MAC CS5 - importing .VOB files (HELP!)

I have a NON-copy protected TS_VIDEO folder.  I can play the video fine with DVD Player.
I created a PP project...imported the VOB files and in the PROJECT preview window the video seems fragmented...jumps around the video...video clip are there but the entire video in the VOB isn't previewing.
I brought it into the SOURCE window...same fragmentation...I dragged it to the TIMELINE...same fragmentation.
What am I doing wrong?  Is is something to do with the SEQUENCE created...DV - NTSC 48mHz?
Wouldn't you know this would happen the day before a project is due.
I have rebooted the MAC, I have no other programs running...I have restarted PP...I have oodles of RAM.
Thanks,  --bill

  • Import VOB file ok, export shaky

    I am using Adobe Premiere CS5, works fine.
    Now I am trying to reedit old home videos so I imported VOB files from my burned DVDs. 4:3 ratio movies, I expand these so I have full widescreen (16:9) view.
    Video and audio seem to be all right.
    However when I try to export  the new file (to 16:9), horizontal movements are not ok, the persons or objects which move horizontally (quickly) are not ok, the outlines are weird.
    So within Adobe Premiere there is no problem, but after exporting the file (AVI), it just doesn't look right on the TV.

    VOB files are highly compressed... a DV AVI file is about 13Gig per hour, a VOB of that same hour compressed to fit on a DVD
    When you edit a VOB and then export, you are adding a second compression... so your results are not going to be all that great

  • Problem importing VOB files using Premiere Pro CC

    Something must have changed between CS6 & CC as far as importing VOB files from non-DRM DVDs.
    When I import the VOB files from a DVD using CS6, the import seems to go fine.
    But when I import the VOB files from the same DVD using CC, the video info Frame Size and Aspect Ratio of the last VOB files comes in "wrong" when it should be the same as all of the other files.
    It always seems to be the last file and it always seems to be off by the same amount.
    I can Interpret Footage back to the same aspect ratio as the rest of the VOB files, but I cannot seem to fix the incorrect framesize.
    I am using Premiere Pro CC Version 7.2.1(4).
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Try this instead.

  • Importing VOB Files

    I am able to import VOB files, however footage gets removed (i.e. computer's dvd drive plays the entire piece, but is almost cut in half time-wise when imported) and the audio is slightly not in-synch.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 ERROR import VOB file

    Today my Premiere Pro CS4 had Error about importing VOB file but yesterday it's can import smoothly.
    please help me fix the problem.
    *ERROR Picture*
    thanks
    ps. i just done updated CS4 to the latest this morning but the ERROR still show.

    Harm,
    I also wonder if the OP's version might not have reverted to the "trial" version, with the update. Because the VOB is an MPEG, that would not be supported.
    If this has happened, you will need to Deactivate, uninstall, run Adobe Clean Script CS4 several times, re-booting between each, and then re-installing and Activating. Then immediately do the full updating. To test whether you now have the "trail" version, just Import an MPEG file, and see if you get a File Format/CODEC error message.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Any way to import VOB files?

    I want to take an existing DVD created with a standalone burner, and replace the generic Sony menu with a custom menu I create in Encore 5.  I alsmo need to change the chapter stops.
    I'd like to be able to import the VOB files from the DVD so I don't need to recompress them, but every time I drag a VOB file into Encore, no matter the filename or size, it names the file VTS_01_1.VOB and gives it a duration of 15 seconds.
    Is there a way to work with these files?  Or a program that will split my VOB files into mv2 and ac3 files so that I can work with them without doing any recompression?

    toecheese wrote:
    Why does Encore allow me to import VOB files at all if it isn't going to handle them properly?
    The reason is in "DVD created with a standalone burner"
    Such files are very often NOT according the strict standard... I think it mentions that in the link I posted a bit ago
    Also, VOB's on a DVD contain menu and other information... since they are, of course, an output + viewing format, not meant to be edited or reused

  • How to Import VOB files into Premiere Pro?

    In CS4 I could import VOB files from a DVD disc, but very often they wouldn't play right. In CS6 the program just freezes. Can I import and edit vob files in CS6?

  • Importing VOB files into PP CS3

    I have looked at numerous forum notes on this problem with PP and I've about come to the conclusion that the easiest thing might be to just buy a copy of Premiere Elements. I understand Premiere Elements will import VOBs and convert them to AVI. Some of the other solutions require several pieces of software, multiple steps, etc sometimes with limited successs.
    My most recent attempt (just renaming the VOB file to MPG) resulted in good quality video with no audio. Is the primary reason for loss of audio the AC3 Dolby? Will copying the ad2mcac3dec.dll file from the Encore CS3 directory to the PP CS3 root directory really solve that problem? Is that it? That would be nice but somehow I'm a little skeptical. Are there other reasons for losing the audio when you just rename the VOB file to MPG?

