is there software that will capture mini dv and re-encodes to vob on the fly instead of to the big avi file?

i think vob is a dvd authoring only file structure ,
it is such a pain for 6hrs to wait for 1hr of mini dv content
to be converted to vob files for a dvdr after.

i think mpg2 also has to be re-encoded to vob.

i wish the electronics compaines would have made dvd authoring instant while recording to mini dv tape , i bet it was just a ploy to buy dvd camcorders 3 years later.
