Converting .vob files to AVI

[abrathet]

Hi, I'm trying to convert a .vob file which has been ripped onto my computer with mactheripper. ffmpegX encodes the whole file, but it zooms in and encodes only a small portion of the image. I have tried to follow guides on how to do it with no luck as to fixing this problem. I think it has something to do with the crop settings but I can't figure how to adjust these properly. Help would be greatly appreciated!

Pushing the Autocrop button will try to get the non-black area at the time set in the Preview field (to the right of the Crop section). It will also start mplayer to show you the crop area. If the default 00:30 isn't suitable for cropping, then set a different time where it is more easily determined where to crop (e.g. a brighter scene, or at least non-black at the edges). So keep an eye on the timecode as it plays in mplayer.
