vob to mpg with subtitles included

[brywkeo]

Does anyone know of a program that will allow me to rip a dvd (vob) to mpg with subtitles?
The ripping itself is no problem, but I want the subtitles included also.
Thanks
Bryan

If you want 1 large mpeg file you could use a program such as Vobmerger to join the vob's then rename the file extension from .vob to .mpg

but he wants to retain the subtitles within that mpg file.

you can use tmpgEnc Express , you can choose whether you want to rip vob with the subtitle or not, then the file that have been create .dvddata renamed it to .mpg

I really don't think mpg allows for subtitle streams. Hence the invention of VOB. Or am I completely wrong?

the mpeg-2 specs include a "user data" area that was supposed to be for closed captioning-not quite subtitles but close enough some folks think normal subs should be allowed in mpeg-2. i think the closest you can get is hard coded subs in mpeg-2. personally i've never seen a selectable sub in an mpeg-2 nor have i ever seen an encoder with an option to add them.
