When I "explore" the DVD that I am working with, I first will see a folder
that is labeled "VIDEO_TS" when I open that folder I see the following list
of files: VIDEO_TS.BUP( 12KB) VIDEO_TS.IFO(12KB) VIDEO_TS.VOB(30KB)
VTS_01_0.BUP(82KB) VTS_01_0.IFO(82KB) VTS_01_1.VOB(1,048,544KB)
VTS_01_2.VOB(607,568KB) I changed the VOB to MPG on the VTS_01_1.VOB file
and the VTS_01_2.VOB file. I tried to import both files into WMM and I was
told that the VTS_01_2 file was empty. The VTS_01_1 imported ok but when I
tried to drag the file to the timeline it would only drag to the
"audio/music" time line. Also the video screen in WMM was black and when I
tried to "play" it I was only able to hear the sound of the video--no picture
at all.
I will try your next suggestion later (too many things to do today!). Then I
will report on that situation.
While I have your attention I have another question about WMM. I have a
backup PC that I want to install WMM on. I am a bit confused though. I read
somewhere that there is a WMM2 available, but I have not been able to find
it. The WMM that I have on my main PC is Versin 5.1 (Build
2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.080814-1236 : Service Pack 3) then below that it says: WMM
Version 2.1.4026.0
What's what and which one should I put on the other PC--should I leave the
one that I listed above on my main PC???

I have many "family" VHS tapes that I have copied to DVD's using a==================================
Sony DVDR. The DVD file type is a .VOB At this point I would like to
edit some of these DVD's that I have made by taking out short clips
and saving them to my computer--when I get enough clips I would then
burn them to an empty DVD disc. Windows Movie Maker will not support
VOB files so I can't use it to edit my DVD's. Anyone have any ideas
what software would allow me to edit VOB files???
First...just try renaming the file to VIDEO_TS.MPG
and see if it will import. If the import works...drag
the file to the timeline and Save/Publish it in the
..wmv or .avi format. Then...reimport the new movie
clip for editing purposes.
If that fails...rename the file back to Video_TS.VOB
and try converting the file to .wmv or .avi using the
following free converter:
SUPER © Simplified
Universal Player Encoder & Renderer
http://www.videohelp.com/tools/SUPER
(the mirror download site is faster)
(FWIW...it's always a good practice to create a
System Restore point before installing new software)
After installing SUPER...open the program and
drag/drop your .VOB file into the Active field.
Output Container...choose...wmv.
Left click the Encode button.
Choose: Simple Profile / OK...
Wait...
(FWIW..I have better luck with video if I do not
try to multi-task while a file is being converted)
When the file is converted...you should find it in...
Program Files / eRightSoft / Super / OutPut.
Or...you can type...Ctrl+T...to open the Save
Window and choose a save folder.
Good luck...
