Ultralite / Sonar question.. how to record audio from a DVD?

I'm trying to record a couple of quotes of dialogue from a movie off of a DVD and I'm not getting good quality. I have limited knowledge of how to route my Ultralite for the optimal way to do this. I'm using an Ultralite and Sonar 7. I'm trying to get the purest sound by grabbing audio internally, but I can't figure out how to get Sonar to recognize the DVD audio as an input... if that is even possible.

Any suggestions?

Well, there is that whole copyright issue as well. :D

I'm assuming this is just for personal use. If you're on a PC I'd suggest doing some searches in Google for software that does this. Again, I'm assuming that this is just for your own personal fun and you might make an error beep with the sound or something. I'm hesitant to have a detailed thread start about this here, because this isn't something that I think technically is supposed to be done on movies.

All that I am trying to do is replicate the song Flash Gordon live for one of cover bands. There is nothing illegal about that as long as the clubs we play pays their licensing fee.
