VOB to... something useful

[Penny Dreadful]

I've been searching all night and have come across quite a few converters, but nothing useful.

I don't suppose anyone here knows of some relatively idiot-proof converter? All the tutorials I've looked into so far has left me feeling technologically retarded. I just need some way to get rid of these huge, useless VOB files.

I used to use Nero, but it's sort of crapped out on me. I kid you not, when I was trying to convert earlier today it completely filled my hard drive with 2-10 minute 2GB video clips.

Anyway, anything but Divx should do. I use Vegas, and that doesn't like Divx encoded files at all.

Get AMVApp and read through this. http://www.animemusicvideos.org/guides/avtech/

I've looked at that tutorial before, but I can't seem to download that program. When it's installing, it stops and tells me to close out programs running it even though there's nothing else running.

SUPER is pretty idiot-proof, but by proxy it's also pretty crappy. If you don't want to go the DGIndex & AviSynth route, it might be a worthwhile alternative.

Then makesure you exit out all of the programs. Alternately, you could download and install dgindex and avisynth seperately, but I wouldn't recommend it. Sometimes amvapp gives me errors too, but I just push throuh them. I've never had an installation fail to work after any installation.

Why? Doing it that way has always worked fine for me (the only problem that happens is that MeGUI takes it upon itself to update AviSynth's plugins folder, and that sometimes breaks the version of DGIndex I use, forcing me to correct it by pulling it down from the official site).

Why?

Because AMVapp rocks.
