Ripping A DVD with 3 sections into 1 .AVI

[Blue_3]

I have "Hellsing; Ultimate Volume 2". I just got it and my PC doesn't care for it to much haha.

Well it has this protection on it so it was really hard to RIP it to my pc but here what I managed to do.

I used "RipIt4Me" and ripped only the "Movie" which came out to be 3 .vob's. 1 GIG, 1 GIG, 500 MB. I encoded them all using AutoGK. I set the resolutions all the same and frame rates of course at at 23.??? and Audio to VBR MP3 128.. It encoded them great. Took that 2.5 gigs down to 500 mb and is in good quality still. So I then tried using VirtualDubMod to combine "Append" all 3 clips together and I get this error message:

and here si the Properties of the clips:

I did just notice that he last one is 29fps.. but its not the problem, because I'm only clickign the first 2.. and they are the same except the bitrate..

Basically, Is it possible to combine these 3 clips with all different bitrate, or even better what program will allow me to specify the exact bitrate I want them to be?

Thanks In Advance

I would have joined the 3 VOB's first into one large VOB with vobmerge then convert that to a divx/xvid/avi...

Much easier.

VOB's Merged very fast. and was very easy to use. Encoding now. Gonna be several hours. So I'll tell you how great it worked. Thanks Again.

Just make sure when you merged them that they were in the correct order in the preview window....

I've had them go,

2VOB
3VOB
4VOB
5VOB
1VOB

after adding them all & have to move the 1st VOB back to the top before merging.

You could also append the VOB's in virtualdubmod or avidemux and encode with the same application.
