video device. You can change the bit rate, the image size and the output format. There's no sound export as the author doesn't own a Toccata sound card.
