Hi, apparently this prog can join vobs into one large vob file so that I can edit scenes. All vob files are in the same folder and I click on the first vob VTS_xx_1.VOB, a window pops up so I choose the 3rd option to join and it goes through what appears to be the joining process. When this has completed I only see that 5 of the nine vobs have been joined and they are in random mixed order.
Does someone know how to do what I need to have them joined and in the right sequence please.

Hi!All vob files are in the same folderPresuming this is an entire DVD "package" (.IFOs, .BUps, and .VOBs), you can use SmartRipper to re-rip it as ONE .VOB...

Thanks for the suggestion, but the thing is that I want to back up my dvd of the classic Gone With The Wind which is on a single 2 sided disc and then edit out the music intro and exit parts so I still need to join the vobs. I was hoping that someoine has done this type of thing with DVD Lab as I like using it.

is on a single 2 sided discThis is likely the cause of your difficulty, as you actually have two distinct sets of .VOBs (Two different Titles).

I'd still suggest you try using SmartRipper to create one .VOB for each side - and then try to use DVDLab to join the two newly created .VOBs

For those people that are interested in DVDLab it will join vob's but only 4 at a time, any more than that and it comes out wrong. So do it in two lots and then join these. Thanks Setarip_old for your previous suggestions.

For those people that are interested in DVDLab it will join vob's but only 4 at a time, any more than that and it comes out wrong.That doesn't sound like a limitation of DVDLab - rather, I'd guess that your hard drive is in FAT32 format, which limits maximum single filesize to 4Gb.

This can be overcome by using a hard drive formatted as NTFS instead of FAT32...
