| I'm trying to convert dvd vob files to xvid avi and most of the time I have no problem, but sometimes I can only get 1 or 2 files to encode. I'll hit the encode button and it's races through it in less than a minute and create a 2.3mb file. It's obviously not encoding the vob files. Has anyone had this issue and/or know how to fix it? I would use handbrake, but you can't fast forward any of the xvids that are created which really sucks. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. | ||||

When I tried to convert a VOB file, it said in the source format boxes "From: VOB Audio: None Video: None" and after it converts the file, I don't see a .mov file where it said it would save to.

| What system are you using ......... Linux, widooze or Mac
If its Mac or Windooze then try using Dr. DivX which is still free http://sourceforge.net/projects/drdivx/ | ||||

When converting from DVD using a ffmpeg preset, you should rip to a single file VOB. Converting individual VOBs may result in problems on some VOBs, while the concatenated file coverts right. |
