DVD Player in Lion

In DVD Player in Snow Leopard, I used to be able to create video clips (that is, short sections of DVDs to play for my students in school). DVD Player in Lion does not seem to offer that feature. Bookmarks are not good enough for my purposes, because I want the clips I choose to stop automatically at the places I have previously chosen. Ideally, I would like the 'create a video clip' feature to be returned to DVD Player in Lion, but if that is not possible, does anyone know whether it is possible to reinstall DVD Player from my Snow Leopard discs? If that is not possible, does anyone know of any free software that will enable me to play a DVD (for example, King Kong), make a video clip (for example, the opening credits and first few minutes of the film), and then play back the clip? Thank you!

Yes, I can confirm this, also that DVD Player on my Mac Mini has horrible mouse interaction in terms of control, if I fast forward there is no telling hard far or how long the video will go for.

This is or should be unacceptable from Apple, when I pay for a software upgrade I expect to gain features and performance, not lose them, especially at Apple prices ( thought Lion was cheap, it is also problematic)
