Hey, ive been using DVDShrink to cut out segments off an ISO & i end up with a VOB file which when played is very slim & tall, like the opposite of widescreen.

Is this normal?

How can i adjust it back to a normal square shape?

Does it have to be burned to DVD first then re-ripped to an mp4 or something?

Even when i convert the VOB to Mpg or Mp4 its still shaped strangely.

I was also wondering if theres an easier way to put the start/end markers in without just looking at the picture...

Thankyou in advance for any help...

Sounds like your ISO is messed up. Try re-ripping the movie.

99% of all problems are between the computer and the chair.

My orignal ISO is totally fine....

Before i backed up to HD Folder VOB's etc...which played a weird shape, but then i burned the VOB to a DVD and it played fine, fit my TV screen perfect. But the VOB file (or any of its converts) still wouldnt play normally on my pc/itunes/ipod.

BUT then i thought why not back up as ISO (in DVDShrink), then convert that ISO to a video file, & it worked fine!

So the trick is for DVD compilations create VOB's, but if you want to make a video file out of your work on DVDShrink, save as ISO, then convert the ISO with a prog, i used Handbrake...dont think theres too many other progs that do is straight to video...


Sweet!
