I'm trying to recode some video files (VOB). approx. 20 minutes each, to Nero Digital so I can edit them. The Recode sequence appears to be working, but when the recoding is done the program has only recoded about the first 1 minute of the file. Settings all appear to be normal.
Thanks for the suggestion, but this *is* a clean install (with the upgrades) doing this.
But, since you mentioned it, I'll ask your advice: I didn't think to try and convert to AVI. In your opinion, what is the easiest format to do video editing? Is it AVI?
I'm trying to take some short scenes from various movies on DVD, edit them, add new dialog/music/sound effects, and then burn a compilation DVD (kinda like they did with "Kung Pow: Enter The Fist" a few years ago). I'm also going to edit in some clips that I did, to kind of tie everything together. It's a little 5 to 10 minute video for work, *if* I can get it all put together.
I know I'm working at a disadvantage by using Nero, but I can't afford one of the better editing programs right now, so I've got to work with what I've got (which is Nero 6, no less!!) :-)
Since you have Nero, you can try Nero Vision to edit your compilation. Not sure if it accepts VOB or not.
Windos Movie maker is another choice. However, the VOBs would need to first be converted to an AVI,WMV or mpeg, so WMM can accept it. You can use VOB2mpg to convert your files before editing.
It seems NV will accept VOB, so no conversion necessary. here's a guide to help you out( and shorten that learning curve that Deadrum is talking about:))
THANKS!! I looked over that tutorial briefly, and it looks like exactly what I needed to get this project going!
The Nero manual doesn't go into that kind of detail, or tell you *why* you're doing certain procedures, like that tutorial does. Much easier to understand.
