VOB files

Hi, I am trying to copy a DVD that A friend made of a gig my band did.
What I want to do is make something in either idvd or imovie with a menu and chapters 7 then burn it to disc. My problem is that the files on the disc are things like VIDEO_TS.BUP VIDEO_TS.IFO and VIDEO_TS.VOB and VTS011.VOB etc. I copied these to my harddrive before with DVD Player (I think) & it wouldn't work & have copied it with the disc application that's in utilities, as an image. Still no joy.
Does anyone know how to copy these files and convert them to the correct format for either idvd or imovie? Any help would be most appreciated.
Cheers

Hi
A. iDVD is just for making DVDs from material from iMovie, FinalCut or QuickTime.
It's not a DVD copier.
B. To make a DVD copy - use Apple Disk Util tool - or Roxio Toast™
C. To go from DVD to iMovie You need to convert one way or another:
• Roxio Toast™ can do this
• DVD player -> Camera and a new miniDV tape is another way.
OR -> Read what Karsten collected:
DVD back to iMovie:
.. and here the complete 'full 9 yards' ... :
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3822853&#3822853
DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and
made for any processing as editing... or, as honorable forum member
QuicktimeKirk stated: I use the analogy of the old Polaroid
"instant" cameras. Push the button, wait for the print to develop and
show it off. ..
for using the iLife apps, you have to convert'em first, in
recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds:
• DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
• Apple mpeg2 plugin (19$) + Streamclip (free)
• VisualHub (23.32$)
• Cinematize >60$
• Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
• Toast 6/7/8 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
• connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter
• Drop2DV (free) a free tool claiming to convert DVDs into dv-stream...
• Use iSquint for your conversions : www.iSquint.org

none of these apps override copyprotection mechanisms as on commercial dvds...

PE 3.0 -- Video playback jitters -- content pulled from VOB files

Thanks in advance for any advice!   I pulled 10 minutes of video from a DVD into Elements 3.0, edited it on the timeline and exported it to a DVD. The original content is a dub of a finished TV show burned by a production company.... it's the only copy we can get. My edit excerpts the part of the show that's about a non-profit I help out.
My final output has "jitters" in shots that have motion. The faster the motion -- like zooms or pans -- the more noticible the jitter. You can almost ignore it when playing back on a computer, but on a TV it's really obvious.
The only changes I made to the clips after import were:
          Interpret Footage => conform to D1/DV NTSC widescreen 16:9 (1.2)
          (so that footage matched the original 16:9 format.)
Where do I start troubleshooting? The initial project setttings? Or is this an export problem?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Mark
PS: On the original content, it says on screen before the show rolls that the master is "720P 59.94 16:9" -- but I don't know is if that's just the master or also the DVD

Thanks for all the helpful replies. (Sorry I didn't understand the points system; thought I could tag you all as helpful.)    Elements 3.0 doesn't have that DVD or Hard Drive project setting, but it looks like this is where the trouble lies.
Ridiculous thing is, I have Premiere Pro 5.03... but it will not ingest the VOB files. Each file truncates to 30 seconds, even if the file is already pulled off the DVD and in a folder.   I could not find a solution online to that problem, so I tried Elements which did it easily, except for this jitter.
AVAILABLE PROJECT PRESET SETTINGS:
In PE 3.0, I can change the default project settings by creating a new default preset. In the VIDEO section, If I start with DV - NTSC Widescreen (versus Adobe HDV or DV-Pal) I can create a new preset but it apeears my only changable video options are safe areas and display format. The "Fields" drop down is grayed-out, defaulted to "Lower Field First" and can't be changed. (Nothing else I change seems to make it available to change.)
DISPLAY FORMAT dropdown:
    >30 fps drop-frame timecode
    >30 fps NON-drop-frame timecode
    > frames
Are these settings of any use for this problem?
In the GENERAL section, I can open a dialog called PLAYBACK SETTINGS.   Choices there are broken into "Realtime Playback" and "Export."   In Realtime Playback, I can check or uncheck "Desktop Video."   The default is checked, which let's me select an "External Device" or a setting for aspect Ratio Conversion."   External Device Choices are:
     None
     DV 29.97i (720x480)
     DV 25i (720x576)
     DV 23.976p (720x480)
Those same external device choices are available under EXPORT.
Maybe Elements 3.0 just can't solve this problem... Any thoughts?

