How to burn VOB files onto a DVD?

Hello everyone, I've seen this question asked in other forum postings, but I can't seem to find the specific answer I'm looking for. Basically, I have several VOB files that I want to burn onto a DVD that I can play in a regular DVD player. Can anyone please recommend any applications that would be good to do this? I appreciate any help and support I can get, thanks!

  • Putting 2 vob files onto 1 DVD -Please help

    I borrowed a handicam that burns to mini DVD, as mine broke. Usually I import files as DV on the mac from my camera and cut them together there.
    With this camera, I have two halves of a recital that I want to put onto 1 DVD. I saved the DOB files from each mini disc ont my Mac and I figured I would just put them both into iDVD or edit with iMovie and burn onto 1 DVD, but I cannot import or use DOB files with them. I also have Final Cut Express, but again - no DOB files. iMovie won't take them.
    I tried converting the files with VLC or MPEG Stream on a PC but the audio and video don't sync.
    All I want to do is put both VOB files on a DVD that will play in a DVD player.
    Please help me! I am extremely frustrated and under a deadline...

    Make your sequences, export out as DV AVI files, bring them into Encore and author as usual.

  • How to burn movie files onto a disc for others to use not just watch?

    Hi! I used my video camera to record my sister's wedding ceremony and other little clips throughout the day. I want to give her those files to use however she wants. I don't want to edit them or give them to her as a watchable DVD.
    I want to be able to burn them onto a DVD-R and then she can upload them onto her computer and edit/manipulate them as she pleases.
    Problem is, the ceremony video alone is 9.28 GB! How can I get her these files? Thanks!

    Not if any single file is 4GB or larger; this is the size limit for FAT32 drives. The OP stated that one file was 9GB.
    Good point - I've kept a small, portable drive formated with FAT32 to transfer an occasional small file to my PC friends.
    Mac OS X 10.6.6 can read and write exFAT
    Since not all my systems use Snow Leopard, exFAT isn't yet an option for me.

  • Need help quick! Please! How do I burn Picture Files onto a DVD?!

    When I put in a blank DVD, it doesn't show up in finder. So i thought i'd try using the Disk Utility. I select the DVD on the side bar and press the "burn" button. The picture files are grey and unelectable; i actually didn't see a selectable file. Please please help, I need this done in 30 minutes! Do i have to burn them onto CD's?

    Since I have no idea what Operating system your using I will give it for both Tiger and Leopard.

  • How to burn Microsoft Powerpoint onto a DVD disc..

    I need to start making a Microsoft Powerpoint (2010) with music but am uncertain how I would burn it onto a disc when finished..
    What kind of disc would I need and what format would I need to save it as to avoid losing any data?
    The disc and presentation is going to be created on my MacBook Pro, but would need to be playable on a PC.
    Hope this isn't a stupid question but i have NO idea - I just got a Mac so I am really new with this...

    If purchased the SuperDrive with your Macbook Pro, it supports these formats:
    Apple reports that this slot-loading "SuperDrive" (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW) has a maxium write speed of "8x DVD-R, DVD+R; 4x DVD-R DL (double layer), DVD+R DL (double layer), DVD-RW, DVD+RW; 24x CD-R; 10x CD-RW" and a maximum read speed of "8x DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-ROM; 6x DVD-ROM (double layer DVD-9), DVD-R DL (double layer), DVD+R DL (double layer), DVD-RW, and DVD+RW; 24x CD".

  • How to burn multiple files on a DVD-R

    I'm new to the disc-burning business. Throught the Apple support chat, they told me I could "multisession burn" by using Disk Utility instead of Finder. The webpage support sent me was for an older OS (not OS X 10.4). This didn't translate to the newer version. Any help? Thanks.

    Robert, Welcome to the discussion area!
    AFAIK, you can only muti-session burn to a CD not to a DVD.

  • How do you get a 4.36-gig file onto a DVD-R that will only take 4.28 gigs?

    Hi there -- the kind folks in the iDVD forum explained why my 4.7-gig DVD-Rs won't actually hold 4.7 gigs, but the topic seems to have ground to a halt after that.
    I have a 4.36-gig video/movie file (suffixed "ISO," if that's relevant) that I tried to burn to a 4.7-gig DVD-R, but the DVD-R says there's only 4.28 gigs available. I tried this on three different disks from two different packages.
    What can I do to burn the file onto a DVD-R?
    I have Final Cut Express if that can be used to reduce the size a little bit -- I've never used the program, so any instructions would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Al -- thanks for your reply. I actually e-mailed the file's originator and he suggested using Disk Utility instead of just trying to drag the files onto the DVD-R. He said it would fit if I did this, and darned if he wasn't right!

  • Burning VOB files

    Can anyone tell me how to copy vob files to a DVD+R DL disc. I have backed up a couple of my own DVD's and want to make a backup copy. What program should I be using? Warning, I'm somewhat new to the mac.

    The .VOB (and .IFO and .BUP) files should be in a VIDEO_TS folder. To make a DVD from them you need DVD Imager

    Just follow the instructions on that page to burn the DVD.

  • How do I burn a video onto a dvd out of imovie 11?

