I have been converting my DVD collection to MKV files on my computer.
The Process:
Rip DVD to Hard drive using DVD Decrypter Single VOB file and single Chapter file
Add VOB and Chapter files to MKV Merge and mux to create MKV file
The Problem:
Video and Audio of MKV file are out of Sync; the video duration is shorter than that of the original VOB file. This is frustrating since it was working fine for quite a while on many different titles. Now every single title I try has this issue.

I think that MKV is the best format for storing and viewing movies from my hard drive. I use a WD HD TV Media Player.
Yeah, it might be, if you are trying to reduce the size of the video, compress it. However, what you are doing with MKVMerge is just change the container, the "wrapper", it doesn't help you in a ANY way that I can see.The video remains untouched. You could just leave it as one single VOB, or even just rip as an ISO and play it that way.
If you would want to convert to MKV to reduce space, then I could see a reason behind it, but MkvMerge is not the program to use.
