Corrupt VOB files..?

[djdust]

Hi all

I've got 3 individual VOB files (which are 0:31, 3:34 and 3:24 minutes each that run to a total of 7:29 minutes) that I recorded from a video using my standalone DVD recorder. I've been experimenting with merging them together but have encountered problems with the results...

1) I renamed the files to VTS_01_001.vob, VTS_01_002.vob and VTS_01_003.vob

2) I started VOBEdit, did File > Join Clips, and saved the resulting VOB files and ended up with a single VOB file..

However, this VOB file isn't behaving quite right. When playing it back it shows as having a length of only 4:20 mins. It DOES play all 7:29 minutes uninterrupted though - the slider (which shows how far through the track is just goes to the far right and sticks there...)

It suggests that the 3 VOB files are somehow corrupted but, if that was the case, wouldn't they all show the wrong time when being played back individually...?

Can anyone help shed some light on why this could be happening?

Cheers

Use a real mpeg2 editor instead like videoredo.

Tmpgenc Mpeg Editor do what you want.

From the command line: COPY /B VTS_01_001.vob+VTS_01_002.vob+VTS_01_003.vob combined.vob

Please be sure to let us know if that doesn't work.
