Help needed changing a DVD into an Mpeg

[Gilderoy]

Got an onboard video of croft circuit (for the track guides section) but the video recorder will only write it to a DVD? How can I change it to an Mpeg for posting? I guessed Windows Movie Maker but was unsure?

[veeeffarr]

Have you tried it with Windows Movie Maker?

[Gilderoy]

Just getting it off Kazaa now so we'll see......

tried this mate and it doesn't recognise the files, windows movie maker says the same??

The disc holds two folders, Video_RM and Video_TS? each folder contains files that my system can't understand?

[White Noise]

it should read files with the .VOB extension

Cheers WN, that seems to be doing the trick.

Does it usually take a long time? Mine's going very slow?

depends how big the file is, one trick i use is to copy the files to your hard disk first then read them from there as the acess speed will be quicker than it is trying to get it off the DVD

Right, for some reason once i've cut it the quality of the video and sound are really crap???

[White Noise]

how big is the file you are wanting to create and how long in time is the clip you are trying to convert?

the vid i posted was about 1 min 10 secs and that was 10 MB, so try setting the output file to be 110 MB. what have you been setting it at before?

the size is 497MB at 24 mins but after i cut it it was about 12 mins so less than half that but still a really bad picture?

Cheers WN that seems to have done it, I'll up load it if I can.

Anyone feel free to modify it and add music etc as the sound keeps going off, it seems the the mic can't cope with 107db oumping out of the pipes.

[Gilderoy]

ok when i add it as an attachment, after about 20 mins it comes up with something like no post mode specified?
