Do I have to convert it somehow into an .MOV before I can do this? Or is there some way to access either an external DVD player or the native OSX player? Sorry if this has already been covered... I searched. Really, I did!

I know how to extract .avi from a dvd, but then perhaps everyone does! Let me know if you want the details
