    I have a .VOB file and i renamed it Fags,ShagsandKebabs.VOB (Name of the episode) when i try and convert it for my iPod it says "The Above File Name Is Invalid" this has happened with all the converters i have, and it only happens with this on file all my other .VOB file i have renamed work fine still. It also wont let me rename it. When i right click it there is only the option to play or send to, and when i got to file>rename nothing happens. Anyone know what is going on, im getting desperate now as i really want it on my iPod.

    Probably the *,* makes it invalid

    The comma is probably what's making it invalid. I always rename the file during the conversion process to avoid problems such as that, which I wouldn't be surprised if you stumbled across again for a different reason.

    Just delete the whole filename and rename it FagsShagsAndKebabs.VOB - that should sort it.

    I suggest you re-rip it, Nick. And next time, leave out the comma, as it is the most likely culprit of this problem.