DVD - VOB Files - The Lowdown

We often see people trying to edit existing DVD-Videos. Some seem to be able to do this fine, while others struggle mightily. What’s the deal? Why can’t one just Import those VOB files and edit happily away?
Let’s go back to the basics just a bit. A .VOB file is a "Video Object File." As such, and by the DVD-specs., it can contain quite a bit of stuff. Some of this is beyond just the Audio & Video contained in the usually present MPEG-2 file, which is hidden inside the VOB. This VOB can contain subtitles, Menus, and ROM content, to name but a few. With simple VOB’s, one can often play them, if they are just renamed to .MPEG, though not always. In the case where this works, one does not need a DVD software player. Any player program that can handle MPEG-2 can play the file.
The structure and elements of a DVD-Video DVD-5 (4.7GB, single sided, single layer) will be in most cases:
AUDIO_TS folder (usually empty). May also not be present.
VIDEO_TS folder, which contains VIDEO_TS.IFO (Video Manager.info), VIDEO_TS.BUP (VMGI.backup), VTS_01_0.IFO (Video Title #1.info), VTS_01_1.VOB (Video Title #1.video), and more of these, incremented by 1. Depending on the number of "titles" on a particular disc, the numbers can range up to the limit of 99. For Projects from most NLE/authoring programs will only have one "title," so you’ll likely not see more than 4 VOB’s and their accompanying IFO’s and BUP’s. The VOB’s will be approximately 1GB in size, the upper limit.
The title of the "movie" inside the VIDEO_TS folder will be contained in the .IFO and the BUP files. If you open up a DVD-Video in Windows Explorer, you’ll see just the folders, and no name, or anything else. The same is for the file names inside the folder(s). They will look the same for all DVD-Videos, though the exact number of these will differ, depending on the structure and number of discrete titles on the disc. It’s not until one opens the DVD-Video in either a software player, or in a set-top player, that the IFO files will play, allowing the player to then access and work with the .VOB’s, via the instructions that are contained in the IFO and BUP files.
Editing a VOB can be a tricky, as it can contain all those different things. Ripping the MPEG-2 file from the VOB is usually the best approach. That is what PrPro, PE, or other NLE’s (Non Linear Editor) attempt to do. Sometimes, it works fine, but sometimes it does not. Another problem can be when there are multiple VOB’s, as the MPEG-2 files can span multiple VOB’s, as they cannot contain more than about 1GB of data. This is why a DVD-Video can only have 1GB of space for ALL Menus and their elements.
As VOB’s can contain the full menuing structure (this will be the first VOB), unless this structure is done 100% by the DVD-specs, there will be issues. Most DVD-recorders include some form of menuing, and most do not do it perfectly. This WILL create issues. Ripping via software will likely be the only answer, or doing a manual capture from a set-top DVD player, hooked up appropriately to your computer with a capture card, or bridge, and using the software that came with that device. You will not have any "device control," so you must start the capture software, hit Record, and then start your DVD in its player. If you do this, make certain that you capture to DV-AVI Type II w/ 48KHz 16-bit Audio.
Once one has edited the Audio & Video contained in the .VOB(s), the process to get the resulting Project back into DVD-Video form is to Burn to DVD. This is the authoring process.
Three things happen:
1.) The edited file is Transcoded to MPEG-2. If you were working from a VOB already, the Audio & Video material has already been Transcoded to MPEG-2, in which there will already be compression of the data. If you do this again, there will be more compression of the data, resulting in a loss in quality. Some NLE’s can do "smart rendering/encoding." None of the programs from Adobe can do this, as they are designed to work with material captured from a miniDV tape camera. While they can handle other footage, there will be compromises. When designed, DV-AVI Type II was chosen as the base workflow, because that was what most miniDV tape cameras produced. The introduction of flash memory, miniDVD, and hard drive cameras, plus the introduction of HD, has changed things a bit, and will continue to change them over the next versions of the programs.
2.) The folder structure and the necessary files are created.
3.) The above material is then physically Burned to a DVD-Video, or is copied to a folder on the computer in the required, and necessary form and structure.
In the case of the former, one can then play the DVD-Video via a software player on a computer, or on a set-top player hooked to a TV or display device. In the case of the latter, one needs a software player to play the files in the VOB, with the instructions coming from the IFO, or the BUP files.

