Problem with joining VOB's with VOBedit

[Ol' Goat]

I'm trying to join 39 .VOB's. I'm useing the "join VOB trailers" guide form this web site. When I select "join files","save as","firse VOB 1" nothing happens. I've tried to reduce the number of files but with no change. Is there a setting that is presumed to be already set? I'm no pro so please don't take for granted that I've set everythinf correctly. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't know how to do this with VobEdit (you may be able to), but you could try VOBMerge.

I don't know why it works but I have found that I have had to rename my source files to "VTS_01_001.VOB, VTS_01_002.VOB..." to get the joining to work properly. I open the first VOB and then go to edit > Join Clips. Works every time.

that's the format VOBEDIT requires for the join clip to work. If the guides don't tell you that you should look for a new guide.

Once again I must have been too tired when I was trying it. I changed the files to VTS_01_1.vob, VTS_01_2.vob. I left out a couple of zeros. Thanks guys for the help and thank you Turtle49 for VOBMerge.

My guide tells me that - I simply meant that I don't know why VOBEdit was created this way - obviously caters for up to 999 VOB files !
