Hey all,

I'm looking for a free video file converter that lets me convert VOB files to compressed AVIs. Now preferably I would like to be able to use my own video and sound codecs, but if that is not possible, then as long as the output is good enough I could always convert the AVI that is produced with Virtual Dub or TMPEG to an AVI of my own specifications.

Unfortunately, both TMPEG and Virtual Dub don't appear to support this.

Any suggestions?

Many thanks :)

EDIT: This doesn't have to be one that does all the fancy stuff of ripping them off DVDs by the way, that's by no means essential.

Erm maybe it's my extreme noob-ness then. :o

In TMPEG Plus, when I go to select video source, it just says 'C:\(blah blah blah) is not supported' etc. :confused:
 
Yep, you were right.

It's TMPEG 3.0 Express that has the multi-format support, not the 2.5 Plus.

Problem solved. :)
 
you might also want to take a look at dvdx

i use it allong with the DIVX codec (which it works very nicely with) and it is very robust :)
 
VirtualDubMod accepts MPEG and VOB files as inputs and as the name implies, other modifications such as multiple audio streams, sub-titles, etc while retaining the VirtualDub interface and functionality.
