How do I change my VOB files into a standard MPEG file so my editor or authoring program can open it?
Technically VOB files are 100% standards compliant but those standards allow for private information that isn’t used in all MPEGs. There are several ways to extract the video and audio into standard containers (ie either muxed MPEG files or individual audio and video files) so more programs can use them. The easiest way to get an MPEG when starting from DVD title sets is using VOB2MPGEG. It will create 1 MPEG file for each title set (VTS). This will include every menu and title in the set of files. If you want a single title instead, you may want to make a movie only copy with a program like DVD Shrink first and then let VOB2MPEG create an MPEG file with just that title. Demuxing If you need to get separate audio and video files (elementary streams) you can use DGIndex (formerly DVD2AVIdg) to Demux either a title set from a DVD or an MPEG from VOB2MPEG. If you’re starting with DVD files on your hard drive use the auto-increment option to open the first VOB and then the Demux option fro
