How do I remux .mpg to .vob?

[cinephile]

I have re-encoded a movie using TMPGenc and now have a .mpg file.
How do I remux this back into VOB files using IFOedit so I can burn to DVD-R.

IFOedit expects .m2v file and when I try using .mpg file it gives me a "synchronisation err".

Will I need to re-encode again?

Plz any help appreciated.
I have read the guides but couldn't find help on this.

To my knowledge, only a DVD authoring program can create VOB files.
There are inexpensive programs for as little as $49.

TMPEGEnc can create seperate video and audio files, however, just change the extension afterwards.

Thx for your suggestion...

I've renamed .mpg to .m2v and I still get "Synchronisation error on MPEG file" msg, of which I cannot cancel without End-Tasking IFOedit.

Does this mean I cannot remux into VOBs?

I used ReMPEG previously to create my .m2v file and successfully remuxed into VOBs with IFOedit and then burnt, but I had jumping frames in playback so thought I'd use a diff encoder.

Anything else I can try?
Thx.

You cannot simply rename mpg files into m2v files.
Mpeg files contain both audio and video.
M2v files contain only video.

When I transcoded using TMPGenc I supplied a .wav file and .d2v file and I got a .mpg file.

How do I get this file back into IFOedit so I can put the DVD chapter menus around and then burn with Nero?

I did it with ReMPEG cos it creates a .m2v file - I thought TMPGenc wouyld be the same.

What are my options.

I just want to create my DVD with chapters and menus and my transcoded movie (which should all now fit on 1 DVD-R).
Thx.

Then you need a DVD authoring program.

I want to use the menu VOBs on the original DVD that I ripped, not create my own.
Can I still do that with an authoring program?
If so, what is the best authoring program?
If not, how do I burn the DVD with the original menus intact, using my .mpg file.

Sorry for asking stupid questions....
I will get it soon.....

Thx.

OK. Then you should have given all that info from the begining. You'd be finished by now.

You need to read the guides on ripping DVD's elsewhere on this site. It's all explained.