Now, I use a Panasonic that can play either VHS, or DVD's, and can burn from a VHS to a DVD-Video. However, the only thing that I use the DVD aspect for is doing an archive of the VHS tape. Instead of using that DVD, I use an Analog to Digital (A-D) bridge to get my digitized material to the HDD. The reason for this are two-fold:
1.) When a DVD-Video is created, the digitized material is compressed into MPEG-2 format. When you later want to edit this material, it is already compressed, and in what is called a GOP (Group of Pictures) format, and all frames are not there. You have one traditional Frame, and the next ~ 15 are only "difference" frames, which do not contain all of the info, only links back to that last full Frame, the I-frame. If one is going to edit, they need ALL I-frames, and PrE creates those, so one can edit at a Frame-level. When done, if they want to end up with an edited DVD-Video, that footage will have to be compressed again, into MPEG-2. By doing the capture via the A-D bridge, I save that file to DV-AVI Type II, which is ALL I-frame, and edits nicely in PrE. Then, when finished, and I go to my edited DVD-Video, I only have one MPEG-2 compression, and not the 2 that you will have. The quality is much higher.
2.) As stated above, DVR's, most similar machines and many software authoring programs do not follow the DVD-specs 100%. These results will give problems, and usually with the first VOB, which also contains Menus, etc. The use of an A-D bridge bypasses these problems, as all you have are the pure DV-AVI Type II files w/ nothing else included.
I am a big fan of the Canopus ADVC-300 A-D bridge, but their much less expensive unit, the ADVC-110, or the similar unit, the ADS Pyro AV Link, can do all that you would want. The only real advantage of their 300 model is with the Timebase corrections for color balance and gamma correction, plus other corrections. However, it's more expensive and all of those corrections can be done in PrE, though they do take some work and time. For me, being able to do them at the time of capture saves me time.
There are cheaper A-D units, like the Dazzle, but I don't know of anyone, who's ever gotten them to work. We get dozens of users with them each year. The vast majority throw those units into the trash and go with the Canopus, or the Pyro instead.
Good luck,
Hunt
Here is a recent FAQ addition on this subject.

How can I convert a home movie on dvd(vob file) to edit on imovie?

I had home movies converted to a dvd- the files are vob. Now I want to edit the movies in imovie.
I am having a difficult time converting from vob straight to mov files.
I purchased Quick Time Pro thinking that could do it, but I haven't been able to.
Also, it just says QuickTime Player Version 7.6.4 (518.35) on my computer.
Is it supposed to say QuickTIme Pro?
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

The "Pro" option just unlocks a lot of features in QuickTime Player. If you look at the registration info, it will show if you have Pro installed.
For converting DVD's you have two options; hardware or software.
The hardware option involves connecting a DVD player's analog outputs to a qualified "DV device" (DV camcorder, VTR or converter) then connecting the DV device's Firewire port to your Mac to capture the footage.
The software option involves using an application like DVDxDV or MPEG Streamclip to convert the DVD's VOB files into an editable format that works natively with your chosen NLE.

Creating an ISO file from a bunch of BUP, IFO, VOB files

Hi
First, i want to apologize to all of you if my question is already answered somewhere, i did a search before.
I have a bunch of BUP, IFO, VOB files (from an entire DVD) that i would like to burn into a single .ISO file.
I am looking for the best software to do this. I would have used ImgBurn on my PC i guess... But with my iMac?
Thanks a lot for your much appreciated help!

Yes, the question has been answered before, several times.
The only difference is that you want to create an ISO image, which usually means a raw disk image from another OS (eg, Win or Linux), although Mac OS X can attach or burn such an image.
If you want to create a DVD-Video disc image, then you must use a tool specifically designed for it, if you want to use the image to create DVDs which will play in stand-alone DVD players. That's because such DVDs require a rigid disc layout.
If you want to go commercial, you can use Toast or NTI DragonBurn. Otherwise, Burn, suggested by Alberto Ravasiomay also be a good solution (I'm not sure if it can save disc images, rather than burn them). Other solutions are
DVD Image Utility
<http://geek.thinkunique.org/2007/07/17/dvd-image-utility/>
or, if you can handle the command line,
mkisofs
<http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/cdrecord.html>
(part of the cdrtools kit)
You can also have a look at
Disco
<http://discoapp.com/>
LiquidCD
<http://www.maconnect.ch/>
Both can burn DVD-Video; I'm not sure if they can save as a disc image.
J D McIninch wrote:
Start Disk Utility
DU (or hdiutil) can create an ISO image, and, if it's used to burn to DVD, the disc can be played on computer DVD drives. But it will not play on most stand-alone DVD players, because of the layout issue I mentioned above. Hence, it's not a good idea to use it to create a DVD-Video disc image.

How do I change a .vob file to a .wmv?

