How to author & burn a DVD from VOB trailers/files

From:http://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=120021

Added joining with vobedit. It should then work better to play the vob trailers on your standalone DVD Player. Thanks to max64 for the tips and derrow for vobedit/ifoedit.

If you have some VOB/DVD Trailers or just some VOB files that you would like to burn on a DVD you can either demultiplex them to video and audio files that you can author with any DVD author tool or you can use Vobedit and Ifoedit as I will explain here. Ifoedit does not support any menus, you will only get a DVD with the trailers/files.

Tools required:
Vobedit
Ifoedit
DVD Burning tool like Recordnow Max, Nero or imgtool(freeware) with DVD Decrypter(freeware).

First you have to put all your vob trailers/files in a folder.


And then rename all files to VTS_01_001.vob...VTS_01_002.vob...VTS_01_003.vob and so on. Each vob will be a separate chapter.



Now start Vobedit to fix the vobs so it will play okey on your player.
1. Click open and open the first VTS_01_001.vob
2. Select File->Join Clips



1. Choose a new folder and name it VIDEO_TS
2. Save the new VOB_01_1.vob file.


A dialog popups
1. Check so it says 1
2. Click OK.

Vobedit will make the new working vob.

You should now have one vob or some vob file(s).

Now start Ifoedit
1. Click on the Create IFOs button.
2. Open the first VTS_01_1.vob
3. Select use same as source
4. And hit OK



Ifoedit will make the new .ifo files.



You must now set the default language. First for the VIDEO_TS.ifo
1. Click on VIDEO_TS
2. Double click on the audio
3. Set the languague to english
4. Hit Ok
5. Click save and owerwrite the VIDEO_TS.IFO


Do the same for the VTS_01_1.IFO
1. Click on VTS_01_1.IFO
2. Double click on the audio
3. Set the languague to english
4. Hit Ok
5. Click save and owerwrite the VTS01_1.IFO


Last fix the VTS sectors
1. Click on Get VTS Sectors
2. Select YES to process all IFO files

Close ifoedit.
You should now have some ifo and bup files and the vob file.

You have now a (hopefully) a working DVD on your HD. To burn it using ifoedit and dvddecrypter(freeware), read here how. Or burn the created VIDEO_TS folder with InstantDVD or some other DVD Burning app and your are done, read more here how to burn to DVD-Video standard.

You can also test the DVD before burning it, use WinDVD or PowerDVD and select the partition with the VIDEO_TS as the default drive and play.
