    You probably need to install the AC3 Filter to get the audio out of the VOBs. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=66022&package_id=63808[^]

    Found on Bash.org [erno] hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is.

      I know this has been asked before, but none of the responses I can find, help. I want to convert a couple of DVDs to MPG, for my portable media player. I can buy them both as mpeg from Amazon for $30, so I'm not looking to spend a lot of money on a converter. The cheapest one I've found that doesn't have audio sync problems, is $35. All the ones I've downloaded that claim to be free, rip up to 5 min and cost > $60. What do other people use ? Note: I don't want to copy VOB files, I want to create an MPG or WMV.

      I had too much time on my hands last weekend in Arizona. So, I came up with this... I used a DVD Ripper program, DVDDecrypter-3.1.4.0.exe, and I ripped a DVD to my laptop. The DVD was a music DVD that ripped out 4 ea. 1,048,572KB files. I just renamed the file extension from .VOB to .mpeg. Now windows media player will play the file. I then hooked up my Windows Mobile 5.0 phone and used the Windows Media Player 10 on my laptop to sync to my 8525 cingular phone. I have a 1G memory stick in my phone. Each 1,048,572KB file crunched down to about 48MB on the phone. So, a whole DVD is about 190MB total. I've been watching my Pink Floyd DVD on my phone for over a week now. I'm sure you can do this with other DVD's. Is it perect? Not really, but I'm watching video on my phone for free :). I got even better results by putting the phone in "flight mode" and turning off/on the phone. Then, I didn't have any skips and the video didn't get out of sync.
