How to convert DVD vob files to a mpeg 2 file?
It's that size because they show you how to do it using lots of different
programs. Just pick the section most relevant to you... One of the simplest method is to use a program called Vidomi which will take your VOB's and give you an AVI, once you've configured all the options... Again, there should be a guide for this on that site, as well as download links. Personally, I use DVD2AVI myself as Vidomi, although good, is really aimed at the beginner... You'll get much better results doing it the long and complicated way. No one ever said doing this is easy... Lorne "Dmitriy Kopnichev" wrote in message ... The www.dvdrhelp.com XviD guide with all it's links is 40 pages long and uses about 4 separate programs. Is there an easier way to compress a not copyrighted DVD to a 700 mb file? "Lorne Smith" wrote in message ... Most definately NOT. WMV is good for streaming, but that's about it. If you want to store it on CD, then I would recommend either DiVX or XViD. Of the two, I find XViD gives slightly better results. If you want it to be playable in a DVD player, then you should use MPEG1 or MPEG2 format instead. All guides for this are on www.dvdrhelp.com. There also used to be a link to the old version of VirtualDUB on there, but I don't know if it's still on there.. Lorne "Dmitriy Kopnichev" wrote in message ... Would WMV codec 9 be the best format for compressing DVD to a CD? "Lorne Smith" wrote in message ... Unfortunately WMV is proprietry to MS so no other programs are allowed to compress to this format without their permission. There used to be several free apps which could, such as old versions of VirtualDUB, but MS ca me all Big Brother on them and made them take it out... To be honest, with TMPGEnc at it's highest quality settings, you won't visibly lose any quality...

How to convert DVD vob files to a mpeg 2 file?
Compressing in Windows Movie Maker 2 is much easier. Windows Movie Maker 2
automatically determines the best codec for the compression. But it doesn't import VOBs. I will try to use your suggestions. "Lorne Smith" wrote in message ...

Look for a product called HEURIS Xtractor. http://www.heuris.com this program
will extract the MPEG-2 video and AC-3 audio from a VOB file. It doesn't do any recompression, just de-vobs the MPEG-2 video and AC-3 audio.. Mark |

How to convert DVD vob files to a mpeg 2 file?
For the sake of simplicity, you might consider the evaluation/ purchase of
an inexpensive commercially available utility such as Pinnacle "Instant Copy." It should do most everything you want in terms of transferring DVD content directly to CD R/W media, and, without all the hassels and headaches attributed to using freeware products. http://www.pinnaclesys.com/ProductPa...53&Langue_ID=7 Keep in mind that there are other DVD authoring packages available that directly import VOB (DVD formatted content) and format/ burn to CD; i.e. DVD Workshop, Sonic MyDVD (I believe it supports VOB) and probably quite a few others. -- Digger Dmitriy Kopnichev wrote: The www.dvdrhelp.com XviD guide with all it's links is 40 pages long and uses about 4 separate programs.

Use DVD2SVCD from www.dvd2svcd.org It rips the VOB's
converts to MPEG and creates the required disk images to burn to CD. There are many links to user guides on the site.

How to convert DVD vob files to a mpeg 2 file?
Thanks for your reply!
What format is the best then? "Lorne Smith" wrote in message ... I've already said that there ARE no longer any free apps which can do this. As for the old version of VirtualDUB, there used to be a link to it on www.dvdrhelp.com but this program cannot read VOB's so you would need to convert to an AVI first anyway. No matter what you do, you are going to HAVE to use an intermedia conversion format to go from VOB to WMV (which is a sucky format IMHO anyway). Maybe you should reevaluate what you actually want to DO with the files.... Lorne "Dmitriy Kopnichev" wrote in message ...
