Any good free software to reformat my reg. home-movie DVDs, to a format that Windows Movie Maker can recognize

Question

I can use Windows Movie Maker using stills and clips from reg. digital camara. But, I have hours and hours and hours of home movies that have been burned onto DVDs. I want to capture those movies and reformat them, so that I can edit them with Windows Movie Maker. Is there some free software on download.com that can turn my home-dvds into the correct format ?? And if there is, which one is the best ?? Thank you !!

Answer 1

power dvd seems to recognize most formats but unfortunately it isnt free.
