Convert img files to MP4 for IPod use

Hi all,

Is it possible to convert a disk image created with iDVD (.img or NDIF file type) to an MP4 file so I can post it online or load it on an iPod/iPhone/iTouch?

Thanks in advance
Mike

Using Leopard and old iMovie HD 6.0

Dual 2GHz G5, Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Sure. It would be easier to go back to the source and do the conversions, but you can back into that result by using the free MPEG Streamclip (and Apple's MPEG2 plugin - $20) to break out the mpeg2 file from the related .vob files. Streamclip can do file conversions to mp4 and a variety of other formats. If you need to edit something, have Streamclip convert the file to DV Stream (.dv) so iMovie will be happy when you try to import.
