understandable Mark, however you are going to have a LOT of issues if you try to proceed. What episodes do you need? Are they spread across all seasons?
I need:
Season 1: The Gathering, Family Tree
Season 2: The Watchers, The Darkness
Season 3: Methos, Finale 1 & 2 (well, maybe not Part 2)
Season 4: Homecoming
Season 5: Prophecy, Archangel

I ask because often it is much cheaper to buy individual seasons than the box sets. I see season 1 DVD set on ebay for as low as $4.99. just something to look into.
Interesting. I hadn't considering going that route, because I figured, if I'm needing so many seasons (I hate having an incomplete collection of pretty much anything; that's why I'm choosy about starting in on buying anything lengthy), I might as well buy The Immortal Collection, which includes the exclusive Reunion minisode (which sells for an insanely high amount on its own, used). Not sure what to do here.

First of all, the codec and container for the episodes you have are quite low quality. If you look past that, as Q2 mentioned, you may have a DRM issue. You can check by trying to convert to DVD with something like SUPER or TMPGEnc or whatever you have. If you have a problem with simple conversion, than DRM is going to be a big roadblock.
I'll install SUPER and give conversion a try.

If it isn't DRM, and Womble just doesn't work with WMV files (I can't recall if it can or not), just convert to another format first.
Womble can handle WMV file, just not the copy of "The Gathering" that I downloaded, so it's likely a DRM issue.

Keep in mind though, that 2 conversions (one to work with in Womble, and the final render) along with the poor quality input file will result in a very poor final fanedit.
just things to consider as you proceed.
Understood. Thanks for your help.
