i have no idea if this would work ...
but assuming Mplayer/Mencoder have packages for OSX and python has port for OSX you can try DPGConv
though i can't help with "easy step by step instruction"

dpgconv does work on OS X, provided you have mplayer/mencoder (and possibly ffmpeg) installed. Unfortunately, you'll probably have to get mplayer through fink or compile it yourself, which falls outside the realm of "easy step by step instructions".

yes. I compiled it on my G5 without any troubles; presumably it will work on any Mac.

here's the application:

Here's mencoder:

have them in the same folder to convert DPG.
