It is not a immediate process importing a DVD into iMovie.Basically with DVD video we get files namely VOB (video object files). The key then is simply getting the VOB file into a format iMovie will recognize. To my best knowledge, iMovie only reads a few file formats like MPEG-4 (MP4, M4V), MPEG-2, DV, HDV, MOV etc.In order to import DVD movie into iMovie, you need to convert DVD to iMovie supported format first.
