I record a 1 hour TV program to the hard disk drive on my PAL Panasonic digital HD BW 500. The Panasonic directly writes to a DVD disc. I wish to transfer the DVD to my computer to MPEG format and then trim it in a video editor. The problem is there are 5 VOB files on the DVD but I want one continuous MPEG file. Is it possible to end up with one file?

We have a product specifically designed to extract the VOB files from your DVD. Rip DVD Plus will transfer your DVD video into a single file on your computer. Rip DVD Plus will even allow you to crop and trim the video, so a video editor is not needed. You can download a free evaluation of Rip DVD Plus here
