VS11+ - importing ISO files
How do I get my iso video files into Videostudio? I tried the import from folder, but when I click on the folder containing the iso video clip, the "OK" button turns grey and am unable to select. Tried the 'batch convert' option and it will not let me choose the file/folder either. Any suggestions?

No you can not import or insert an ISO file. It is not a "video file", but a complete copy of a DVD, which has much more than just video.
If you want to use your ISO (DVD Image file) you need to use it with a burning app like Ulead Disc Image Recorder.
If you're wanting to edit the video, you will need the DVD disc so VS can see the VOB files. The VS menu command would be Insert DVD/DVD-VR. It than strips the video (MPEG-2) files from the VOB, or rather strips the other data contained in the VOB, leaving the MPEG-2 to be inserted and edited.

Just a tip for the future: next time, instead of preparing an ISO of your project, choose 'DVD Folders' instead as the target for the 'burning'. This will prepare a Video_TS folder of your project. As you would know from looking at video DVDs, this is exactly what is on them. And you can use the command 'Insert DVD/DVD-VR' that Ron just mentioned, on them.
I do this all the time because it also means I can play them back in a DVD player program like PowerDVD or WinDVD to check they are the way I want them before committing them to disc. And like an ISO, once prepared you can burn as many copies of them as you like using third party software like Nero or Roxio Easy Media Creator.

thanks for your help. I am using a free software program to capture short clips off movies, instead of the whole movie. I can burn the clips to CD and recapture them as mpg files and then insert them into VS. I will try the folder option as the target. thanks. Was hoping I could directly import iso to VS
