Importing .vob, .bup, .iso files with win movie maker 2.1

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

You need to search google for a convertor to get these files into avi file
types. Search for dvd ripping.

Graham, I downloaded VirtualDubMod but I'm not sure if I'm using correctly.
It took 40 minutes to convert one .vob file on the dvd which has about 10
..vob files. The help menu wasn't very helpful. Is there anything out there
easier to use?

It is a long process I'm afraid. I've never used one of these apps, but have
come across dvddecryptor, I think it's called.

One trick is to use DVD Decrypter to create one single (giant) VOB file on
the hard drive, then use TMPGENC to create a MPEG2 file from that.

You can use IMtoo (www.imtoo.com) to convert your .vob files into .mpg files.
It works well.
