  • extracting VOB's how?

    I have an Aikido Clinic DVD that some idiot created using the +R format.
    No one is able to play this back, not one DVD device that I have can play this back either. In fact the second DVD (part of a two DVD set) isn't even recognized.

    At least the first DVD I can see the VOB files, is there an application so take those VOBs to convert them to Mpeg-2?

    Thanks in advance,
    Elie

    There are several, including some freebies, I believe, such as DVD2AVI and DVD2MPG, and DVD MF2, provided that the originals are not copy-protected.

      Got it thanks Brian!

      The only bad thing is that all my DVD Roms including set tops/XBox/Pioneer 104 cannot read the 2 disks.

      Very bad authoring I say!

      Cheers,
      Elie

        .. Xbox's with a Philips/Thompson pickup should be able to read those DVD's without any troubles.

        But there are a lot of Samsung 616 equipped Xbox's which absolutly refuse to read any DVD+R at all. The stupid thing is Samsung has something like 4 submodels of this 616 : one them reads +r and -r without any problem at all, the others simply refuse to recognize it. It seems there's a difference in the pickup itself, and no firmware flashing would help.

        For some strange reason, my own Xbox has absolutly no troubles reading +r nor -r, while my friends Xbox's simply don't do it : on opening the Xbox, we all *seemed* to have identical Samsung drives though.

        As for Pioneer, that's a bit odd. My a03 burner reads DVD+R. Even my old DVD-103 (reader) strangly enough has LESS troubles reading +R than it has when having to read DVD-R's....

        ....it's a mad world.
