Club CDFreaks - Knowledge is Power - View Single Post - VRO files from Panasonic DVD-RAM TV recorder

in some cases, you can just pull the .VRO files off of the RAM disc, and rename them to .VOB or .MPG. I have found that this method does not always work. The file will become "corrput" and have video errors.
There is an old program called VOB_Tool006 which will scan the disc and detects each scene/segment of the video, and splits them up if you wish. You just select which segments you want (can join them too) and extract them. Output will be a standard VOB file which you can then demux or do whatever you wish with.
Very important that you do all of this from the RAM disc... and not from files copied off of the RAM disc to the HD.
If you have trouble finding VOB Tool, let me know and I can email you a copy.
