About converting DVDs . Does anyone know how to convert DVDs to a avi or a mpeg ? Is there any kind of program that is free that can do that ? I'm not sure if there is anything free or not .

How come when I convert a VOB video file it does not convert all of the VOB file ? Like if a VOB file is about 26 min Long and it only converts about 5 min of the video . Can anyone tell me why it does that ?

Well I did not see anything that said anything like that . That sucks I want to convert all of the DVD not just 5 min of it . Because I have a home video that I put on DVD . Well it was on VHS but I copped to a DVD and I wanna convert it . So I can maybe try to upload it to some web site like YouTube .

if you use this ConvertXtoDvd

its a all in 1 app to convert avi files to dvd < vob files>
as in sharing them on mx its not very senisable to share vob files as its 4.0 gb in size and to d/l that size in vob formmat it would take someone yrs to d/l it
due to the way its made its the raw data of a dvd thats why plp recode a dvd to avi or make a dvd image < iso> file so its a smaller size and plp can get more resorces < arther plp with the same file>
cos it would be you only with a dvd vob files and theres no way to get more plp of that file

not only is there the time factor, but winmx also has a 2gb limit on the size of a shared file, make a file over this & it can't be downloaded ppl ger File Error (i currently can't remember the number) anyhow, they won't share.
