[vlc] video conversion HELP!

[Erin Socall]

Hey there -

I have been working on converting/editing some video footage I have but I am
a complete rube.  I have no idea what I am doing and I am also having a hard
time following text instructions.  Basically what I need is to convert a DVD
to an avi then be able to edit it.  How do I do this exactly (layman's terms
pretend I am even more stupid than right now) using VLC for Ubuntu?  My
deadline is tonight at midnight.

Please please please help me!

Fond and committed user of VLC;

Erin
