I have on DVD, recodings of live shows I have put on and want to import the DVD to my new iMac, which I just got a couple of days ago.

The only software I have so far is what comes with the new iMacs.

Can I, using the exisitng software, import from a DVD? If so, what program do I use? I have a superdrive on the iMac.

I have had Macs before but never dealt much with video.

If I need additional software to import the DVD in order to edit it and burn it, what are some names I should consider?

Also, since my digital video camera is not here yet, the live shows I have had recorded have been done on VHS and digitized on someones PC and put on DVD, which I now want to import to my iMac. What do I need to import directly from VHS tapes? I don't have access to the guys camera and I sure don't want to buy a VHS since I have a Canon XL2 coming soon, but I do have lots of footage on VHS.

Thanks

Thanks. Wealth of information here. I love my new iMac and am looking forward to recording a live show. I have Presonus Firebox on order.
