Hi,
I am building a web for a friend. He wants me to put a video up on the web page. The disc is a dvd it's not copy protected. The files are in .vob format but they are huge 122 megs or so. Too big to stream on the web I think and besides I am using front page which won't allow me to put a .vob up for some reason and besides that the webhost told me to convert it to a mpeg1 or mpeg2. There are also .ifo and .bup files on the disc. I tried some free tools that allow the .vob to be ripped down to mpeg1 or mpeg2 or mpeg4 / divix. Since the software I tried are free (one "ImTOO DVD Ripper SE" is unstable/unusable) and the other ("#1DVD Ripper SE" won't do the whole video it stops somewhere in the middle of the video...probrobly because it is free and they want to sell it)...
What is available that is free and to not time limited or limited in any other way that will let make a usable file such as mpeg1 or maybe a mpeg4 or divix??? Oh if I make it into a divix then wouldn't anyone that wants to view it need that codec on their computer?
