Converting a dvd movie into a video file such as avi,wmv. This all depends on the length of dvd. If only short and under 10Meg in filesize then you probably will be able to email it , but remember it will take sometime to download on slower internet connection.

Maybe it would be easier just to snail mail a copy of the dvd?

You'll need a ripper/converter. Lots of free ones about, such as this one.

Why aren't you sure of the length of the DVD?

Anyway, you'll need a DVD ripper, such as the one shown above, or; http://www.magicdvdripper.com/dvd-ripper.htm

You can use the utility to compress the video to MPEG1, MPEG2 or MPEG4(DivX/XviD) to make the file smaller and therefore quicker to upload.

Check your PMs for more info.