I just got my wedding video but the video people screwed up pretty bad, so I want to work on it myself. I tried importing the file as is from the dvd he gave me (a .vob file) it imported but with no audio. I'm pretty new to the whole technical video sidde of this so I'm not sure how to find all the different rates and numbers that I've seenmentioned in other posts. One thing I did do, was I managed to convert it with a trial program of avs converter into different formats aand the .wmv came through with both audio and video! Is there a way to convert it for free (the trial has words on top of the video) or any other ideas? Thanks,
Dovid

Premiere CS6 skips/does not play first second of vob file - while with vlc all fine

Hello everyone!
I am trying to edit vob files (after being ripped on hdd) and Premiere seems to skip the the first second in the media browser, source monitor etc. after import. When opened with vlc-player the vob file is just fine and the first (missing) second (part of a sentence) is there. So I tried to convert the vob file to an avi file with Adobe Media Encoder. Same thing the first second is missing in the avi file. Adobe Bridge - same thing. Same problem with other vob files.
What can I do? Thank you very much for your kind help!
Best, Michael
System: Windows 7 (64) all updated. Master Collection CS6 all updated (Premiere Pro CS6 - 6.0.1 etc.)

Michael,
Is both the Audio and the Video missing from the VOB in PrPro?
Is the Audio DD 5.1 SS in AC3?
Though certainly not YOUR case, if your Audio is DD 5.1, then it is recommended to allow ~ 2.0 sec. of silence at the beginning of the Audio Stream, to allow the equipment to "lock onto" the signal. This most often happens with higher-end DVD/BD players - you are getting similar in PrPro, and not a high-end DVD/BD player.
If you rip the DVD in Audition, or similar, does the entire Audio Stream show up, like it does in VLC player?
One last question, regards your internal HDD, from which you are editing. Is it at least 7,200 RPM, or is it a 5,400 RPM drive?
Good luck, and as should be obvious, I am just thinking out loud here.

Converted VOB file to mpeg with Freemake Video Converter and still not able to load same file in Premiere CS6

I have this project where I needed to change the audio part from a dvd so first tried to load VOB file but Adobe Premiere did not support VOB file so then used Freemake Video Convert tool to convert in to mpeg file so that I can import in premiere timeline. Still no success so I guess its not supported either.

Maybe you are missing some codec. CS6 does support mpeg.

Trying to load a .vob file into iMovie11 but get an error message that the file format is not compatible

can quick time convert this file or do i need additional software?

You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.

To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

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.

Why is audio out-of-synch with video on VOB files

I used a Pioneer DVR to import ~120 8mm and Hi8mm and Digital8 analog tapes to convert them to DVD's. These ~120 DVD's are in VOB format. These are 4:3 video (not HD). I did test this flow and didn't notice a few of the VOB's did not have the audio tracking properly.
When importing them into Premiere Elements 8.01 some of the VOB files have their audio out of synch with the video, yet, they play okay in the Premiere preview window.
Is there a setting so that when it 'conforms', that it will track the audio correctly?
Do I need to buy a conversion tool to go from VOB to mpeg-2 (or other format?) and then import to Premiere Elements 8?
Is there a better video editing tool to use?
I simply want to take all these 8mm tapes / DVD's to splice the best scenes.
I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit AMD Athlon II X4 630 2.8GHz processor, 4GB of DDR3 memory; and installed an ATI HD-4350 pcie gen2 graphics card. I have a memorex bluray dvd player.

Final Cut Pro X and .vob files

Hi
How do I import a .vob file into Final Cut Pro X?
I use an iMac with Mavericks installed.
Thanks

Hi Tom
I've just read through an old post from May 2013 on this forum you answered, found here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5010061?start=0&tstart=0

How to import from DVD (VOB files)

I have PP CS4 version 4.2.1 and am using it on a Windows 7 - 64 bit machine. I have tried several different ways to import the VOB files in order to edit. I am able to view each of the VOB files in the Source Monitor, but I can't seem to put them together. That is, the video I want to edit is found on four of the VOB files.
I have also used AVS Video Converter 6 to rip the VOB files into one AVI file, but when I import the AVI file the video plays at what looks like about double speed and gets way out of sync with the audio.
I am a Premiere Pro newbie, but have lots of experience with Dreamweaver and creating websites. In fact, the final product will be a Flash video.
Any help will be appreciated.

What component do I need to play back .vob files?

A client just handed me a DVD with .vob files. I have streamclip on my machine but a prompt came up saying I need more. What do I do?
Best.

You need to download the Apple MPEG-2 Playback component and install it using MPEG Streamclip. The instructions are on the Streamclip web page or here
