I want to do batch converting... is there a faster way?

everytime needs to wait for parsing one by one... very troublesome... T__T

You can also use my mkvmerge (http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/). It's a command line utility which can very easily do batch processing (not like mkvmerge *.avi, but you can emulate that well enough with batch files if I'm not mistaken).

I guess you are converting OGM files to MKV right ?
Each time you open an OGM (or MKV) file in VDM we have to parse the whole file.

If you only want to transmux the file without editing your clip, you can do it in VDM for the first file, adding the processing in the Job queue, then close VDM (you have to close it because it holds the jobs in memory and modifying the job file while VDM is opened is useless) and go open your VirtualDubMod.jobs job file.

Then you can copy'n'paste your job, changing the name of the source and destination file.

Launch again VDM and launch the jobs.
Of course for each job the source OGM file will have to be parsed but at least all the jobs will be done automatically without you having to do anything.
