You can cut it with DVDShrink (re-author mode) or AVIDeMux (outputs as MPEG PS) or I believe PCGEdit.

There seems to be some problem in my handling any of these programs to split my VOBs.
Can anyone tell me the steps to do it?

It's pretty easy with DVDshrink.
Load in the DVD image ("Load Files" if it's on your hard drive)then click the "Reauthor" button.
Drag the Title from the right-side box over to the left, then click the two blue arrows facing left and right button, above the left-side box.
In the new dialog box, you have two preview panes and some buttons - one for the start point and one for the end point.
Use the double arrow buttons to move 5 seconds, at a time, and the single arrows to move 1 second. You can see, in the preview pane, where you are, in the video.
Once you've chosen the start and end points, click OK to go back to the original screen.
Click "Backup" and choose a destination for your output to be saved in.
DVDshrink will create a new VIDEO_TS folder with new *.IFOs and *.BUPs for your newly created clip, as well as an empty AUDIO_TS folder.
Create a folder and give it a name that will tell you what the clip is and put the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders into it.
Now, you're ready to do your next clip.
Even on my old, crappy system, a 15 minute clip takes mere seconds to save, as DVDshrink simply copies the video from one place to another - so there's no loss in quality.
As for putting your clips back together, in the end, to create a new DVD, there are a couple of different ways, but my favorite is to use TMPGenc DVD Author.

Well, DVD Shrink worked like a charm to split that DVD. Easy and very fast. Thanks.
Somebody also told me that you can demux a DVD with DVD Shrink too. Do you know how you can do that?

"Somebody" told you a lie, unless "somebody" has a different understanding of what "demuxing" is. You can remove some subtitles/audio/ video from the DVD, but you cannot extract video/audio/subs into separate files. Unless DVD Shrink has been updated and gained new functionality and I did not get the memo...if that were the case, then I'd retract my comment.

Maybe not a lie, probably a misunderstanding on what muxing means.
Generally I use PGCDemux. Do you recommend any other?
I have been re-authoring all my movies, so I can accomodate subtitles better and resize the letters, which are too big on a 42" screen.

Sorry, cannot advise you, did not have the need to demux one DVD yet. Not sure what would make one demuxing program better than others.
However, if all you want is to modify the subtitles, that can be done without demuxin/remuxing(which takes time). You can use DVDSubEdit (freeware) and do the modifications inside the VOBs.

I am doing a lot more involving that sub modification, which can't be handled by DVDSubEdit. First I am modifiying every sub line to be at least 45 character long, and only in two lines. That usually means re-editing the sub a lot, making a new one. Second I am adding new subs. So I do need to demux the discs.
The problem is that, for no apparent reason and non-explained, I am having out of sync situations or discs that do not let add more subs. Till now I haven't been able to clarify the problem, which happens in DVDLab Pro.