  • How can I import vob files into imovie 09?

    how can I import vob files into imovie 09? i have some home movies on dvd that i want to edit.

    You might want to look at this one too.  Very easy to use and it doesn't require the Apple MPEG-2 playback component.

  • Premiere Pro CS5.5 importing .MOV files help!

    Hi, I have been using this software for quite a while now but this problem has only just started occuring.
    When I import video files from either my iPhone 4s or Ipad3 into PPro the monitor preview screen goes green, but when I insert the video file onto the timeline I can hear the audio but the video file itself is just showing green.
    When I open the exact same file with WMP, VLC player, FLV player quicktime and so on it is perfect but this only happens when I import into PPro CS5.5.
    I also have a handheld HD video camera which records in .MOV format and when I import those files into PPro it works just fine, so it is only the iPhone and iPad files that it does not like!
    I'm assuming this is a codec issue?
    Please can someone help as this is driving me insane!
    Many thanks
    Dan
    P.S, this has only just started happening, I have been importing iPad and iPhone video files into PPro for ages with no problems whatsoeva, I am not aware that I have deleted anything like codecs or anything that would make this start happening. Very strange!

    >assuming this is a codec issue
    Maybe... or maybe a Windows update changed "something" that has made your graphic adapter cause problems
    So... ATI or nVidia, and EXACT driver version... and, for either, have you gone to the vendor site (NOT Windows Update) to see if there is a newer driver?
    nVidia Driver Updates http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
    IF you have nVidia... How to determine your nVidia driver version
    Right click in any open area of the Windows desktop
    Select NVIDIA Control Panel from the popup window
    Select SYSTEM INFORMATION at the lower left corner
    Driver version should be the 1st line in Details

  • How to import .vob files into Encore CS5?

    I know Encore CS4 and 5 support the import of .VOB files but how is this achieved exactly?  I've got a DVD that is not copy protected and I've tried Import as Asset and dragging the .VOB files to the project but neither works.  What's the procedure please?

    You do not.
    You can Import 100% DVD-compliant VOB's into PrPro, as of CS4.2. That is what you will want to do.
    The alternative method is to rip the MPEG-2 files from those VOB with other software, and then Import those into Encore.
    A VOB is what Encore produces, not what it uses.
    This ARTICLE will give you some background.
    Good luck,

  • Import vob file to imovie no tone

    I managed to import a .vob file from a disk to imovie, with the import/file function in imovie.  But there is no tone with the film.  When I check the vob file with MPEGstremclip of Quicktime , there is a tone.
    Any help how to import the vob file with tone?

    Use MPEG Streamclip for this, and you will have sound.

  • Importing vob files into dvd studio pro 4

    hi
    any help please ?
    i have a project ,where i have a dvd already made and i now need to ad extra features to it,
    with the original dvd i have only the video ts folder to go with.
    i cant inport the vob files ,i changed the extensions to mpeg,mpg,mv2
    all were not able to be imported,tried idvd no luck.
    seeing that the vob files are mpeg2 i would expect that dont need to be converted ,but is it something to do with the audio files needing to be separated?
    cheers
    i find this forum wonderfully useful

    The files do need to be demuxed/reconverted into a usable format.
    There's a free program people tout all the time when people ask this question: MPEG Streamclip.
    I use Cinematize as I feel it has more 'finessing' options: http://www.miraizon.com/products/products.html

  • Import .VOB files into iMovie?

    I have copied footage from my camera (don't have that tapes anymore!) to a DVD. Now I want to import the files into iMovie to edit and so but iMovie doesn't recognize the file-formats on my DVD: .VOB
    Can anyone tell me how I can convert these files so I can import them?
    Thank you very much...

    Ok I was right, the stretching is coming from importing it directly into imovies folder. Unfortunately when I drag the dv file into imovies the quality was not as good as HB.
    Now trying the crop method directly into imovies to see if that fixes the stretching as the picture quality seemed much better, if that don't work I'll save it to my desktop using HB at 100% quality as that seems to be the best and then drag it into imovies quality.
    How, if it was you, would you convert the files back to mpeg2? Is there a free converter as I don't have QT pro? Will SC do it in good quality?
    I also thought (hate to use the pc word) but I may store the file in my external hard drive as a quicktime or divx or another format (what will give me the best quality from the other formats) and then do the conversion to mpeg2. Then use something like dvdshrink to make the file dvd size
    Gees what a bummer man! Just as well I have 2 weeks off work. Not quite the way I was hoping to spend it though!
