Kino is your easy route here. Getting the file bit from flash to usable is the horror. But the DVD version can be "played" through kino and then the desired section marked and extracted and then saved to an appropriate format.<br>

Hi folks,<br>
<br>
Need some help: I'm doing a presentation tomorrow, and it would<br>
be AWESOME if at a specific point I could show a brief video<br>
clip from The Princess Bride -- specifically, from 0:19 to<br>
0:27 of this YouTube link: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjuZiVrrJZ4" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjuZiVrrJZ4</a><br>
<br>
Buttercup: "What about the ROUS's?"<br>
Wesley: "Rodents of unusual size? I don't think they exist."<br>
ROUS: POUNCE!<br>
<br>
I own a copy of the film on DVD, but I've no idea how to extract<br>
just that bit, either from my DVD or from YouTube. Don't want<br>
to spend hours researching, since I'm in the midst of writing the<br>
final draft of my talk. Advice and/or pointers to explicit<br>
instructions would be greatly appreciated!<br>
<br>
(Note: clip will be played in Windows Media Player on my church's<br>
XP laptop, most likely. I can capture/edit on Linux, though.)<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
