What's the difference between the "Freaks and Geeks" dvd set and yearbook edition?
i plan on buying one of the dvd sets for my sister on her birthday since it's one of her favorite shows. i tried comparing the 2 but i can't really find the answers i'm looking for. all i now is the dvd set has 6 discs and the yearbook has 8 discs.
my questions are:
-what's in the original 6 discs? are they just the episodes?
-what does the extra 2 discs on the yearbook edition have exclusively?
-i don't mind spending extra for the yearbook but is it worth it?
That is the only difference I see too. I guess it is up to you wheather it is worth it or not.
* Have a Good Day *

How to edit DVD with Windows Movie Maker?
If you want to edit a DVD movie with Windows Movie Maker to build a new DVD, but you get frustrated with the DVD format, this guide may help you solve the problem.
Before you get started, it will be helpful if you learn something about the DVD, WMM.
General DVDs have CSS copy protection in MPEG-2 or VOB format.
(Windows) Windows Movie Maker supports WMV, AVI and MPG video files.
This guide includes two parts;
How to put DVD movie into Windows Movie Maker.
Tip: How to convert MSWMM file to other video formats.
Part1. How to put DVD movie into Windows Movie Maker
Step1. To put a DVD movie into Windows Movie Maker, you have to rip your DVD to WMV or AVI video first, and then you can load it into Windows Movie Maker. I'd prefer using Aimersoft DVD Ripper to do this. You can get this program at:http://www.1click-soft.com/dvd-ripper.html
Then install and run it, put your DVD disc into your DVD drive, click "Load DVD" to locate your DVD file and import it, or load it by clicking "Load File" to add DVD IFO file. (This DVD Ripper can rip copyright protected DVD movies, but you should remember that it's illegal rip DVD for any business purposes)
Step2. Select output format and subtitle
After you load the DVD files, click the format drop-down list to select "WMV, Windows Media Video (*.wmv)" or "AVI" Audio Video Interleaved (*.avi) as the output format. A regular DVD movie has multiple subtitles and audio tracks, and you can select the right one for you. If you just want a certain part of the DVD movie, you can click "trim" to cut the DVD movie. Just drag the timeline bar to set the start and end time, and then blue line will be the captured parts.
For advanced user, if you want to output higher quality video, click the "Settings" button to open the panel, here you can customize video bitrate, audio bitrate, resolution, framerate, etc. Higher bitrate will result in bigger file size.
Step3. Start to convert
After the above steps, you just need to click "Start" and wait for the conversion to be finished. It takes about 40 minutes to convert a common two hours DVD movie.
Step4. Edit DVD with Windows Movie Maker (optional)
Run Windows Movie Maker, in the "Movie Task" bar, click "Add Video" to browse your computer and located the converted files, and then you can start to make personal movies.
Tips: Many users may wonder how they can convert Windows Movie Maker file (*.MSWMM) to other video format. Actually, A *.MSWMM file is not a video file. It is a project file of Movie Maker (more like a record file). You have to open this file in Windows Movie Maker and save the movie to your computer: Go to Movie Tasks bar > Finish Movie > Save to my computer. After that you will have a WMV file which can be converted to another video format or burned to DVD.

How do you select the Original Release version of the Lion King on the Platinum Edition DVD?
I swear, if I have to listen to 'Morning Report' one more time, I will shoot myself. I just want to watch as close to the original as I can, and the DVD creators seem to have hidden the Original option, so my question is, WHERE THE HELL DO I SELECT THE ORIGINAL?!
It's not really hidden, but the default version is the "special edition".
To play the original, go to the Set Up menu and select "Film/Audio Options". Here they present the audio options grouped by release. There's "Special Edition" and "Original Theatrical". Select a sound option from the "Original Theatrical" section and start playing the film.
Alright, I guess it IS hidden. But it's all mapped out in the DVD booklet. The option is in the Set Up menu.
I hate added songs like "The Morning Report" in The Lion King and "Human Again" in Beauty and the Beast. Even Pocahontas has a version with an added song.