    How do I burn a video onto a dvd out of imovie 11?
    Also the program churns and churns, till I'm able to do something else. Why so slow? Is there any render button?

    Here is a step by step on how to create a DVD from iMovie 10 using iDVD 7.1.2. If you do not have iDVD, you can probably substitute Toast (or one of the programs Pieter mentioned) everywhere I used iDVD (I don't have Toast so can't verify this).
    1. Create a project in iMovie 10.0.1
    2. Go to File>Share>File... and for Size choose Large 540P (960 x 540) and click Next
    3. Choose a location on the hard drive to save the file to.
    4. Wait for the blue circle activity indicator to finish.
    5. In Finder, verify that iMovie created an MP4 file in the location specified in step 3.
    6. Open iDVD and click "Create New Project."
    7. Give the project a name and save it to your hard drive.
    8. Drag the file you created earlier from the Finder into your iDVD project window.
         (or go to File>Import>Video... and choose your video there)
    9. Make any adjustments to drop zones, etc.
    10. Click the burn button.
    11. Insert a DVD and let it do its thing.
    This produces a working DVD for me.
    Here are my software specs:
    OS X 10.9 Mavericks
    iMovie 10.0.1
    iDVD 7.1.2

  • How to turn VOB files into DVD Movie

    I came across a computer that had something like a "DVD MOVIE" file.
    It was basically vob files packaged inside a "DVD MOVIE" so when you clicked on it, it would
    play like a dvd movie.  I have extracted some VOB files from a DVD disc to have
    a "VIDEO_TS" folder containing the movie, but of course I can only play the VOB files
    in a program like VLC...my question is - What do i need to do to put these vob files into
    this "DVD FILE" folder or whatever so i can just click on it and it play a normal dvd?
    It may have said "Movie file".......thanks.

    I use Roxio Toast which converts and burns the VIDEO_TS folder with the VOB files into a playable DVD. It does not come cheaply but is well worth the money. There are also a lot of converters around that will shrink and convert your VOB files to .avi or .mp4 or whatever you prefer. Just do a google search or go to the App Store. MPEGStreamclip is a free program that is an excellent converter.

  • Making VOB Files Play on DVD Player

    I am using MPEG Streamclip to create edited VOB or TS files of personal DVD recordings. I can burn these files onto a data DVD, but I can only use my computer to play them. What I need is some kind of application that I can point to all of my VOB or TS files and it would create a IFO playlist in a VIDEO_TS folder that would run on my DVD player. I hope that makes sense. Basically, I need to go from a folder full of VOB video files to a DVD that will run on a DVD Player.
    Thanks in advance!

    If you still have Toast 6, please update it least to version 6.0.9. Previous Toast versions could alter audio/video sync of muxed MPEG files. Some versions of Toast may have trouble burning some MPEGs with mp2 audio -- a workaround is to demultiplex the MPEG to m2v and m1a (or aiff) with MPEG Streamclip and burn them with Toast. Toast may lose audio sync or be too picky and reject some MPEGs -- a workaround is to demultiplex the MPEG to m2v and aiff with MPEG Streamclip and burn them with Toast. Converting to "Headed" MPEG adds a special header to the MPEG file that lets you import unsupported frame sizes into Toast 6 or 7 and skip recompression. However, DVDs made from "headed" MPEG files are not guaranteed to work with all players.
    Sizzle does not have encoding capabilities. Maybe it is just re-muxing the files?

  • How do I get files from multiple DVDs that are using thesame file names?

    How do I get files from multiple DVDs that are using thesame file names? Message says "file already exists in catalog"

    I am viewing your question from different perspective, that is, the issue that you face when you are ripping VOBs from a second DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc using Premiere Elements,
    It is best to give the Premiere Elements version and computer operating system that it is running on. In the absence of that, I will generalize.
    Assuming that you are using
    Premiere Elements 12
    Add Media
    "DVD Camera or Computer Drive"
    Video Importer
    Typically the Video Importer Save In: is C:\Users\Owner\Videos
    Each of your DVD discs is going to have the same names for the ripped VOBs (VTS_01_1.VOB and so on depending on the duration of the movie). Consequently, after the ripping of the first DVD's VOBs and their save to Videos, you will end up with that "files already existing..." block for the ripping of the VOBs from the second DVD.
    The answer is, for each DVD disc VOB ripping, to plan ahead and create and set for different folders in Videos in the Save In field of the Video Importer.
    Please review and then let us know if that works for you. Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
    Thank you.

  • Backing up files onto a DVD+RW disc

    I have backed up files onto a DVD+RW disc from my Mac.  However, when I go back to do another update, I get the message that I can't copy file because the disc is a read-only.  Why do I get this message?

    It's foolish to backup to a CD or DVD, get yourself an External HD (they're relatively inexpensive) and use Time Machine. Please get one that is 1.5 to 2x the size of your internal HD. If you don't know how to use TM then simply look on YouTube and search for "Time Machine Tutorial" and you will find many videos.
    The reason you get the error message is because writeable CD & DVDs can only be written to once, you cannot go back and add information. This make the practice silly and ineffective for backups.

    The procedure is dated and I will assume that the DVD is not copy-protected since discussion of such things is verboten.
